AR Workshop Brandon - Valrico, Florida

Mike Dickinson

Our team at work came in for a team building activity. AR Workshop was great! They were very friendly, funny, easy to work with, and NOT pretentious like some places/people in the crafting world can be. They were very helpful in teaching how to do each project step by step. The projects all came out great and we had a full range of experience levels in the group. Just an overall awesome experience and I will be going back for sure with the family. I'm a graphic designer and I highly recommend AR Workshop.

I recently attended the candle-making class at AR Workshop Brandon, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a cozy, chill atmosphere and an incredible selection of scents—perfect for unleashing some creativity. As a first-timer at candle pouring, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy the instructions were to follow, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free.

The owners were fantastic—attentive, knowledgeable, and always ready to share tips and tricks to make sure we got the best results. If you're looking for a fun, creative activity in a relaxed setting, I can't recommend this class enough!

We went here for a birthday party for a friend and it was absolutely amazing. The girls who helped us were SO nice and professional. The whole experience was enjoyable. I will definitely be back for more crafts!

Rachel, John, and their AR Brandon team helped to throw the most incredible baby shower! I could not have been more pleased! They helped with everything and made the day extra special!

They made the experience memorable, and I can't wait to return. The workshop offers a wide range of craft ideas and projects, so there’s always something fun and creative to make. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced crafter, you’ll find plenty of inspiration. Thank you for making it such a wonderful time!"

Rachael and John are phenomenal people! From the moment I walked into the workshop, they have been so kind and welcoming. We had a private event and had a great time! Our group really enjoyed creating their crafts, being guided by a great team and having such an awesome space to be creative in. The talent they both bring (and their team) to their shop is truly remarkable. If you haven't checked them out, what are you waiting for? We will absolutely be having more events in their workshop in the future.

A group of us attended an event here as part of a bonding outing. We had the most amazing time. John was so kind and detail oriented through the whole process. He communicated with us via email about changes to our projects before the event and was hands on during the creations, but only as much as he needed to be. He gave us creative freedom but also advice on what would look based on our visions. Plus being a veteran owned business was a huge plus to this military family! The only downside is now we have more ideas that we want to make!

Our Krewe of the South Shore Marauders Foundation hosted a fundraising Craft social to kick off our new season! We had a great time crafting & learning about the amazing owners! Things were very well explained, the process was easy (other than picking out our own colors because there were so many choices) & our teenagers even had fun! We cannot wait to come back again!
