Imagine a one-hour escape where you get to design your very own resin tumbler or water bottle—a perfect blend of creativity and hands-on crafting. For just $45 per person, this instructor-led activity takes place in Pembroke Pines, a short drive from the vibrant heart of Fort Lauderdale. Led by friendly staff, you’ll have the chance to choose from a wide palette of colors, glitters, and shimmers, turning a blank 20oz tumbler or sports water bottle into a personalized masterpiece.
What we love about this experience is how accessible it is—no prior crafting skills needed—plus the opportunity for customization, whether you’re adding initials, logos, or fun stickers. We also appreciate that the studio provides all necessary materials, making it a hassle-free activity.

It’s also worth noting that upgrades to larger or more customized tumblers come at an additional fee, so budget accordingly if you’re seeking a larger or more personalized design.

The Step-by-Step Process
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by your instructor—likely a friendly guide named in some reviews—and introduced to the materials. All your supplies are provided, so you just need to bring your creativity and a willingness to get a little messy. The process involves selecting your base color, adding glitters or shimmer effects, and carefully applying resin to your chosen tumbler.
The instructor walks you through each step, ensuring you understand how to layer your design perfectly. For beginners, this guidance makes the activity accessible and relaxing. Kids as young as 3 can participate with parental supervision, although the activity is primarily designed for those over 13 for the full experience.

Once your design is complete, the tumbler is left in the studio for drying, which typically takes a couple of days. The studio contacts you within 10 business days for pick-up, usually around the 2-day mark, or shipping arrangements can be made. This drying process is a small delay but ensures your creation is fully cured and durable when you finally take it home.
