A DIY duo dream come true. Two complete strangers (Maureen Anders and Adria Ruff) began their DIY blog and online party styling business together on a whim in 2010. Fast forward 6 years and the dynamic duo launched their flagship brick and mortar, AR Workshop, in downtown Pineville June of 2016. Within 3 years, the brand expanded to over 140 incredible franchised locations in 30+ states with more to come!
