I took the Intro to Blockprinting class this past weekend and overall, it was fun. I have been…read morelooking into picking up a new hobby or get into more craftin' to get in touch with my creative side. The class was $42 from 10:30a to noon. It is an open space with all sorts of art supplies, tools, and just about anything your imagination can muster up. Lots of inspiration. I was hoping to make more than just one small block and have different supplies like fabric for printing. It was very therapeutic to carve my small block. The class felt a little scattered - but it was a very easy going environment, super relaxed. Our instructor was friendly and encouraged us to tap into originality without overthinking it instead of looking up patterns or inspo on our phone. I really liked that. And she offered us all coffee, freshly made. You can basically come in to do all the arts and craft your heart desires, on a donation basis. Affordable and unique way to release your artistic side without investing too much in all the supplies and then an abandoning a hobby. I'd come back with a friend and check out a different class.

I went here as part of a work event to make lanterns for Lunar New Year . Stepping inside, I was…read moreimmediately greeted by an organized haven of craft supplies. They had construction paper, ribbons, highlighters, stamps, hot glue guns, and anything you might find at Michael's. Our instructor was very knowledgeable and showed us how she made her lanterns. She walked us step-by-step through the process. Now, I'm not a crafty person, but I was inspired enough by the ambiance and overflow of art supplies to get some creative juices flowing. At the end, I was able to create my own lanterns with some creative twists. I had a fun time and will recommend my crafty friends to check this place out!

I came here to look for office supplies for my business. I must admit, they sell a lot of different…read morethings. I didnt know that, and it was a very nice surprise. I found some things I wasn't looking for, but that I needed and wanted. I saw beautiful pieces I wanted just for myself, like separate or broken jewelry pieces--a clasp here for a necklace or a link for a watch. Also, I recently picked up an old knitting habit and wanted to replace some old yarn. It was nice to see an area dedicated to yarn, other crafts, and other hobbies. I can say I really got lost inside the store, discovering so much. I saw some frames to purchase to make a gallery wall. So, I will say this: if you need to revise a place or restock on some office supplies, please come here. Or if you just need some ideas on creating a space in your home, come here; it's a place where anyone can get a lot of ideas and inspiration.

Ohhh emmm geee... this place is amazing! I've been wanting to check this place out for a long time…read moreand for some reason it never worked out. But Sunday it was meant to be. This place made my artsy creative heart happy, but also made my need for things to not go to waste happy. Literally any craft project you can think of, they're going to have supplies for it and they're going to be dirt cheap! They also have greeting cards, They also have seasonal decor, jewelry, vintage items, stationary, frames, the list could go on forever. Good idea to just go check it out because I promise you will find something you've been looking for and didn't want to pay full price for!!

I try to support small businesses when I can so I try to avoid looking at the price on Amazon, but i did in this instance and it was 30% more inexpensive in store for this particular item.

Over the last several months I've been decorating a shipping container and Paper Work was the first place I thought of for art. My new space looks amazing with all the different pieces I got from here and I feel good knowing I'm supporting locals rather than Target. I give Paper Work 5 stars when I wish I could give them 10. The staff is amazing, the owner is incredible and I always find something for me or for a gift. If you live in Austin, you should come here more often. If you are visiting, this is the place to shop and buy gifts for everybody who couldn't come to Austin with you.

You can find especially good deal during the season change. At the moment, they have up to 70% off on fake plants and patio/balcony decorations. Some more niche and specific things are a little hard to find in store and there never seems to be anyone who works there on the floor except for one person at the front. So if you don't have an app you might wander for a little bit before you find everything. I strongly prefer to order a pick up here for the aforementioned reason as it is usually ready in under 2 hours.

It's the perfect place to shop for gifts, with all sorts of trinkets and and toys, unique cards for all occasions, craft supplies for young and old, and generally all sorts of things you never knew you needed until that very moment. They cram a lot into that compact space without making it overwhelming. The real crowning jewels are the authentic, antique printing presses that are a couple hundred years old, and still cranking! It's amazing to see that piece of history in action. Plus, staff are so kind and clearly passionate about what they do. They'll talk to you for hours about printing, if you want. It's the kind of "only in Austin" business that I want to support.

There's a wonderful selection of home goods (incense, bath items, skincare, kitchenware, etc), gorgeous pottery (I bought myself a beautiful mug that actually originated from a studio in the SF Bay Area, where I live - but the studio is not open to the public!), stationery and much more. I felt like there was a good range of prices and there was plenty that was affordable. The staff was very kind - the lady who rang up my items dropped the travel watercolor palette and immediately went to get me a new one "just in case". So nice! I definitely recommend this store and would be here all the time if I lived here!
