Although that may be true, if a customer enters a store before closing time, they should be served or at least helped in a considerable way.

I walked out with a bag of little surprises for my 4 year old for under $15. Actually way better than the "toys r us" inside the Macy's, which was bleak. The folks who work here were very nice and helpful. Recommend!

They are always friendly and willing to help. They definitely have the most variety of fabrics I've seen in the area. While some can be pricey I promise they're worth it! They also have plenty of rotating quilt bundles if you need inspiration! Bonus that they also have good technicians if you need to get your machine serviced. I will say my only complaint is I wish there were more fabric types. They obviously specialize in quality cotton/linen fabrics but I would love to see more types!

I was in Stevensville with my daughter and grandchildren and entered this cute shop. We were very…read moreimpressed with all the different items they had for sell by local artists; pillows, books, jewelry, oils, soaps, art supplies, wax/wax warmers, painted shoes, paintings, wood carvings, stones, and so many items I can't name them all here. It was great having a wide variety to pick from! The owner was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful! She even called one of the artists to answer my daughter's question about the exact content in the artisanal wax due to allergies. The paintings and home decor items were unique and representative of the charming community. There were multiple rooms and one even showcased some beautiful paintings. We made several purchases and will definitely visit next time we are in the area!

Maybe I'm just not a good critic of local art, but I really wasn't impressed. I was in…read moreStevensville on a Sunday afternoon, just browing some of the local shops and enjoying a lazy Sunday, saw the sign for this place proclaiming that they had a wide variety of artists, so I thought I'd check it out. Once inside, instead of exciting local art, I found a lot of jewelry, soaps, and a LOT of photgraphs. That was about it. They had a sign in the back of the store indicating that there was more art that way, but all I found was more soaps. Nothing really jumped out at me to say "you MUST take me home!" To top it off, the proprietor kept following me around, not-so-discreetly acting like he was reviewing the books, straightening a display, or some other mundane task, but I really got the feeling that he was suffocating me, perhaps thinking I was going to steal something. When I decided to leave the store, another man (who I assume was the proprietor's friend) said to me, "You can't leave, you need to buy something." Well....yes, I can leave, and no, I don't need to buy anything.

The only thing I was not a fan of was that most accessories did not have a price on them, so you constantly had to ask for pricing.

Welcoming, warm, and energized - Haven and Rose were amazing guides in their stunning store today! My mom and I had put in preorders with them for canvases from Market and went to pick up and "accidentally" fell in love with a trunk show they had and had to snag another canvas.

Something for everyone and every room in your house. Why can't I come in this store to just pick up a few items. Trust me that is EXTREMELY HARD to do! I just know everytime I come in here. I will spend at least $100 or more. Am I complaining? Of course not! Just be prepared to stay for quite sometime. I already know. I even purchased a huge hobby lobby shopping reusable bag. I have so many pictures, bathroom accessories, household furniture, etc. This is a very religious store. Get all of your religious items here. FYI this store is closed on Sundays. They had a few cash registers open so the line moved quickly. Service was prompt! Looking forward to returning.

I enjoyed my first shopping experience here. I had to take a drive to get here but it was worth the…read moretrip to see all the amazing supplies they carry. I'll definitely return again simply because of the assortment of options for every medium you can think. Be advised you'll need to find street parking (I easily found something nearby). So since i paid for the hour I took the time to do a lap of the store. I was greeted quickly by the staff (assisted with directions for the supplies I came for). They were sure to check on me and my progress and helped me sign up for future discounts. I think it's definitely worth the drive to come if you're having a hard time finding a specialty brand or niche supply. They carry everything you can think of. Some more reasonably priced (as well as more premium products for those who want to splurge).

The owner is a lovely lady who keeps limited hours making it worth your while to schedule an outing here. She offers a number of frankly unprecedented shopper discounts and loyalty perks. The store itself is off the main street and not in a place for walkin patronage. Rather it is a little gem tucked in with seemingly a very loyal clientele. My friend and I made a special trip here and regular customers were stopping in throughout our visit. The store is full of wonderful paper products from all over the world. I purchased papers from Germany, Japan and Hungary to name a few of the lovely, artistic and unusual papers . The shop carries many current and popular brands usually available only on line. The shop also carries many items for altered art projects and paper crafting , metal dies, stamps, inks, and mixed media. There is a small well stocked classroom where classes in various techniques are generally held on alternate Saturdays. If you are a paper crafter, card maker, or altered or mixed media artist, support this shop and tell your like minded friends. This shop is well worth the drive and visit!

But Easy Street is a gem and is my "go to" place for tasteful, stylish and contemporary HANDMADE gifts that you don't find elsewhere (particularly at the Mall).

Can't always resist the temptation for myself, and more than a few Easy Street items adorn my Eastport home. Megan and her staff are always friendly and helpful, and do a nice job with the gift wrapping. Easy Street is a MUST and trust me, you will be sure to thank me for this tip!
