The shop, as well as the classroom, is clean, well organized and stocked with anything I've needed and the cost of products has been comparable or less than Amazon or other fabric stores. Whenever I visit Runs With Scissors or attend one of their classes, I feel welcomed and comfortable. The atmosphere has always been upbeat, healthy, and welcoming. I plan to continue to make new friends, take many more classes and shop at Runs With Scissors.

You won't regret it.

Owners are such kind people. Loving souls helped me out so much and were patient with me so much. I was a kid at a candy store with all the amber I saw. Prices are good priced. Some are higher which is reasonable and some are cheaper again reasonable as well. They also got gems and jewelry. I spent here almost 2 hours. Was able to learn from Amber of where they came from which this store has many from Poland where the owners are originally from. Was able to see and touch the Amber and jewelry I wanted without feeling I should purchase. I did buy 2 but I will be coming back for more.

Out of all the shops I visited, Back Country Jewelery Rock & Mineral was by far the busiest! I can see why, although it is a tight squeeze between people going into and out of the shop, there were some beautiful stones, rocks, and jewelery to look at! They were very organized and had a big selection of special stones... I found a beautiful small Dalmation Jasper for my daughter. It's one of her favorites! It was a tiny piece for only $2! I found a small box of tumbled rocks, some shaped like hearts... like the one I always wear. I picked up an obsidian heart for my daughter bc she likes mine so much. I loved that it was made into a necklace and had the piece on it. All I need to do is get a chain for it. I also like the black hematite rings, and I found them there. There smething about how dark and plain the band is draws me towards it. I have many of them, but none of them are like the other... and somehow, I see them all differently... and although they look alike, I remember where I got each one.. The man working at the counter was so nice. His name is David. Apparently, there was a gothic event at the fair grounds and he asked me if I had attended... I can see why he would ask me that, lol. When he added up my items, he used a calculator to l to get my total. Then, he gently wrapped each item that I was buying and put it in the bag. I like that BCJRM takes mobile payments. It makes checking out bvery convenient and fast. The whole check out service was on the slower side, but I also enjoyed talking to David. It's nice to not be in a rush while you are enjoying your day. Whether you are window shopping or coming in for something specific, this store is a true gem... full of 1000's of actual gems, stones & rocks! What you call them is honestly in the eye of the beholder...
