Thrilled there IS an art supply store in downtown, so let's start there. Presumably, they get a lot…read moreof business from artists in the Stutz, since that's where they are. It's a petite shop, so, no surprise, they have a limited number of things available. I needed some last minute supplies for a class and didn't find everything I needed, but some. It was worth going, though since I'd rather support a local art supply shop. A quick list of things I know they had: colored pens, pencils, inks, sketch pads/ papers, water colors, gesso, all sizes of mechanical pencil refills, markers and more. They also have a loyalty rewards program.

**NOTE: address in Yelp has not been updated since their move. Now located at 150 Old School Way,…read morewhich is at the corner of Old School Way and Pittman House Way (it's a bit off the beaten path and the street address came up wrong on both my GPS, car nav system, and smartphone - the shop was actually two blocks away from where they mapped). Shop is chock full of hard to find crafting supplies. While their focus is on scrapbooking and card making (paper, embellishments, loads of stamps, stickers, etc.), they have a fair variety of inks, glues, color pens, and even some media products that can be used in a variety of craft or art projects, not necessarily paper-related. Products are definitely unique compared to what you find at chain craft stores - even some papers specifically printed with local pictures and graphics are available. Everything has samples to view, both so you can get a notion of how products finish and get project ideas. Apparently, they also offer classes.

This is the place that mounted my Neighborhoods of Indianapolis Naplab poster. You know, the big…read moreblack and white poster that is about 42x46 and extremely awkward (and expensive) to hang and frame? Yes, that one. My boyfriend actually heard about this place from a frame shop that recommended them specifically for this poster. I was given several options - foam board, gator board, trimmed, glossy or satin, etc. I am extremely satisfied with the end result. Since the poster is so large, mounting it on light but sturdy gator board allowed me to hang it up with 3M clips. When you frame this poster, it becomes so heavy from the glass and frame that you have to have it professionally mounted on your wall. Not with Marbaugh! Don't feel like this is a shortcut - I would suggest Marbaugh for any poster or paper item you have that may be too awkward or expensive to frame. They also turned this around in 24 hours!

We came on a rainy Saturday morning around 11:30 and this place gets a lot of business! Even so,…read morethere's plenty of tables and seating so we had no issues with finding a spot and painting for hours. When you come in it will probably take you some time to first pick an item to paint. They have a variety of options to choose from with various price points. The price includes all the materials and supplies as well as the glazing process and the excellent service you receive. They do a great job with labeling paints, having different size brushes, switching out jars of water, and checking on you throughout the process. I will say that since it's best to paint 3 hours it takes a lot longer than you would think. So come with the mindset of getting lost in the therapeutic process of painting. We took 4 hours to paint our items. We will have to come back to pick up our items. They have a sign and provide clear communication on when to expect our items back. We had such a blast. I noted they have a party room that can be reserved so this would be a fun way to celebrate a special occasion! Will definitely be back to paint some more.

It ranges from $5 to $50 and many are around $20 or $30. It was interesting to see all the options! I would have liked a few $10 options but we settled on two things each as a celebration. You pay and then they set up yup with a table and brushes. They have paint labeled with colors as well and a multitude of stencils and stamps plus other gadgets that you can use for your creation. They mentioned several times that you need to paint everything three coats in order to have a vibrant color. I will say that takes much more time than one would think so definitely give yourself time to paint several layers without rushing. My only other thought was next time I would pick a bigger object for our small ones to do as opposed to the tiny hand. Painting was very frustrating for them. We were able to help, but next time e Id pick only big easily painted objects. It was a fun airy spot with lots of tables and creativity abounded! Once you are done they fire your objects and you come back later to pick them up. I would definitely go back and try something else with friends or for a date night even.
