As a veteran teacher, the two weeks before a new school year starts can get a little chaotic... but…read morethe amazing people at Island School and Art Supply make things so easy! The store is so neat and organized, the lamination is very reasonably priced and there's a super quick turnaround time (if you decide not to wait, which is a GREAT service to have for people on the go!), AND the best part is that the people that work there (and I believe one of the owners) are probably the nicest, most caring and considerate people that could be handling what has the potential to be a super stressful time for us. For as long as I am a teacher, I will continue to make this my go-to supply store.

However, there's an elderly gentleman who is sometimes there, and I've overheard him making racist remarks about people of color. That is incredibly offensive, and so I've decided to take my business elsewhere. This is 2021. There's no place for that kind of 1950s thinking anymore, old man.

I can't recommend Picture It in East Meadow enough! For our first anniversary, I brought in an…read moreoriginal watercolor painting to be framed, and the results are nothing short of stunning. The craftsmanship is remarkable--the attention to detail is incredible, especially how they perfectly matched the wood tone to the matting and the artwork itself. It's one of those things I could never pull off on my own, no matter how hard I tried. True professionals through and through. They had the piece ready in a timely fashion without ever feeling rushed--quality clearly comes first. And the owner? The nicest person you'll meet. Warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping you get it just right. If you've got something special that deserves the perfect frame, this is your spot. We'll be back!

Unfortunately I have not yet had the privilege to use the services of Bedford Stationery, but I did…read morewant to leave a review here because the owner, Steve, is amazing. I work for a Pediatric Urgent Care office nearby and one of the patients' parents must have written the wrong phone number or may have written it sloppily. So when we were doing our callbacks today we called him by accident. First and foremost he has the best answering machine message ever. Secondly he was kind and courteous enough to call us back and inform us that we must have the wrong number. To take time out to help us was very kind and I also admire how he artfully added "unless of course you were looking for stamps, printing services...". I appreciate the skills. I will certainly be going to Bedford Stationery next time I have a Stationery need.

I'm not one to believe in stone therapy, but she was able to get and/or give answers when I was curious about what type of stone it was, or why it's so rare/costly, etc. They have some artist designed pieces which is really cool that they're helping out other communities. A lot of the stones are polished or shined. Some are in their raw state. If you purchase a pendant, chains are sold separately. I bought two small rings, two chains, and two pendants and I am happy with my purchase. Inside is well organized, though there are a lot of different stones to look at and it's clean as well. Happy shops!

Visit Date: January 14, 2022…read more I was home doing a bathroom dance because we have one bathroom and my sister was in it, and I went to take off all my crystal bracelets (4 of them) and I ended up taking them off my wrist too fast in my bathroom dance process and all 4 of them broke apart. Beads all over the floor in the room I'm currently storing my stuff in where my son sleeps at my dad's. I made a decision, no more crystal jewelry except for one black tourmaline bracelet and I won't be buying another black tourmaline bracelet unless the one I have breaks which has happened a few times already. So I had some time before I had to pick up my son from school and I was off for coming into work on Saturday. I found lovestoned and wanted to check them out so I drove over. I looked around the store there's so much goodness I wanted to buy. I got a black tourmaline bracelet and an adventurine heart. From now on I'm buying crystal pieces and just placing them wherever I would like them to be to fulfill whichever purpose. I put the heart in my wallet to attract money even though it's likely the only money I'll be getting is my paycheck, an amended tax return I've been waiting an eternity for and my 2021 tax return if I'm getting one. But maybe it will help me get extra unexpected money we'll see. The set up here is nice and beautiful. I love every crystal store I've been in but one in Merrick although I love it and it is peaceful doesn't have that spiritual vibe set up. One day if I ever have oodles and oodles of money I would be dropping it in crystal stores, places with rapper merchandise, guitar center, vegan places, tattoo shops and on travel and food unless my interest and taste change.
