They have expensive stuff (mainly the jewelry in the cases, aka everything I had my eye on), and they have nicely priced items. They have a section for babies, and a section for cats, An area with drinking paraphernalia, gag and awesome gifts, shirts, jackets, posters, nerd items, and the list continues. Please keep in mind that all of these "areas" seamlessly bleed together, making it extremely easy to burn a lot of time, and spend a lot of the monies. You can walk through this store over 20 times and still find items you hadn't previously noticed. Prices are fair (minus the hand made jewelry ones), and the service is great. The shop is dog friendly, so while we were there, a 6 week old puppy came in (Pablo?) and stole my heart. Visit this store! It's great!

Just be careful, some of those nice handmade ones can be a bit pricey (I saw one for $18...yikes!). But if you want to wow them (or want to avoid Hallmark), it is there. They also have a lot of cute gifty items, an assortment of books, and candy, which makes them a pretty good one-stop-shop for gifts. It is also probably one of the better stores to also stop at if you are just "window shopping" around Old Town. That all being said, in all honesty I probably wouldn't make a special trip to Old Town for most of my general card needs, just for those special occasion and when I am already in the neighborhood. In all: Great, unique card selection that is definitely worth a stop at!

The sweet lady working there was super friendly, and when she asked if any of my purchases were gifts I was surprised when she offered to gift wrap them! I wasn't even charged extra, and she did a great job making my gift of Colorado socks for husband look extra special. My kids had a good time checking out all the neat things too, plus they have a bathroom which was very convenient for my 5 year old to use. I ended up buying a new sling bag/purse which seems very high quality, themed socks for my husband, a cute wine bottle topper that "chirps" when you pour the wine, and a "dammit doll" which I had actually been looking for one for a very long time and was super excited to finally find one! I felt for an old town/Main Street store, the prices were fair. Be aware, along with state tax there is also. "Windsor town tax" added to your bill as well.

This was the go to shop in Fort Collins for years. Sadly Marcy ( who is just a gifted framer & a…read morenice person) is gone & this shop has changed owners. I brought an original piece of western art in for reframing, mainly because Marcy helped frame another painting years ago & did an exceptional job. BIG mistake! First, the owner handled my art without wearing protective gloves and second, many of the moldings that were chosen were out of stock so a huge waste of time. She also took personal cell phone calls while I just stood there, as if my time and business were not the priority. I felt incredibly disrespected during the entire process and should have bailed right away, but again, I think I was still not fully aware that this shop had taken such a dive. Then there was the price. All framing is pricey, but this was outrageous. She quoted me $1400.00 . I decided to just do it as I had a time constraint , but later found the original frame & decided to tweak that. She was very rude about that even though it was the same day. It took over 3 weeks to complete a VERY simple job. Yeah, won't be back! So disappointing . A total waste of time, emotions and money.

My 5 star rating comes from a recent experience we had in the store. My family member recalled out of the blue that they had once dropped off a piece of art and had it spec'd here roughly ten years ago but had forgotten to follow up. Most of us feared that the piece had most likely been forgotten or otherwise lost in some way. Without a receipt or paper record, there would be little chance of finding the painting... or so we thought. Upon arriving at Old Town Art & Framery after ten years, my relative was greeted by Marcy, who not only remembered his full name, but also the artist of the painting and where it was stored! 10 minutes later we had the painting in hand and fresh plans to continue the framing efforts! Thanks, Marcy!
