Scrap book making is an art form that we teach, demonstrate and have custom creations on the store shelves. Alcohol Ink has revolutionized many aspects of the paper art craft as you make your cards, wall art or scrap books. Impressing Ideas Rubber Stamp Boutique has been at the leading edge of card, color art, scrapbook and mini-album making since 1997! Through each new paper craft technique that has emerged, Impressing Ideas has continued to innovate new card designs, adapt older paper crafting ideas and new classes to teach crafters and artists concepts in utilizing art supplies they already own. True… Impressing Ideas is an art and craft supply store, but the decades of knowledge in rubber stamping, mini album and scrap book making makes the classes taught at the Impressing Ideas Beach Studio all the more beneficial!

My daughter and I discovered this delightful fabric shop while we were soaking up some coastal…read moregoodness a few weeks ago. Did we need fabric? No. Did we leave with fabric? Maaaaaybe. (Okay, you called my bluff! Yes, we did.) Firstly, Center Diamond has a fabulous selection of fabrics and the prices are more reasonable than you'd expect. The fabric is sorted into themes and by color-- a feast for the senses! Maybe it's because I've spent most of my time at Joanns (R.I.P.) I was delightedly surprised that they carry flour sack towel fabric. It had never occurred to me to make my own kitchen towels! They have an extensive variety of tools and notions as well as fun vinyl decals to showcase one's sewing love. There's a great selection of patterns with finished samples for inspiration and several kits and a mahoosive selection of stackers, fat quarters, and jelly rolls. The staff was wonderful here! They were incredibly friendly, helpful, and fun. We bought a pattern and they even printed it out for us. My daughter and I can't wait to return! If you're a fabric crafter, do yourself a favor and stop into Center Diamond, you won't be disappointed!

I'd much rather just have mid-to-low regular prices without all the SPECIAL DISCOUNT hullabaloo, but that's not an option, and not the fault of the local store. With that out of the way, they have a reasonably good selection, kind and helpful staff (some of the cutters are pretty gruff, but that's ok with me), and if you can be disciplined about only buying what you need when it's on sale, it's a good local resource. I do wish their art supplies section were better stocked so I could get more of those things when I'm in for fabric purchases, but Dots N Doodles in Astoria is a fantastic place to get paints, etc.
