They have a wonderful selection--everything from canvases to clay supplies and of course painting supplies. Today we picked up new oil pastels on a great deal of $2.49 each if you buy 6 or more. We also selected some of their value packs of canvases (although they also sell individual canvases) and a wide variety of paints. Something I love about this store is that several times a year, they select a nonprofit to run a donation drive for. You can buy items they put on a shelf for the nonprofit and the items go directly to that agency. It is so nice to see stores organizing for the community!

I thought it was so cool that I got to go behind the counter and pick frame options off the wall - they really have everything you could ever need! We found a matte and frame that worked well with my other degree, which I brought for reference. The whole thing was under $300, which was very reasonable for what I ordered! They also gave me a discount for being a first-time customer and they also offer teacher discounts! The framing was estimated to take 6 weeks, which was a little long. However, the wait is worth it, as they custom-order and shape the frame to your needs. My order was finished in a little less than that timeline, which I appreciated. They also gave me hanging advice and tips for where it would look best. I love how it turned out and will definitely be back when I next have something special to commemorate!

You can find just about anything you are looking for here - they have things for kids & young adults, college students, new parents and everything in between and onward. They have stationary, candles, artwork, skincare, books, stickers, candies, kitchen ware, earrings & jewelry... the list goes on! My favorite place to buy a gift not just for others but myself as well. Also they have tons of events! Queer craft club, ceramic workshops, candle making, sip & shop nights, and so much more. It's a wonder how the owner can do it all and make it look so easy. Spenser is a gem of a human being and was extremely helpful when I need help finding the right gift or even just to have a good chat . Sacramento and the surrounding region benefits from having spaces like this not only for retail goodness - but also for the amount of work put in to build community and support the artists/vendors that are in the area. So glad they are located on R street!
