Great place to bring kids for a birthday party. On the other hand, nice quiet time for yourself. Melanie can help you bring your concept to fruition, or get you started on a project to match your skill if you're unsure of what you want to do. read more

From the Business

Specialties

My studio is a unique space to create original works of art or stop in to paint ornaments for the season or fairy houses/crazy plates. I am a world traveled certified art teacher with a kiln and interesting art supplies. I can help you make something from a blob of clay or have pre-made projects ready for you and your friends. I always have beads and paint on hand for non clay projects as well. Displayed in this space are primitive Native American pieces and leaf jewelry I have created for sale. 25 Liberty Street is situated on a piece of property with extensive flower gardens and unique tree specimens that are used for my clay work pieces. Give a ring or stop by!

History

Established in 1997.

Caballos del Mar was created as a business to sell my primitive pottery pieces at craft shows throughout the state of Connecticut and later morphed into an open studio space/shop.

Their professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. Most recently, they framed my 30" x 40" artwork and took special care throughout the entire process. They even hand-delivered the finished piece to the building where my exhibition was located in Manhattan, ensuring it arrived safely and in perfect condition. Sunflower Fine Art Galleries consistently demonstrates true craftsmanship and genuine care for their clients. I highly recommend them for any framing needs, large or small. Working with Sunflower Fine Art Galleries is a worthwhile investment, and I fully trust them to do right by me every single time. I highly recommend the Sunflower Fine Art in West Hempstead for all of your framing needs, or to purchase a beautiful work of art as a gift for someone you love or your home. Shulie

Kerry called and took some time getting to know what I wanted and details about the target. It couldn't have turned out better. The lyrics he made up for the song were spot on and hilarious. Everyone loved it and it's the 1st time I've seen my friend so flummoxed he couldn't even talk he was laughing so hard. Would totally recommend!!!

Rude communication. So glad I didn't book them. And now I never will.

Then we gave them the money. HOWEVER, he NEVER showed up. Even we have scheduled an appointment and my husband took half day off and waited for him, but he cancelled in the last minute. The staff is so rude and curtain looks so cheap but cost thousand of dollars! NEVER EVER choose this design company!

Some days it's the usual suspects with sneakers and sunglasses... and other days, it's little bursts of magic. We always stop by the sweetest lady who sells fresh fruit--her plums? Chef's kiss. Five bucks a bag and worth every cent. But what I really love are those Friday/Saturday vendors who come out of nowhere with tables of old, random treasures. No rhyme, no reason, just hidden gems priced like it's 1994. That's the thrill of it. It's not fancy, but that's the charm. People are out, chatting, soaking up the sun--it's just a really nice vibe. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area. You might leave with a bag of fruit, a vintage trinket, or just a smile.

Flea Market At the Crossing

I didn't hate it, didn't love it. It's one of those places that looks like a flea market on the…read moreoutside but feels more like a collection of boutique stalls once you're in. Each vendor has a cute little setup, which is nice for browsing, but the pricing? Definitely not flea market pricing. As a reseller, I'm always on the hunt for deals, and there just wasn't any room here. Most items were priced at full retail--or even higher in some cases--which kind of defeats the purpose. Yes, some of the stuff is old, used, and vintage-adjacent, but nothing rare enough to justify the markup. If you're just looking for a weekend wander or want a quirky spot to kill time, it's fine. But if you're a picker, collector, or someone who knows the value of what you're looking at... this probably isn't your gold mine. Personally, I won't be rushing back.

If you're the type of person who enjoys "treasure hunting" this will be a fun way to spend a few…read morehours. The building is HUGE, and literally jam-packed with individually owned sections (I want to say "booths" but that's not completely accurate)... each containing completely different kinds of items. If you're a collector, there's a good chance you'll find something to add to your collection. Be sure to peek at all the photos I added to get an idea of what can be found. Many of the "booth" owners hangs out near their offerings. It felt like a little community in there and most of the people were friendly. We saw 3 dogs, Two seemed happy and friendly, and one was in a carrier with a warning sign, who was miserable and scared and growling (can only assume he was in that too small container because he bites, out of fear). That poor caged dog was the only bad (horrible really) thing. Hopefully someone there will see this review and find a way to give that small puppy a more humane way to spend his day. It really was sad and disturbing. Overall I'd say that The Flea Market at the Crossing is worth checking out at least once, especially if you're looking for an interesting way to spend an hour or two. Bring someone 50+ with you and watch them remember happy times spent with their grandparents. From the glassware and kitchen tools to the kitchen table in my photos, I found myself remembering he things my grandparents chose for their houses. We didn't buy anything this time, perhaps we'll return one day.

Their chocolate chip cookies and peanut butter chocolate cookies are another yummy buy! We enjoyed our pie so much that we literally pre-ordered 4 additional pies to pick up on the same day. 3 to take home and 1 blue berry to enjoy! Enjoy!
