I hung many beautiful pieces in here; one appears in photo 8 on Yelp (on the wall behind the mug). I have never received any income, not a single dollar, from the 10 works I have displayed in here. I have reached out several times to come and get my art, they have never once responded. These are terrible business owners, and terrible human beings who make their living off of stealing from artists.

Used this road trip stop to pick up gifts and a couple of goodies for myself. Several potters are represented. There appeared to be something for everyone. Fair prices. Good tunes on the speakers. Friendly, non-pushy staff. Curmudgeon artist at the door. Beautiful weather. Lots of foot traffic on the street. Scenery sure didn't suck and the Arkansas River just waiting to be explored. Perfect.

On a vacation to Salida, a friend who lives there suggested we visit a green cat. She said, "Salida…read moreis an artsy town and the very best gallery there is this one." Well, walking in, I felt like a kid in a candy store. I wanted to buy everything -- the stunning diachroic glass, the creative oil paintings, even the handcrafted jewelry! I ended up staying there for over an hour trying to make up my mind, and ended up with two stunning pieces (and a big smile on my face). While there, I met the artist/owner, Steph Brady, and just loved her. She was authentic, helpful, and just the nicest person around. Now back in Chicago, I get compliments on my art all the time. I wish a green cat was located here-- scratch that, I'd probably go broke!

The entire ordering process was a cinch; they're already on it! I understand that all their easels are handmade in Colorado. And from what I gathered, they have 24-hr customer service with a real human being (no bots or AI here, baby!). The fellow I talked to--Nick--seemed like a real nice, helpful guy with a great sense of humor. I got a good feeling about this. Good to know there are still some American companies who care about true craftsmanship and artistic beauty. Nice work, people!

I've popped into quite a few bead stores, may they be a big box or independent. This store was…read morefantastic. Not just for the selection but for the proprietor who was friendly and engaging.

Just want to give a shout-out to this wonderful store and Sharon who works there. I've stopped in a…read morecouple of times on Colorado road trips and there are some real treasures that make the store a great place to browse. On my most recent visit, I bought a painting and needed it shipped to Seattle. Sharon took down my info and said she'd make the arrangements with a local shipping company. When she investigated, she felt the price was too high so she created your own packaging and took my purchase to a spot in Denver (the next time she headed there), arranging for it to be shipped at one-third the original quote. So above and beyond! What's more, when I called to make the final payment arrangements, I immediately recognized Sharon's friendly voice from when I was in the store. It's because of Sharon that my partner commented, then and now, "I love Coloradans!" Yes, she's excellent PR for the entire state. Worth a visit. It's going to be a regular stop for me whenever I'm passing through.
