Set in the former brick school building on Evergreen Blvd. at west end of Officer's Row (built by Mother Joseph in the 1800s). Across the street and over one from the new downtown Ft. Vancouver Regional Library. This place is fragrance-free, dog-free, quiet, and sociable. I appreciate this place. Prices are reasonable. Go elsewhere for bold colors or abstract art.

The quickest way to cheer my wife up is to take her to a quilt shop. That's what we did today, and…read moremy wife left very happy. The shop is located in the historic Providence Academy building, which is the perfect setting for quilts. We had a great chat with the owner who is super friendly and knowledgeable. The shop isn't huge but has a unique aesthetic feel, and a good variety within that. She offers quilting and crafting classes which my wife is planning to sign up for. We recommend checking it out.

Sheri-Ann was amazing. 35yrs in the business and she knows her glass. She was very friendly and clear and gave us great guidance. A few helpful tips and tricks that she passed on. Basic instruction and then just let us go to town. We used all types of colored frit, they have every color in the rainbow AND every possible texture & opacity. We made a few flowers and I even did a frog & lily pad. I simply cannot wait to see the final product. Should be a week or so. I highly recommend you check this place out. Great value for your money. Right in downtown Vancouver. We'll be back. Maybe to even try another class, stained glass?! Or maybe to better hone our frit-laying skills. So much fun. Thanks to Sheri-Ann & Carla for having such a great local destination for fun artistic creation!

They were very helpful with finding me the right hooks and yarn that I was looking for. My favorite purchase from here is the foldable scissors. I like stopping by here when I'm around and I like that they have event going on here. On Sundays, they provide a space where everyone who crochets and/or knits can come and hangout. Something that I appreciate is how they have different sized yarn, a variety of colors, and other things such as markers and scissors. My yarn that I got was originally around $21 but since they had a sale section the my yarn was in, it was cheaper! Will be back here soon!

This store is a bit dated and inside there seems to be no organization! The irony always cracks me…read moreup that a store that sells items to inspire creativity would not be creative in how they display and style the store! For example, there was a huge Christmas display as you enter straight in front of you. Then trees and garland and accessories on several aisles on the right side of the store. But wait, on the left side is more! It's all over the place. Today I needed to return a picture frame and pick up some melting chocolate to make pink and blue molds for a gender reveal party. I found that aisle pretty easily but as I searched for some last minute holiday decorations I was all over the place! Maybe that's their intention. Located in Janzen Beach Shopping Center, there is plenty of parking out front. Easy access on and off I-5.

They have everything set up for you and they have aprons available but I definitely encourage you to bring clothes you don't mind getting dirty. The instructor was great - she goes over a step by step demo and then with the whole class the instructor goes over the steps again and you end up with a piece of your choice. I ended up having time to make 3 pieces in total. Highly recommend - very fun and a nice challenge!

My work recently gave us a budget to indulge in a hobby in, and knowing my brother had a birthday coming up, immediately said "BEDAZZLER" Who knew that bedazzlers do not affix to thermoses on their own? Who knew that you need 'Rhinestone Glue' to get them to affix? That said, off I went to Michael's where after some searching to find it (it's tucked past where the Toys r Us used be in Jantzen Beach) I was richly rewarded. The people there are incredibly nice, the selection is HUGE, and the person I spoked to in the glue section taught me more about glue than I ever knew was possible. As a bonus, I also picked up a new exercise stick while I was the for like 5 bucks! (4 ft dowel 3/4 inch). Will definitely shop here again and props to all the nice people at this Michael's, thanks again!

With this store a bit more tucked in, it seemed more clean and organized than other locations but…read moreapparently they suffer a great deal of theft. I would have not known - as I am not a thief, I am not thinking of that. I decided my bladder would not handle the shopping so I grabbed a basket so I could start shopping after since i needed glue which was right there at the back wall. Restroom clearly marked so off I went. Big signs with the 'restroom for customer only' and to find an associate to let you in... and the walk made the urgency a bit more but thankfully I could hear someone working in the framing area right there so I did the hello and can I trouble you for the code. Urgency growing as she fumbled the code over and over. Places apparently don't give the secret code out now and have to supervise you using the bathroom since, apparently, people memorize the code and give it out. THIS is where we are folks. Thankfully shopping was much easier than it was to use to restroom and I managed not to have an adult accident. The cashier was friendly and they had the super goopy glue I needed to get - they have a GLUE AISLE... so if you need to stick a thing to another thing, they got you. I managed to sneak past the Halloween stuff and BELIEVE ME, that's rough...I want it all! Then I went to the parking lot and was like WHOA What in the Actual F... because, you know that blinking blue like solar panel things you see in every parking lot now? IT SPOKE TO ME.... BELOWING at me ...VERY LOUD in an empty parking lot something about being a Micheal's customer and that they WERE FILMING ME... Ummm... WHAT??? I got in my car, after taking a picture - you got me and I got you creeper!! That was just waaaaaaay Xtra... It was 930am on a freaking Tuesday and I was the only customer - oh wait, I saw a husband and wife getting a game for their toddler.... I felt like maybe I missed the prison riot. So, I appreciate stores protecting themselves but the message I got is that I am lucky I missed getting stabbed by the unhinged people who also shoplift there while buying glue. Maybe order glue online next time.

Aurora Gallery has framed several pieces for me over the years. They have a large (in some ways…read moreoverwhelmingly large) selection of frames in a variety of good-quality materials. They also have a nice selection of matte choices, should your work require it, and different types of glass, from common window glass to anti-UV, anti-reflective glass for maximum preservation and visibility. The staff are consistently friendly, helpful, and professional. They even throw in free picture hooks so you needn't rummage around or make a trip to the hardware store when you get your artwork home, which is a nice touch. Prices are not cheap, but then even cheap, junky frames are expensive and difficult to find nowadays, and the workmanship by Aurora is very good, and justifies the cost. They have also proven adept at framing some oddball pieces for me that are not normally considered "art," so don't be afraid to challenge them!

What's great is that Class Cooking is not only next door to Burnt Bridge Cellars but the same couple who owns Class Cooking also co-owns the winery. They utilize both spaces, at least for our private event. And the wine is delicious!
