They are always friendly and willing to help. They definitely have the most variety of fabrics I've seen in the area. While some can be pricey I promise they're worth it! They also have plenty of rotating quilt bundles if you need inspiration! Bonus that they also have good technicians if you need to get your machine serviced. I will say my only complaint is I wish there were more fabric types. They obviously specialize in quality cotton/linen fabrics but I would love to see more types!

The staff is always friendly and helpul. I like the member discounts too. I'd go with five stars for Plaza but for two li'l reasons I'll stick with 4: - they don't stock Staedler graphite pencils, and I just can't do General graphites. - some of the colors of Holbein gouache paint have been out of stock for a while. In all fairness, this might be because these Holbeins aren't currently available from Plaza's distributor. But I keep coming back!

For professional artists, this store has everything you could ever want but I found the store just as enchanting as a casual browser. I especially loved all the unique craft kits that allow children to make everything from mini food to erasers to galaxies. As a stationary lover, I was impressed with their Japanese notebook and pen selection, as well as cute kawaii accessories like a leather cat pencil case which is now my daughter's most treasured possession. The store was clean and the workers were friendly. I'll definitely be back the next time I am in the area!

Extremely disappointed. I went to Hobby Lobby to drop off two large photo prints for framing. After…read morea long drive that probably took at least $6.00 worth of gas, the framer in the frame shop was on break and, according to two other employees, refused to interrupt break to help a customer.

The staff this Sunday morning was attentive and asked me multiple times if I needed help with anything and eventually I did! Lakeshore is a brand RETAIL store. You're going to need to know where you can splurge , what to add on your classroom wishlist and have a game plan. If you don't, you'll definitely spend more than you'd like! The game plan today was to bring the hubster with me today. That allowed me to stick yo my shopping list and be out in 20 mins... but not before I did my preliminary scouting mission for my next SOLO visit!

Small but mighty art store - great selection of materials for drawing, sketching, and painting…read moreincluding a wide variety of paints, paper, brushes, and pens. They even have paint for leather, which can be used for shoes, purses and jackets. Lots of materials for framing as well, including canvas that you can use to stretch to a customized size for your creation. Small number of supplies for fabric arts - just the basics to get started or if you're in a pinch. Prices are reasonable for the city and quality of the materials. Lots of cute gifty items up front too. Stop in here with your kids for a fun side trip when visiting Planet Word!

This store has the perfect location next to Hana Market on 17th St, a little slice of Japan in the District. I walked by and immediately felt welcomed by the proprietors as I explored the small shop. They have a varied collection of beautiful handcrafted ceramics (plates, bowls, cups, chopstick holders) as well as some lovely kimonos and textiles. Having recently spent a long layover in the Narita airport I am impressed by the reasonable prices at this shop. Everything is sourced directly from Japan and the owners are planning to have a rotating collection as well as hold workshops.
