I'm talking floor to ceiling art supplies, for everything you could possibly imagine. It's a different world once you step through those doors. I promise. They also have a free membership program which gives discounts, so signing up is definitely recommended. The employees are very friendly, and will ask multiple times if you need help. The sweet woman who rang me up was kind enough to offer a few tips (thank goodness), since I had no clue about my chosen items. Really. I thought I did, but I didn't. At all. If you take a little time to observe the crowd, they're clearly seasoned artists who know their way around the store. There might be one or two who will glare pompously as the nice cashier offers a few tips, but all you have to do is glare back. Amateurs, you have every right to be here too. Don't let them scare you :P It was a pleasant experience overall, and I can't wait to come back and explore the aisles a bit further :) Just remember to park alongside the street or in the garage on Silver Spring Avenue (by Kaldi's Social House).

Great store, nice people. Can't ask for more.

Shopping nearby I decided to stop in here and see if maybe I could find some frames and make those dreams of mine come true. Short story here, I didn't. They were having a sale on frames, but it appeared that everyone else had the same idea as I did, or maybe they all needed the same size as I did. Each area I would go to the size I needed was gone. With Michaels being one of the few stores where everything they have is on the shelves, I was out of luck here. I have to say, I was amazed, however, with the way they were able to cram a whole store into this space. It is not your conventional setup for a Michaels and they somehow managed to get the whole store in here.

She was just so wonderful and kind to us even helping us while handling & answering the front desk phone. Things like this really mean a lot to us. Definately recommend & will be going back!

We got great recommendations and real assistance to get what would be greatly appreciated. We picked out fancier stuff thinking it was better, but once we got to discuss what we wanted they helped get us the right stuff and it was at a substantial decrease in cost. This place wasn't about getting every dime out of our pocket and instead getting us what we needed (or in our case, our Brother) and they loved the items. How nice to spend less and ultimately get more. This felt very much like asking a friend for help and getting the assistance without any pressure, thanks so much for everything!

On this most recent trip to the MD Burbs for a Yelp event, I was delighted to find Three Little Birds just a few miles from my hotel. So I stopped in during my lunch break on a mission to find just the right fabric for a wedding quilt I'm sewing for a dear family member. This shop is really, really cute! They carry mostly modern fabrics, plus a ton of knitting/crocheting supplies. In the back is a classroom area, and they have lots of project samples, notions, and one of the best selection of sewing books I've seen. The best news is: I found the perfect fabric for the wedding quilt! And I had just enough space in my suitcase to get it home and start cutting. Highly recommend this little shop if you're in the area and on a hunt for some new fabric!

Two other employees were on a break.

HOT TIP: Make a reservation online on their website, so you have a spot and are able to plan ahead…read more They do book up fast. I was going to be in the area visiting a friend. We were doing a little theme visit, arts and crafts. Earlier we made candles and then we headed to our afternoon reservation to make paint pottery at All Fired Up. Once we arrived we were instructed to pick out our piece we desired. We were seated at the front window, just the two if us. It was nice to sit with each other without others around. I chose two pieces, a topper for $13 and a strawberry container for I think $27. I felt the pricing was extremely reasonable especially since you used their glaze, they fire it, and they set up and clean up for you. They also offer a military discount, which handled around the cost of the tax. The staff were great. They were always making sure we were ok, without being to over the top. They kept things moving. . They do offer "private" parties and birthday parties. The set up was pretty nice, and quaint. There was a large table set in the back. While I was there there was two parties. Each party brought a cake and snacks. There are aprons available and an abundant selection of supplies available. It looks like they also do arts with glass. Parking can be tricky. So I suggest to leave time to navigate that, so you are not late for your appointment. We found street parking a few streets over. But, there was slot a lot where you paid.

We were instructed to pick out any item we wanted, and they even had simpler options for those of us who aren't as artistic. Once we made our selections, we were able to grab our colors and brushes and start painting. The two-hour time limit was very reasonable, and the staff did a great job checking in and reminding us of our time. After finishing, we wrote our names on the bottom, and the staff took care of the rest. They glaze your finished piece, and you can return in about a week to pick it up. The space is small and simple, but it's a great choice for anyone looking for a fun activity or planning a group event. I also found the prices to be very reasonable.

My dad brought it to me the weekend before Thanksgiving and we were on a mission to find a local jeweler to trust with resizing it. Rahul and Isabelle were patient and more than understanding when my dad wanted to do more research before leaving our special ring behind. Upon reading his other yelp reviews, and their professionalism when dealing with us the first time, we decided Atlantic Gems was the jeweler to trust. Even with the Thanksgiving holiday, I received the ring back in just a little over a week, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I will definitely be back for all jewelry repair, resetting and resizing needs for years to come. Not only do I give them 5 stars, but so does my dad (a tough customer in Michigan)!
