I have driven by this place time after time, finally making a stop because a schoolteacher friend…read moreof mine recommended it. This store is intimidating when you walk in, with tall industrial shelving and narrow aisles, but has so much magic in stock! I came in for this pad of special paper they carry, and ended up walking out with a dozen different items! They have a bit of everything there. It has the art supplies any student would need/want, lots of craft project supplies and ideas. They also had ink bottles from many great companies - I got a phosphorescent ink just for the fun of it. They carry all shapes and sizes of baggu bags and hilarious pencil cases.

How it took me several years to find this art supply store I will never know. I live nearby and now…read moreI frequent this magical little shop. It's small but well organized. They have nearly everything. Craft supplies, art supplies, large selection of various glue, pottery tools, etc. It's local. It's funky. It's cool. I have enjoyed my interactions with the staff and have found them to be helpful. I'm thrilled we have this store here in SE!

I mean, you can't even get through the door without being in amazement.

I just went there again this morning looking for Sea Monkey (Krill) aquariums for the kids and they had three different types! I couldn't find them anywhere else in town except BiMart, which only had 1 type. The price was essentially the same as BiMart, with a much better selection. Given the choice to spend my money at a small locally owned business, I'll choose the small business every time.

Gentleman at the register gave a bit of a gruff hello, but fine.. walked around the RC cars a bit, no one asked if I needed help.. wandered over to the trains where two employees were chatting and looked at the stuff in the cases..still no offer of help.. customer service seems seriously lacking..

I got there and the repair guy looked at it - didn't give me an estimate or any idea how much it would cost or even if he could fix it - HE SAID, I'm backed up 3 months we will call you when we can see you - he wrote my name in a book - and then he said if we don't call in a few months give us a call- WTF they clearly don't care that much.
