Sprawling local art store in Crossroads with a large selection of art supplies! I am focusing on…read moreshopping small this year, and this store has just about anything you need for your art projects in their surprisingly-large space. It's the kind of place that makes me wish I was a real artist! Markers, paint, pens, paper, canvas, stamps, crafts, and more! They also have a good selection of little gifts and trinkets, which makes this a great place to shop for small birthday presents for your artsy friend. The staff are super helpful and welcoming and kind. Sure, everything is a little more expensive here than at a big box store, but they have high quality product, and you're supporting local art!!

This place is awesome!!! This is downtown Kansas City! It's situated north of the Plaza, and in a…read morenice busy area of town. Currently, the City is extending the Streetcar line, so there is a lot of construction barriers and road plates to overcome. The cute store has a nice private parking lot with 2 entry points. The employees are super friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the products. I was inquiring about leather paints for shoes. The clerk was provided awesome service making sure I understood the paint and all the needs to clean it up. I didn't feel pressured to purchase anything. They offered individual paints or sets for this particular type of paint. They had a selection of "specialty" colors that are made in small batches and a little more exclusive than the regular. Their open stock pens are glorious!!! Whether you are looking for an inexpensive Flair pen or Sharpie, or a more spendy Copic, you can choose from many different brands, and price points. They have canvases, and lots of blank bags, pouches, tshirts and other items that you can alter to share your art! They have numerous types of clay, molding clay, pottery clay, fine art medium and even novice kits. Prices: I shop a lot at other hobby and craft stores, so I would know if the Dick Blick prices are out of range. They aren't, in fact the prices were great! Stop by Starbucks and get a drink, and wander across the street and browse! i think you will love their selection and the wonderful atmosphere that appeals to your creative side!

The prices are affordable and I was able to grab a few things at a good price. I was expecting more variety in supplies. But it's all donation based so why would all the good stuff be donated lol.

Mass Street is full of shops & boutiques in which to stop and part with some of your hard-earned…read moremoney, and Wonder Fair is no different. Well, actually it is, because it's full of cool stuff. Think gift shop + art shop + boutique curio, and maybe that *starts* to describe the space. There are plenty of keepsakes, art supplies, and gift ideas that will run your tab up very quickly. It's all good stuff, mind you, but it's almost like they should have an "I'll take one of everything package". The front of the store is mostly boutique-ish and has a small up and downstairs. You can find gifts for just about anyone, and this is the kind of place where you can stuff stockings or get something unique for that special someone. If you need ideas, then ask one of the staff who are always willing to help. If you need specifics in the art department, then there is a station in the back to help you with various items such as paper types or other supplies. The unique nature of some of the items leads to perhaps some higher prices, but the value is spot on. You're finding gifts, not clipping coupons, so enjoy and shop a little. For everything that you think might be marked a little high, just remind yourself that you probably aren't going to find that in very many other places. And that's the fun of shopping: just browsing when you have the time and maybe the resources, looking at things that you didn't know you were going to find, and in this case, helping a great small business thrive.

Cozy atmosphere, chill aesthetic, and such an interesting concept. The milkshakes were absurd (in a good way)! My issue with the place is the insistence upon gratuity for a staff that wasn't very helpful. I never mind tipping workers who add value, but after we paid for our projects, we had almost no interaction with the staff. These projects aren't cheap and would be fairly easy to mess up for folks who aren't crafty. A bit more guidance would go a long way. A great concept like this demands well-trained, considerate, and accommodating staff.

They have a wide variety of teaching supplies, learning games, and much more. They have a cute little area near the cash register for kids to play while parents shop. I felt like their schooling supplies were generally reasonable, but I think that some of their learning games are quite high priced. They do have sales like buy one get one 50% off and other sales as well as rewards program that I joined. I will definitely be going back as it's nearby and they have a pretty good selection.

There are no step by step verbal instructions throughout the video, no speaking in the videos at all. If I'd understood this before purchasing I would not have purchased this product. I emailed to let them know I'd only watched one video and these were not what I expected and they responded that they're unable to offer any sort of a refund and offered no other remedy other than telling me to keep trying I might find I enjoy it. I don't enjoy it, now that I know what it is. I tried one, I know I don't enjoy it, not at all, I hated it. I don't want to try it again, I'd like a refund. You should make money off customers that do enjoy it not off those that you mislead. I had no idea a "process video" was DIFFERENT THAN ALL THE OTHER VIDEOS I've watched from Let's Make Art over the past number of years. $100 wasted. Super disappointed with this product and even more disappointed with their customer service response. So many other ways to deal with a situation like this and keep your customer happy. Be absolutely certain you understand what you're getting and it's what you want before you order from this company or just go find some other company to support as from my perspective this company is unfortunately no longer one worth supporting.
