So down to earth, the staff is amazing. It's just a really cool place to not only enjoy mother nature in a beautiful park setting, but also feel her between your fingers in mudd at a pottery wheel. How much closer to Earth and primitive life can you get than throwing your own pots. Not only do they have wonderful classes to offer they do some really cool community events and kids activities. I can't wait for glass blowing to start up soon! Check them out you won't be disappointed.

I can't tell you enough that this is the perfect place. We've painted pottery before, so we chose glass fusion. We made bowls using broken glass.

Dosen't seem cheap especially with a few Grandkids however, eveything is provided...paints, brushes, water, nice tables for working, clean up, a helpful employee and of course a memorable experience. Takes 2 weeks for them to put it in the kiln and get your finished art piece. We have lots of timeless and awesome ceramics and clay pieces from the kids. Just love it...probably more than the kids...ha! We usually paint a ceramic but the last visit we tried the clay. The kids free form something out of clay. They paint that and put in the kiln as well. That too was a winner. I highly recommend.

This is one of my go-to stores to purchase scrap booking items, paint, and other things needed for our mommy/daughter craft nights. Other than just crafts, they usually have a deal on candles and they usually run 3 for $10 which is a pretty good deal! You can also purchase bubbles and toys for your kids and have isles and isles of picture frames, yarn for the knitters and crochet tools. I also like to come here and get things for baking, like chocolate melts for party favors, molds and fondant mixes. This store literally has everything you need for any type of craft and hobby you could think of. Another pretty cool thing about this store is the weekly coupons they have in the paper or online. The coupon is sometimes for 40% off one item, that's not on sale or clearance and could be useful when you need it! They have bathrooms for customers and when it comes to customer service, they are very helpful and usually very friendly.

We have houses in Scottsdale and San Diego, and every summer we come to NJ we go there and find something and they ship our items for us (a bit high shipping costs, but always packed well and nothing has every broken).

If you want something different for your home or a friend this is a great place to consider. They feature some well know artists so some items can be very pricey. Carla was very nice and is very knowledgeable and passionate about blown glass figurines. If you want to purchase unique blown glass pieces she's the one to see. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. They are COVID ready and you cannot get in the store without a mask and sanitizing your hands. I would recommend you stop in if you're in the area.

He's an old hippie who lived and worked as a teacher in California most of his life and then ended up moving to New Hope and buying a place for a song which he fixed up. He lives over the shop which helps keep his overhead down in a town where rent can be a killer and really drive up the price of the merchandise. Joel has a wild mix of old and new. He's got a full array of vintage mugs from different time periods, along with many awesome selections of hand made, one of a kind pottery mugs and bowls. He also has other interesting kitchen kitsch and a hodgepodge of artsy brickabrack and art. Very cool place. Recommended.
