They recently started locking up the Copics, so you now have to ask an employee to get any markers/refills. The employees are very nice and helpful though!

Sam Flax is way more than an art supply store and framing shop. They have all kinds of gift items,…read morebooks, premium name brand ink and fountain pens, home decorations and more. I had not been to Sam's since they moved across the street a few years ago. As a customer I went for some colored pencils and the staff was extremely helpful in finding items for a gift. I was walked by a staff member to several areas of the store and items to choose from were placed in my hands while the staff member explained the features and made recommendations. The level of customer service and help is something you don't commonly see in retail stores these days. The store has a tranquil vibe which makes it fun to browse the many gift items. Their stock is unique in that they carry a breadth of items that are high quality at a range of prices. You can spend a lot of time here finding inspiration and treasures. They offer art classes and during the Christmas season they offered free make and take craft classes. They had a small cardboard 'house or cottage' setup inside the store with tables stocked with all the supplies you needed for that weeks's free project. This was not just for kids. My friend and I had fun making gift tags the day we were visiting the store. The store is beautiful inside and out. The beautiful murals that cover the outside walls echo the beauty and fun you will find inside the store. Since they are popular the parking lot can get pretty full.

There's a collage bar that one friend used for scrapbooking. They purchased some kits including a Crosstitch kit, embroidery kit, and hand sewing kit. Painting kits were also available. All extra supplies that you might need are provided. One criticism is it was on the pricey side but worth it for the activity, and nothing unreasonable. The person who I believe was the owner was VERY helpful in all aspects! In terms of snacks, they have hot tea available or some canned drinks and chips for purchase. It was a lot of fun and music to set a great vibe.

Bottom of the bin is such a cute little chaotic store! I heard about this local indie shop and had…read morea spare moment close to closing time just to check it out. It's sort of like the goodwill and used book store equivalent of crafting supplies... and at really dirt cheap prices. You can't come in with any expectation of what you're going to find. Overall they carry supplies for most crafting hobbies - yarn, fabric, stamps, paper, misc gadgets, cross stitch kits... I grabbed a chunk of denim fabric for $3 that I haven't even unrolled to look at (it's just handy to always have extra for mockups), and I was super tempted with what appeared to be salvage sari trim, but many things are folded and put into plastic bags or on some sort of cardstock and it's very difficult to gauge yardage of anything. Everything is very clearly marked with a dirt cheap price tag (and some things at the front door having an additional buy one get one half off type promo). The cashier was super nice and didn't rush out even though I finally walked out a couple minutes after closing. I have no idea what their trade in system is like but I would definitely consider dumping some of my excess materials here the next time I whittle my hoard down!

Back then or even twenty years ago it was no surprise to find an actual scrapbook store throughout many cities. Sadly, now, it is almost impossible to find brick and mortar store. I believe when I moved down to Florida 18 years ago there were 3 stores that I frequented often and now, only Scraporium is left. When I am in the Carrollwood or Lutz area , I always stop in if it's during business hours to see what they have added to the store or if there is anything that I must have. The ladies that work, there are always so nice and polite and willing to help find anything that you may be looking for that.They have as the store is very packful of various goodies. I truly hope they are successful enough to remain open for years to come.

Some things were a good price and some things were higher than average. But the fact that it's a small and local place made me comfortable paying a premium. There was a woman when we walked in that acknowledged us but we weren't sure if she was a manager or just a customer. When we went to pay, we were second in line and the lady at the cash register (I assume owner) disappeared without saying a word after she helped the people in front of us. Not sure what happened but we waited several minutes before we could check out. No other customers were in the store at the time. I'll be back, though :)

Softer. People who work there are generally very nice, which makes the whole experience feel pleasant. I have not actually purchased that many things there. A few plastic art organizers that I use for my makeup. Some Christmas ornaments. And one hanging wall art piece. That is about it. But I still enjoy going in. I am an artsy, craftsy type person.

For the opened paint, ink, and markers they have a testing area so you don't have to worry about it being dried out if already opened (which most was).

The inside is beautifully decorated and any craft you make is like Pier 1/Home Goods level nice. So the added bonus of having a great time is that you leave with a gorgeous piece to show off. Make sure you get a punch card on your way out for their loyalty program so you can eventually get a free workshop.

The staff were attentive and friendly, walking around to each table to check on each person and guide them along the process. The work areas were large and it was nice sound with others to guide and help each other also. There really wasn't an overall explanation on how to do the monogram on the box so we struggled with this until a staff member came by and guided us on the process but by then all but 1 monogram was on a box. Wish there would have been just a bit more overall instructions on this is how we put on and take off the monogram. Overall the experience was lovely and I think everyone really enjoyed it. Great place to have a party or come take part in a workshop.
