As many may know art can be a expensive hobby specially when its done almost daily! My classmate told me about this art shop and 2 weeks ago I went there to give it a try and I am not disappointed.The shop owner was working that day and he told me about tips and tricks I could use to get most of my supplies and even gave me some good deals. I have tried his suggestions and I am going back for more advise and more quality but nice price art supplies! Their website is not as impressive though, it dose not represent the shop I visited. I strongly recommend people in the near area to go and stock up on valuable tips and supplies from this store.

The shop is open three days a week and is organized neatly after color of the things there! It is a typical thrift store with a lot of books, furniture, glassware, some clothes and what not! It is tidy apart from the clothes section, which has not much to offer. During Christmas, they have Christmas markets and they really do know how to organize and make a difference in their local community. The prices are GOOD and the staff is so cute, all of them. I do not always find anything here, but since it is so well organized, I have fun browsing too. What makes this place a bit different is the way it is run. It has focus on the environment and offers a wide range of services in addiction to the thrift store (redesign among other things). Also, disabled people get to work here and thus Miljøhuset provides an important function and support for a great many people. I go here once in a while, and will continue doing that!
