True, it didn't say "watertight" on the package, but a huge amount of the food inside leaked out...it did not do what it was supposed to do, but the store clerk decided this was an exception to their returns policy.

I had 2 foamcore posters that needed custom framing for Christmas - I knew my husband wanted to have them for his mom for Christmas - and I left it until Dec 20 to try to figure out (I won't tell you how many months I had to deal with this). The first place I went to quoted me $500/ piece!! I almost died. So here I was driving around Toronto on Dec 21st to find a framing place who'd be able to get this job done in the 11th hour. I walked into Frames and Pictures and was immediately greeted by Lillian, who gave me a very reasonable quote - literally 75% less than the place I had gone to yesterday. Then she asked me when I needed it - and I said TODAY if possible (the shop is quite a distance from my home in Markham). She didn't even blink, smile still on her face and said "let me check". Long story short. I got both pieces framed 5 hours after dropping them off! I'm so pleased!

I was really impressed with The Arts Market. I was asking how this place worked, and it is not a…read morecommission store. It's a place where different people rent out sections or shelves of the stores to sell their items. They, then, get all of the profit from those sales. I purchased a number of 3D printed items, which were adorable, and multi-coloured, beyond what I would have been able to print out on my own. For five dollars each, they were a steal. There are a also a number of different jewelry sections, as well as some retro toys and comic books. Everything about this place and how it works was very charming to me. I'll have to go back in the future to see how the different booths / shops rotate.

This store is on the north side of Danforth Avenue, a few steps away from Glebemount Avenue. I used to visit this area often when Queenie's Cards had a physical store. It was nice being back in this neighbourhood. Parking on a side street is your cheapest, free option. I parked across the street on Aldridge Aveune. It was cool seeing a lot of houses with Halloween decorations. I crossed the street at the lights. There is a ramp to get in and out of this store. I was welcomed by Rosie, who used to work at Queenie's Cards. It was nice seeing a familiar face. She let me know that there's merchandise downstairs, as well as the main floor that we were on. It's a long flight of stairs to get to and from the floors. You're out of luck if you're looking for an elevator, as stores in this neighbourhood have been around for many decades. You basically have beautiful items made by artisans for sale in this venue. Rosie had doodles that come to life in the form of pins, hats, and stickers, for instance. I saw everything from handmade soy candles, to an old 101 Dalmatians touchtone phone. In the basement, I saw an Aladdin thermos that I had as a teenager. It was wild reliving my hot foods past! I loved browsing around this store. I ultimately picked up an eight-pack of Squishmallows plush ornaments, a glass bubble for my air plants, and a cute frog sticker from Rosie's collection. I don't know who crafted the glass bubble, but it's gorgeous. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and all was great. I didn't bother getting a paper bag. I ended up carrying everything to my car that was steps away. It was nice being in this venue. I look forward to returning and doing more shopping damage. Rosie is a talented artist. She was wearing a SkyDome sweater. I was so envious of her awesome find. If you are looking for a gift, this place is for you. You can also get a ton of gift cards. Everything in this store was up my alley. (414)
