He said the more we come, the better we'll get and I'm excited for it. It's an amazing craft. We felt the price was competitive but reasonable. They were so kind and patient with us. We felt like bulls in a china shop. But he talked with us all the way through it all. If you have the time, it's worth a try.

There aren't enough superlatives to describe Kinship Glassworks and the gentlemen who work there!…read moreI recently participated in a "Friday with Friends" event at Kinship. The event consisted of a tour of the facility and an explanation of the glass working process, followed by a meal with wine and beer provided by neighboring restaurant 3 Thirty Three. After the refreshments the group of about 30 participants was encouraged to select a glass object in on display and then create their own version of the object with the expert help of the Kinship Glassworkers. The glass objects were various styles of drinking glasses, paper weights, and even a glass flower. You choose the colors and then help the artisans to execute the design. The even takes about 3-4 hours depending on the number of participants. $130 covers the cost of the food, drinks, and the glass object.

I have no idea how this standby and important (supplies) store gets such a low rating? I just…read moreshopped there for the 100th time and everything on my hobby list was there. Reasonably priced and cheaper than ordering on Amazon by the way as that is no longer a bargain deal. The only constant and I will live with it is the sometimes long waits to get out. That is the price one pays for getting excellent prices which they have and a great selection. If this store rolls up and leaves that would be a real loss especially after losing first A.C.Moore than Joann's and being with just one large supplier for the hobby world. I do suspect that some competitors are making these low rating remarks. I never trust negative especially about stores and worse restaurants. I think they are staged.

I was disappointed that the Daniel Smith paint Buy one get one for 50% off had ended the day before because I had several colors that I wanted to try. They didn't have all the colors that I wanted in stock so I picked three that they did have and then signed up for text messages which gave me a 25% off my entire purchase. I am glad that they have a bricks and mortar presence here in Milford, CT because its a different kind of store that gives choices for crafters, knitters, scrapbook makers and others who, like me, want to see what you are getting rather than buying on line.

What do you need in paper and boxes - they got it! Well at least everything we needed. We stopped in to get boxed and shredded xmas paper for sending gifts ( early!) Simply put what make them special, besides the selection, is the welcoming and friendly folks. Everyone gets greeted, they checked in on what we needed. Last time we visited, we asked about small rolls of brown shipping paper to warp some for the boxes we had at home. What we saw was a HUGE roll. Other stores would have said, "no, sorry". This tore, "hold on, we will open this and cut/roll what you need". Awesome.
