They've got everything you need - beads, findings, design tutorials, etc. It's a surprisingly large store. And again, there's so many beads! We spent quite awhile looking at all of the different beads and making our selections. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The sale/clearance area had some great deals. And the prices overall weren't bad at all for the quality. If you're searching for some high-quality beads for making jewelry, this needs to be on your list as a place to shop.

Jamie is a great teacher who provides instruction and non-judgmental teaching and support to her students. The studio is a fun and supportive place to be creative. Jamie offers a variety of classes - I have tried silk painting, glass fusing, acrylic painting, charcoal & soft pastel, and oil painting - and workshops. The studio is also an art gallery where you can view and buy Jamie's and other artist's work, and buy art supplies. Classes are reasonably priced and for most classes all supplies are provided. Woodinville is lucky to have this wonderful creative space.

Christiana was absolutely wonderful. I booked this as a surprise for my husband's birthday, because…read morehe was gifted a nice camera recently. I knew that he would be excited about learning, but I didn't know that I would thoroughly enjoy it too! She has a way of really breaking down the concepts to make it approachable and easy for everyone to understand. Her house and backyard make for the perfect setting to get some hands-on practice. We found ourselves taking the camera out the very next day to work on what we learned, and that inspiration is the mark of a great teacher! I had no idea that photography can capture details that the human eye can't see on its own. Thank you for being such a fabulous, warm, and inspiring host and guide!
