Christmas time
Traci D.

This place is a crafters dream I think, but for someone who wants to minimize, it is a bit overwhelming. The isles are tight and packed full. When we went to shop, it was probably at its annual pick of capacity (right before Christmas). We went in to find some watercolor paper and decided to purchase some watercolors as well. I was surprised to see them locked up. We then had to hunt down a staff member to unlock. Apparently theft is just seriously bad around here. Staff was friendly enough, I was glad for the open use of the restroom (during times of Covid), although I was kind of grossed out by the appearance and cleanliness. Final Vote: I might look online before returning

If you're looking for custom frames, ask for Stephanie…read more Yeah, we went the pseudo-cheap route, in that we didn't buy original art work. We wanted to deck out our newish home with some faces of our favorite artists and thinkers, so we went wandering through the interwebs jungle and found fineartamerica.com, which had some pretty dope, affordable prints (Neko Case, Dalai Lama, Prince... yesssss). I figured I'd really score by picking up some cheap-o frames at Michael's and quickly realized that our prints came in unconventional sizes. That's when I asked the woman behind the counter, Stephanie, for some help. She was terrific. I knew, immediately, that I could trust her to creatively customize colors and nail the right frames, and she spent a good 45-50 minutes with me, individually working through each print, finding deals and discounts when possible, and honoring the artists who created the work. In the end I dropped a lot of cash on the job, but quite honestly, it was worth every friggin' penny. Our walls are gorgeous, and every morning, at breakfast, I give a wink to the Artist Formerly Known As...

I don't mind a little wait for service - but the bottom line is customer service & rudeness isn't…read morepart of it. Needed a custom frame so to the framing dept we go. No one around so hit the help button. After nearly 10 mins I go behind the counter to the frame display for a closer look. About 5 mins later an employee comes up and starts the exchange with get out from behind the counter. Ok - trying to look at frames. Response You don't belong behind the counter. Sure & out the door we go. Otherwise the store is large & well stocked with all kinds of craft supplies. Lost on me - there isn't an artistic bone in my body. There's a stuff for arts & crafts - painters, beaders, jewelry makers, knitters & model builders. I'm sure you get the idea. For us tho there are other stores in town to buy from

We took two grand kids (ages 5 and 7) to Creativity Warehouse for a pottery class that was…read moreadvertised in the January Cibola Neighborhood alerts. The pottery class was $40 per child. There were only 3 children signed up for the "Kids Clay workshop", so there was plenty of opportunity for the teacher to provide one-on-one attention to them. There was not much direction or instruction from the teacher on how to prepare the clay or proper painting technique to use on clay. She did demonstrate how to attach items to clay by scraping. For this age, we felt there should have been more instruction on designing of the objects and directions on how to paint the clay, so when fired, the color would be more vibrant. The color of the completed pieces was very washed out, almost if they had been just painted with water color. The teacher said the project would be ready in 7 to 10 days and that we would receive a text when the pieces were ready to pick up. It took 21 days and we were never notified for pick-up. We had to personally check 3 times to see if project had been completed and was ready to pick up. Very disappointed in the service after paying over $80 for the class.

Every budding artist should come here for inspiration. This is not just a typical clay, throw on…read moreyour own wheel, sort of deal. Classes vary and can include crochet, painting, etc. I took my little girls and they just happened to have paint with a Princess where there was Anna and Elsa and they spent so much time engaging with the kids. They have lots of kids classes for all ages like make your own monster. Great staff and if you love to support local this is a great place!
