We tweaked one and restrung another and Lori was so helpful in suggesting how to fix them and how to care for them. While she was finishing one I kept finding one beautiful thing after another while searching my brain for who I could give them to! Almost everything is from local artists, including Lori, who makes gorgeous beaded jewelry. One item will make you laugh out loud and the next thing you notice might bring tears...that painting will soon be hanging on my wall. Enjoy!

I'm not that excited about Papers & Presents. They do have a large selection of stationary and…read morespecial order products but I was hoping for more choices in the pre-printed card department. The "Thank You" cards were all summer themed with bright pastels and warm colors. I couldn't find much that represented winter or Holidays. I did find an adorable Kate Spade "Thank You" card that was $28.00 for four cards and envelopes. Eep! I wish the girl tending the shop was a bit friendlier because I might have stayed and worked harder to find exactly what I wanted. Instead we packed up and moved across the street to Wellesley Booksmith where I found a huge selection and much better prices.

We were not sure if we could bring these items to this store or not, since we purchased from another location. Luckily, our return was successful & the lady who helped us was very kind. It was our first time visiting this location & it's a lot smaller than the usual one we go to. Love all the containers they offer! Great for organizing the house... from desk goods to kitchen storage & closet space. A little pricey but there are some gems!

The staff are super nice, helpful and they get my sense of humor! The other day I made a booboo while checking out and they were calm and pleasant when they had to re-ring up my whole stack of quarter yards - no eye rolling, just a deep breath and a wide smile. I was "having a day" and they couldn't have been more helpful. My latest find is their skeins of Queensland cotton worsted - the colors make my potholders sing and it has a great hand feel. I sing FPB's praises.

Very good selection of quilting cottons although not the cutest stuff and some limitations on…read morecolors. For example, there may be a really cute pattern in blue and green but you won't find the same pattern in any other colors. I find I can't source the majority of a quilt here. I do like that I can see solid colors in person, this is really helpful. Price per yard on all quilting fabrics is excellent. Ability to find novelty fabrics is good. Overall I find I don't do as well here as I used to do when they were in Framingham. Quilting tool selection is also limited.

The store is "missing" something, but the knicknacks and finds are cool details for the young and newlywed. I can't put my finger on it... but it's missing something. Let's give them some time, they are new to our very friendly and bubbly community. "Effervescence" was missing in this clean, open and airy shop.

I have bought a lot of cute gifts and clothing there, but will just drive to Worcester to Crompton Collective in the future. I don't know how they are training staff so differently, but it is notable. Their hours keep getting worse too. VisIted today, Small Business Saturday, and they were closed until noon while every other business is open. I don't know, I just don't get it. Feels like a side business that is an after thought for whoever is running it.

If this was my store I would be deeply unhappy to have such a discourteous staff person. At least have the kindness to walk over and explain to your customer why they can't pick up the things they already bought.
