I live just outside Raleigh, NC and only discovered this place about a year ago when I got back…read moreinto making art. Almost immediately it became my go-to shop for art supplies - and framing supplies as well. I do a bit of framing on the side for myself, family, and friends, and they carry a great selection of mat boards and backer/mounting boards, including archival products. I can't really speak to their in-store frame selection since I've only needed mat board and mounting supplies since I started shopping here. Their art supply selection is huge, and they carry just about anything you could need. The customer service has always been excellent - everyone I've interacted with has been friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. And if someone wasn't personally familiar with what I needed help with, they were always quick to find another associate who was. Their prices are also very fair, especially considering the excellent selection and customer service you get in return. I would absolutely recommend this Jerry's to anyone. If you've never shopped there before, I think you'll be very happy once you do!

And if Union was gonna live up to the vibe set in their frequent Videri pop-ups. So I'm keeping an eye on Craft Habit, hoping they thrive now there are more things to do as more shops of supreme interest open up. I used to love the maker space concept that Jerry's artarama used to sponsor, near the now defunct SRI. So I am really fiending for a art/craft maker hookup now and then to learn a new craft and make friends. I'm gonna keep them on my bookmark list so I don't forget.

It's a bit pricey, we went as a group to do a Galenintine event to paint ceramics. We had to pay…read morefor a ticket AND for the ceramic of our choice. Each piece is individually priced.

Would do this again!

We came for a special Girl Scout theme night. This was our first time here and it was super cute. I…read moreappreciated the effort they put in for the Girl Scouts. It was $15 for the studio fee and 1 s'more. They had a special room with GS themed ceramics and portraits. The paints were organized very well, but it definitely got a little crowded at the paint area. It was $30 for the s'more ceramic, which is a little pricey. My little Brownie chose a s'more ceramic that opens in the top. Overall, she said it was her favorite activity of the weekend and she really enjoyed it.

Because I also received a free downloadable document as part of my order, they charged me immediately (partially delivered). The canvas was exactly as it appeared online but as a beginner I didn't understand that the partially painted sections would make it more difficult to follow the pattern. Likewise, the painted portions present at least 2 colors and only one color of fiber is included. The instruction booklet is not detailed enough for an absolute beginner. Was this kit accurately presented? Yes. Is this kit a good value? Absolutely not! I expected to sit down with it and learn to needlepoint. Before I can do so I need to complete the painting, buy at least one more color fiber, and find additional tutorials online. VERY disappointed!! (2 stars because the response to my email was very quick.)

Downtown Apex fascinates me. For a small town, there's an amazing array of retail stores and shops…read moreall focused on keeping the money stream in the community and away from the box retailers. Southern Home Crafts takes that idea to a different level. It's an entire store of locally made goods. There's nothing quite like a home-made item, whether it's a candle, soap, buttons, picture frame, serving tray, or children's clothes. Lacking the cold perfection of similar mass-market items, things here are unique. The soaps, made in Raleigh, had some interesting scent combinations. The mugs can be special ordered, as can the paperweights, but if you have a favorite picture of your pet, you can have a paperweight made modeled on your pet. There are ready-made gift baskets or empty baskets to create your own. There are business cards near each grouping, and notes to contact the person who created the item directly for any special orders. Although there's a decent selection of things here, it's not crowded or overdone. It's nicely done.
