Incomparable little art boutique featuring a select few local artists in different media. The…read morepersonable owner is a singularly effective promoter of her town and well worth spending a few extra moments for conversation. Every now and then the Purple Turtle Artisan Collective takes its proverbial show on the road for a pop-up store incarnation which is how I first encountered it, and her. So, how I first encountered them, the store and Amanda Scholz, the owner. I'm not sure if I'm clarifying, so I'll move on. If you're within an hour or two drive, or if you have the time to take a little diversion between the Twin Cities and Milwaukee, very well worth your time. However you won't be able to get the unique Sarasvati water color on canvas because I picked up the last one.

When you walk into any store, they way you're treated as a customer is very important to me. Paul is so kind, knowledgeable, and very personable. The store has one-of-a-kind finds. Including up-cycled items and there is a lot to choose from. The store is kept clean, tidy and organized. The store is also very well decorated which helps to give you ideas when decorating your own home or pulling together a gift for someone. Every time I go in the store there is something different, fun, and new to choose from. Everywhere from 'primitive' looking to modern, and artsy. Everything I've purchased from this store has a very special place in my heart. Their hand poured candles are also very nice! I LOVE the Victorian Pines scented candle for wintertime. I highly recommend visiting this store if you haven't! You will want to visit often, I promise.

The space is fun and quirky: loosely circus-themed decor mixed with splattered paint and supplies leaves a feeling of organized chaos. After checking in, you are assigned a table, which you may share with others! Pick your project, order a drink, and get to work! Staff are very friendly and always around to help you out, if needed! The project options are varied, so everyone should find something that they enjoy! Minimal experience required and the instruction sheets are pretty good at explaining what to do! I had the Freakshow cocktail, which was their take on an espresso martini! Tasty, standard cocktail enjoyed while building my Stone Serving Board project.

I give huge props to Martha in the Framing area. She has given me so much advice on how to frame signed jerseys and how to make them look better. I highly recommend if you are doing any framing work to see her as she really treats your work like it's going on her own wall and will be very OCD with your final product.

I was here on Sunday, Nov. 13th. So was everyone else! All Halloween and Fall products were on…read moreclearance 80% off, while Thanksgiving was already 60% off. Christmas items were all 40% off. The prices on the other items in the store were all various types of sales. Some sales prices were great deals while others (especially Christmas projects) were still not even a deal at all yet. There are no employees available anywhere except at the front check out. There were two check out lanes open and three self checkout computers. One employee had to stand near the self checkout to call people over to use them. The employees, including the one who was currently ringing someone up, would be yelling out to the line ... "If you are paying by credit or debit, there are self checkout registers open." Because I wasn't using self- checkout, the woman finished my order without ever talking to me except when she yelled across, "I can help the next person." There was no further talking. My items were simply tossed in a bag. Somehow 2 of the 4 spools of thread that I wanted to purchase got lost before I bought them. The store was hot, busy, chaotic, with a meandering line instead of one that followed the path they prefer because there were not enough associates. I did find all the items I needed. However, all categories of merchandise were spread apart because there would be some in the aisle and some in the end caps. It was a frustrating and still productive trip. But know your prices before you go!

Dickens Pickins also has offered classes in jewelry making, crafts, and gardening. A friend I knew took the Outdoor Winter Planter workshop. She created a beautiful planter that would rival something that a local nursery would offer.
