    A bowl that's ready to go to the kiln (a colored glaze will be added later)
    Grace C.

    My family did a private party for 7 people here in December. I really enjoyed the class! Most of us were first-timers. The instructor got a station set up for each of us, and then we were led through the different steps of making our own bowl. She walked around and gave us guidance when needed. When we messed up, she stepped in to help us fix the problem. Aprons are provided, but you'll want to wear old/crummy clothes anyway because there's nothing to protect your pants or your sleeves.. There were a lot of options in this basic beginner class. Bowls could be flat, taller, round, heart-shaped, scallop-edged, etc. Lastly, we picked the color(s) that we wanted our bowls to be. There was even the option to hand-paint the bowls. We didn't get to take our bowls home right away because they needed to go through the kiln twice, I think. The wait time before we get our bowls back should end up being around 3-5 weeks I believe. There is a very cute and friendly little dog freely roaming around the studio. Overall, a fun & pleasant experience!

There also aren't a lot of employees to go to for help or who will come up to you asking if you need help. But I did go on a Saturday, so maybe they were just busy. I did see a lot of dressy fabrics, so if that's what you're looking for then maybe you'll get lucky here.

    **************A SEAMSTRESS DREAM*************************…read moreLORD HAVE MERCY, a dream come true. I had never heard of this place before I stepped foot in it to make a masterpiece. I had actually visited on Good Friday and they were closed. I live in Katy and it was a 30 minute drive. I was upset but kind of my fault because you should always call a new place first before visiting. I pulled up and saw no cars and was surely disappointed. I politely got back in my car and decided I would visit another day. Well the following week I decided to visit because I needed to drop shoes off at the shoe shop. I walked in and felt like I was dreaming. It was such a variety of material it was unreal. I am not a seamstress but I have a creative vein for making a masterpiece. I decided to take my time and walk around and observe, look and allow my creative juices to flow. Then an angel appeared CLAUDIA, she was the sweetest girl ever. She answered all of my questions, offered expertise knowledge and helped me sort through many different options. Of course a creative person never makes choices overnight. So I left the store and told her I would return soon. The following week I returned with more choices and the need to make a final decision. When she seen the masterpiece she was floored. She then proceeded to talk about her mother's 50th birthday. It was funny because I am preparing for my 50th birthday and I was sharing with her that I don't mind sharing information with her as well to make her mother's event a success. What impressed me the most is all of the staff are welcoming to all ages and race along with being bilingual. I am always disgusted when I walk into an establishment and no one speaks ENGLISH which is the first language in HOUSTON. They are all nice and helpful CLAUDIA, stood out to me because she helped me personally. She was absolutely amazing. She gave hands on expertise and was very patient and kind. It was my first time in the store and she made me feel welcome. Her energy and poise were unmatched. I am looking forward to shopping at this establishment again.

    It's rodeo time and I'm on the hunt for turquoise accessories to complete my western attire…read more I've never owned any turquoise and since I probably won't wear it much, I was looking for something reasonably priced but at the same time decent. On the internet, I ended up finding a cute triangular pendant at Michael's for $4.99 with an additional 25% off if purchased online. The website did mention that it was 27 mm but I wanted to get an up close look to see if it would be a good fit for me. Once in store, it was easy to find what I was looking for because the website tells you exactly what aisle the product is on. Soo many pendants to choose from but I found mine! It was smaller and more delicate than I preferred it to be, however, I did find a different one more along the lines of what I was looking for. It was a turquoise colored teardrop priced at 14.99 and also 25% off online. Since this was a little more than what I was looking to spend, I definitely ordered online. I know that 25% may not sound like much to you but to me, a discount is a discount (smile). In the meantime, I walked out to go check out another store on the strip in search for more western like attire. I barely stepped foot in the next store when I got a ping saying that my order was ready. It had only been 3 minutes! Talking about convenient and fast service! With egg prices going up, I WILL continue to save wherever and however I can.

This Michaels store has several different types for different projects, which means they are all over the store. By my simple search on Michaels app, I had traveled from aisles 23 to 17 to 27 to OMG... I was going to pull my hair out. Finally, I searched on Target app. Boom there it is. Since I was at Michaels store, I know this craft store should have it. Yes it did, according to the app. But I can't get it until tomorrow morning. No one explained why. Maybe no one can fulfill the order as they were about to close. So, let me find it on the shelf. But no... It was empty. Ok, five minutes before closing. I was alerted by a friendly employee. I saved my sanity by going to Target store. Yup, I got what I wanted immediately and cheaper.

    I am very excited to have discovered this hidden gem. When I first walked in I only saw needlepoint…read morecrafting supplies and two ladies sitting at a table knitting. I was quickly assured that the yarn room was in the back. I asked if they had crochet patterns and once again I was not disappointed. I shared that I was looking for a crochet pattern for a dress or top for myself. The lady who worked there went and rounded up single patterns, magazines and books for me to peruse. I found some really nice patterns and was able to purchase the quantity of yarn I needed. I also scored on the yarn as it was wet spun linen at 1/2 price. The yarn room is arranged by weight of yarn and has many lovely choices. There is also lots of crocheting supplies and books from which to choose. The ladies were very helpful and they oohed and aahed over my ravelry project page as we discussed my various pattern and yarn choices. That was probably my favorite part of this shopping excursion.

    I called the store last week looking for Cascade 220 and Rowan Felted Tweed DK. I was told they…read morecarried one of them and that someone could help me find a substitute for the other. I appreciated the offer because while I've learned - and am still learning - about yarn substitution, it's still one of those tasks I'd rather get expert-level help with. So yesterday I swung by in-person to ask about the yarns. I made sure to paste ALL the yarn and needle info from my knitting instructions on my phone to show whoever was going to help me. There was a class going on and only one person was available to help (although she looked busy preparing something for the class while standing at a counter). I first asked for Cascade 220. The staffer wasn't sure of that particular line, so she asked for the weight. The yarn thickness category designated by the Craft Yarn Council (CYC) was the LAST thing on my mind. I'm not a vintage-only knitter or anything, and I dare call myself a prolific maker, but I'd say only half of the patterns I've used since I started knitting in the 1990s include the CYC's yarn weight standards' symbol: an illustrated yarn skein with its CYC category number. I'm more used to seeing it on actual yarn labels, so it's not my habit to note it when looking for yarn in-person. Also, no one asked me for the CYC weight when I called last week; we were all on the same wavelength during that call. So, I told the staffer the GRAM weight of the skein, and the conversation immediately shifted. As nice as this staffer was, she walked me over to a wall of yarn, showed me the store's copy of the CYC yarn weight standards chart, and started explaining how yarn weights are determined from lace to jumbo. I didn't bother interrupting her to say anything in my defense. When she first asked me for the yarn weight, I didn't ask "do you mean the physical mass of the yarn or the yarn thickness category?" But as someone representing Nimble Fingers, neither did she. And I do understand there may have been an additional disconnect. While at the wall pointing out certain yarns, the staffer mentioned that the store's yarns are organized by CYC weight. So who knows, right? Maybe she first asked me about the yarn weight to figure out where to send me on their yarn wall while I wandered the store with a near-empty tote bag big enough to smuggle home a sheep. Anyway... At first she didn't want to look at the typed yarn info on my phone for some reason. And without my reading glasses I rarely need while out 'n' about, I fumbled a bit reading my well-organized yarn notes - with highlighted needle sizes and skein amounts - out loud, which I'm sure added to me looking like a fish out of water. The staffer pointed out some yarns that might work as substitutions, and she suggested that I take a picture of them, which I did, so I could think more about my ultimate choice. But because yarn substitution is usually more nuanced than matching a thickness category and calling it a day, I was super disappointed that I clearly wasn't talking to whoever was on the phone last week. I'd been practicing my brioche stitch on acrylic stash yarn for a few months. I was SO ready to buy the yarn for my project. So that happened. The staffer was pleasant enough throughout the interaction, and even dropped a now-fashionable "y'all" on your Cousin Kerstin. But honestly, experiences like this can hit differently for some BIPOC makers, especially newer knitters navigating crafting spaces where assumptions about knowledge and belonging can feel loaded, like when my answer to this staffer's yarn weight question was apparently the "wrong" one. I also noticed an older 2019 customer photo on this Yelp page showing a much larger yarn selection, so I'm not sure if the store layout has changed or if there are additional areas I wasn't shown, but I was only shown a single wall of yarn during my visit. Between the awkward interaction that didn't match the informed help I got over the phone, the overall limited selection, and the fact that we took the bus out there specifically looking for yarn options I can't usually find at chain craft stores, I don't see myself making the trip again.
