This cute shop is mainly a yarn store, with tons of skeins of yarns for sale. They also have some accessories/notions and other items for projects, and I did find a cute embroidery kit. They host events and classes, and I would love to take an intro to crochet class some time. They also do other meetups like "Knitfaced Nights" which are drop in community craft nights. Yelp just announced their trend forecast for 2026 and searches for crocheting classes are up 220%!! So if you're looking for a new hobby, put away your phone and check out Unwind GR.

It's a monthly club and I finally got a sneak peek inside.. absolutely ADORABLE!! What a great way to support a local business and artists.

If you have any time to kill before a concert, it's a third Thursday, or you're just wanting to browse, this is definitely the place for you. The store specializes in cute fun gifts and trinkets. They have everything from cookbooks to baby toys to stickers. There are gifts for almost every age and demographic. There are often goods from local artists and creatives which is really nice. One of my favorite features is the monthly art locker. For a one-time cost, you get a physical key with access to a locker with monthly goodies! The staff may be some of the kindest I've met. You can always talk about your day or learn about what's been going on downtown. There is a shop cat named Yuki who is soooooo cute and is my personal "where's waldo" whenever I'm in the store. Their marketing and promotions are really fun and the videos often make me laugh. They offer some free and paid events, making it a nice place to meet new people and engage in creativity. One of these days I need to make their cloud workshop!

Moving from California, I felt completely lost. The community, the friendships, and the familiar…read morefaces I relied on were suddenly gone. For years, I had poured my time and energy into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai, but when I arrived here, I couldn't find the right training environment. I was looking for an atmosphere built on inclusivity and genuine community, and without that, it just didn't feel whole anymore. I wasn't sure I'd ever find my footing here until I finally mustered up the courage to try something completely new, pottery. When I tell people what I'm obsessed with now, they're usually shocked. It feels like a massive departure from Jiu Jitsu & Muay Thai, but the truth is, the most important part of it to me was always the community. If it weren't for the incredible team at Pottery Lane, I would still be searching for something to fill that void. Big shout out to Kelly, Kate, and Cat for making me feel so incredibly welcome since day one. Today started out as a terrible day, but having a place like this to go completely turned it around. Pottery Lane has truly become my home away from home and I'm so grateful for Pottery Lane.

I was given a gift certificate to attend a class and chose to do wheel throwing. We attended the…read morefirst day in the new location and it was quite spacious and well attended! There's ample parking and the space is easy to find. There was a hand sculpting class going on at the same time, with members and staff working on their own projects as well. Everyone was extremely friendly and I really liked the atmosphere. The class itself was challenging but I really liked having a full demonstration before doing things ourselves. The instructors were really helpful and I liked that there were several so it felt like people didn't have to wait as long for help. I had a bit of an advantage having thrown before in high school but had forgotten a lot. I felt it was pretty beginner friendly and they did a great job explaining the names of things without going too heavily into the jargon nor feeling patronizing. I felt really confident with the bowl I made and liked being able to add my own design to it at the end as well. I do think it would be nice to know about the glaze options ahead of class just in case that affects how we structure or design our pieces. Overall, I definitely think the one-time class was really fun. The memberships and 8-week courses really intrigued me so I definitely think I'll be looking into those!
