Finally checked out Jerry's on South Blvd... they recently just opened!…read more I do remember this location being a bike store and was sad to see them go, but now having Jerry's here is a great thing. Aisles and aisles of supplies. Lots of variety and I could probably spend hours here. Staffers are nice and friendly. Great to have another art supply store in the area.

Upcycle Arts is basically an arts & craft thrift store. You can find all types of cool stuff here…read morefor scrapbooking, sewing, knitting, painting and so much more. I like coming here when I have an idea of what I'm needing or wanting otherwise you could easily spend the whole day here. Prices are also very reasonable! It's located in a strip mall next to Book Buyers and some other shops. There's plenty of parking out front. You can also donate your used or unwanted art supplies too. They have a list of things they accept on their website.

There's not a craft I haven't done, so I'm pretty familiar with what art supplies cost. Some things…read moreat Upcycle are very reasonably priced but some aren't. Large paper punches are close to the price of new. Some paints are used and priced too close to what you can get new. I do recommend checking them out but I hope the prices on overpriced items will get adjusted.

I visited Michael's yesterday (09/22/2024) and was treated rudely by an employee ( name was…read moreChing). She approached me while I stood in line and asked if I was using a credit card. When I replied yes, she ushered me to self check out. I explained I do not like self check out. She reluctantly began checking me out. I told her I had a coupon code and she interrupted me in a demeaning fashion & told me "We don't take coupons anymore!", She was hateful, rude and abrupt! She displayed no customer service skills or training. I would rather drive across town than to visit the RiverGate location again!

Popped into this Michaels looking for some late Halloween decorations and perhaps some for…read moreThanksgiving. A few days before the end of the month, the very few remaining items were marked down 70% which was nice. But the main focus in this part of the store is on Christmas decorations. So clearly, plan ahead. Pick up what you need and store it for next year. A was also able to look at the framing section and their prices aren't too much out of whack considering that it's ready very quickly. Especially when you need an odd size like 15 by 35. I'm not a crafter or a scrapbooker, so I couldn't really tell you if those sections are particularly enthralling.

We had made an appointment for 5 to paint and you would think she would appreciate the business but she wanted to make sure you knew you had to leave in two hours if you were done or not. She continued to interrupt our painting with answers to questions about her business no one had asked, which set a very awkward tone. I would have paid an additional $25 for her to stay away from the table so we could have enjoyed our outing with our family and she not be so rude to us! Steer clear from this place and go somewhere else.

They also offer kits for everyone from beginners to experts, and have classes to help needle-pointers improve their skills. Busy store with adequate staffing. Located in the Park Towne Village mall on Woodlawn, it is easy to reach and provides loads of parking. As to value, bring your wallet. They sell a nice selection of quality products, but prices don't seem very competitive as everything seemed very expensive. Before you go, suggest you take a look on-line to get an idea of what is a good price.

We had a lot of fun at Dish It Out!…read more They open at 10am on Saturdays and we got there around 10:15. We were the second group there and shortly after, the place filled up! So I would recommend going early to get a table. They have a TON of pottery pieces to choose from including plates, vases, seasonal decorations, piggy banks, spoon rests, I mean you name it & they have it. I chose a Christmas plate for my son to put cookies on for Santa. You choose your own paint and have the freedom to kind of do what you want. They also have paint pens for more accurate drawing or writing words, you just have to ask up front. FYI - it takes up to 30 days to get your pottery back from the oven which I thought was quite a long time. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Upon entering, a staff member quickly approached us to make sure we knew it was $6 a person an hour to paint and it was a 30 day turn around for items. I'm glad they had this transparency and it made me feel welcome! There are plenty of tables to choose from and the employees were quickly cleaning tables when people left to clear up space. It was busy when we got there but we still found a table. They have so many different pieces to choose from for both adults and children. Piggy banks, animal figurines, plates, bowls, mugs, ring holders, seasonal pieces etc. I loved the selection of Christmas pieces in November! They also have examples of some pieces so you can get ideas. Many paint color options, different brush sizes, puffy paint, pencils to help sketch, water and napkins to clean brushes, sponges to help with designs, stencils, a binder of ideas etc. The employees were willing to help with a baby's footprints and she even drew an outline of an object we were trying to draw. This was so much fun and a great way to spend an afternoon! This place has been around for years and has changed ownership but looks the exact same inside!! I love it! The prices have definitely gone up which is why they didn't earn 5 stars. For 2 people to paint for an hour, a painted salad plate and a Christmas tree plate (that was the size of a salad plate) it was almost $90. We were asked to tip in addition to that which we did. Pretty pricy.
