This shop has evolved from being just a picture framing shop. I bopped in in recently and they…read morecurrently carry a huge selection of posters. No... not the kind with teen idols or the hang in there kitten. These posters are on the lines of looking like vintage art posters in the genre of classic rock, maps, and retro travel. They also have curated gifts with a strong local influence. The vibe was quite relaxed with vintage rock playing on the store's speaker, clean organized setup, and welcoming staff. I could easily drain my wallet shopping here. I am a huge fan of vintage looking maps and travel posters. I also was quite enamored with The Who's 2000 album cover art signed by John Entwistle's himself. John is The Who bassist and artist that drew the album cover. The framed piece is for purchase and can be yours. Plus they still are a framing shop. So if you have a need to frame something, this is your place for that professional custom service.

Rude and surly. Think customers are bothering them. No time to be bothered by outside traffic.read more

One would expect to find a gallery of this quality in San Francisco, Napa, or Half Moon Bay. One…read morewould expect prices to be two to three times what you'll find here. Everything about this gallery is magical. I could quite happily spend many hours getting lost in each masterpiece of this dreamy, sophisticated little gallery. I've attached just a smidgen of what's available, based on my own purchasing possibilities. Amongst, the "A grade" variety of art to be discovered, the futuristic alien themes featured by one of the owners are "out of this world" spectacular! Enjoy nearby food and libations, then head in here for some deep, soul nurturing, satisfaction. Excellent, place to bring a date.

This is such an awesome gallery…read more They had several artists on display and each one was great. Unique, interesting, conversation-sparking, and easy on the eyes. They had small prints as well if you couldn't splurge on the larger works. Definitely stood out among the businesses we visited that day.

On Main Street in Placerville, CA, is an artist gallery. It's a co-op of local Gold Country…read moreartists. Their work is displayed for purchase in this gorgeous historic brick building. The works range from jewelry, glass, wood work, ceramics, photography, sculpture, and paintings. Surprisingly the original art work was not outlandishly priced. Plus they have small originals, prints in smaller frame sizes to postcard size that are more affordable priced. My favorite works were Jack Nissen's wood bowls and painters Carol Quinn, Barbie Smith, and Valerie Bye. To me, their art echoes the beauty of our local landscape. I easily connected with that. I bopped in when Michael and Natalie were staffing the shop. Micheal had a bright, enthusiastic attitude. He warmly greeted everyone that walked. He had a great rapport with customers. No snobby pretentiousness. Besides the art another work in the building. The building itself is a beaut. It too has a rich history going back to 1850. You can read about it on a poster near the front door.

The last thing I need is to buy more craft supplies. I stopped by Kelsey's Needle Krafts while in…read morePlacerville and thought "I'll just look because I don't need anything". My friend saw the little sleds first. And I saw they were Lizzie Kate patterns which I love. And the pieces look small enough to compete while watching tv. So I bought a set of sleds, a couple of patterns and perforated paper. The ladies in the shop were so friendly. They help me look for what I needed. My local shop doesn't even give me the time of day so this was a nice welcome. I finished them! I'm so happy! Thank you for being in Placerville!

TEN STARS! I went into Kelsey's for the first time yesterday and I can't wait to go back again!…read moreRight on Main Street in Placerville by the Hardware Store. Easy to find and lots of parking lots and street parking. This is a store for Needle crafts: Embroidery, Needlepoint, Cross Stitch, Needle Felting, etc. As soon as I walked in the two ladies working greeted me with big smiles and introductions and offers to help! (This is so important to me) Made me feel welcomed right away. They helped me above and beyond to find what I needed, answer my questions, etc. AWESOME. They stock tons of patterns, several fabrics, and all the threads/floss you could desire! There is a sit and stitch open to anyone on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings and I'm planning my trip to hang out. All the other customers were friendly also. It was super busy. Great business!!!

Out of all of my years of working with print shops....NOTHING comes close to comparing to the level of customer service and QUALITY of the work I received working with RCD.

I highly recommend RCD and I will NEVER use anyone else. THEY ARE THE BEST!

The Spirit Halloween seasonal shop is up n running in Placerville, CA. It's in the shopping plaza…read morenext to In n Out on Forni Road. Right when you pull into the parking lot, the horror begins. Sidewalks and parking lot that look to be neglected with trash strewn along the outside of the building. Smells.. It definitely could do with a good power washing. Inside is just a bit better. The floors are scuffed up, dirty and "sticky" in some areas. Warning, right as you walk in there are towering tall motion activated grisly figures that move and make ghoulish noises. The gruesome horror theme continues with an apocalyptic subway scene with more figures. That scene dominates the middle of the open floor plan. To the left are costumes for adults. PG rated costumes including Disney and Pixar. The adult adult costumes are towards the back of the shop. But they did have a costume in the front that featured a body part which probably should have been displayed in the back of the shop. I heard and saw several fathers nervously ignoring their young children when asked what that costume was. The shop also has dog, children's, toddler, and baby Halloween costumes. But to get to the children's costume, you have to pass through the gruesome apocalyptic subway scene that dominates the front entrance and middle of the shop. This could be traumatizing for the little ones. And if you feel you are being watched, you probably are. Staff are trained to keep an eye out for potential shoplifting. They aren't sly about it.

I think it's a great option for costumes for kids and adults that get into Halloween. I loved their moving displays in the center of the building and the big doll display from Squid Game. They have a huge array of different costumes for kids and adults and dogs. They had fog machines and a lot of of spooky decorations like frames and doormats and things you can hang on your windows. Things are a little pricey, I'm not sure about the quality of some of the costumes, but it's definitely a great option for where we are at. I never had a problem with employees following me around, but they do roam the stores because there's a lot of kids there touching displays and running around. Some without parent supervision so I understand. Employees were generally very friendly and helpful.
