They carry unique, often handcrafted items sourced from around the world that you won't find in most art stores.

The class price was $75 and covered instruction, materials, Mimosas, and delicious brunch fare. I opted to attend solo and was lucky enough to make a few crafting pals during the class.

A woman-owned business and keeping our community growing and working together to make beautiful things. Sign me up again and again!!

We got to use sticks instead of dowels and there was brunch served. Brunch included hard-boiled eggs, coffee, fruits and a quiche. There was trendy/cool music playing in the background and the space was nice because there were lots of arts-and-crafts tools laying all around. My only objection is how expensive the class is. This place hosts all kinds of different arts and crafts events for both adults and kids.

There were rows upon rows of all different types of cross stitch kits, patterns, books, trinkets, supplies, and more. When I first arrived, it was semi busy so I just wondered around looking at all the goodies. Luckily, it died down and I had the complete attention of the Saturday staff, Cindy and Christine (not sure of her name). They were very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful; especially when I was trying to decide on the fabric and threads to go with the kits I bought. These ladies were amazing! It had been a long time that I have cross stitched and they worked with my budget and the prices seemed reasonable. They also hold classes. I highly recommend this shop and look forward to going back. You're in for a treat.

Just for the record, I'm reviewing Fleur de Lis and its owner Jenna for her custom wedding…read moreinvitation services. We came to Jenna with a very complex, personal design, and she knocked it out of the park. She even added to and enhanced our concept. And from having worked in the creative industry, let me say that this is a real skill, especially when it comes to dealing with a customer who already has a very clear idea of what he or she wants. Given the tricky nature of our wedding invitation concept, we wanted to shop around to make sure we got the best services at the best price. After visiting three designers, we found Jenna was by far the best option for both design and printing -- and she's priced accordingly. That being said, her pricing is very fair given the services she offers, which include hand-printing your invites on-site in her studio. Bottom line: If you're looking want high-quality invitations done right in the Denver area, I could not recommend Jenna highly enough.

It looks like they can do custom wedding invitations, too, but I can't speak too much to that. It's sandwiched between LarkBurger and a fro-yo place - ideal placement for this girl! I have to stop while walking from lunch to dessert! I bought 2 birthday cards here and they were a bit pricier than buying them at Kroger or something. I mean, it IS a specialty paper store so they're higher quality and more unique than the Hallmark card you can buy at the grocery store.
