Given there's no food here but the second floor of the mall has a great selection of quick food. My daughter made a water bottle with icing and some charms and I made a bear. I just didn't know that mine would take a week to dry I was joking about it but it was actually true. The girls who work here were very nice. I came on a Sunday to pick it up and the whole mall is packed so I might try to come in during the week. When I came in it was just my daughter and I. I definitely want to come back to make my own picture frame. Also the paint did dry up a little darker so I would go brighter

After painting the piece we were told it would be 20 days for pick up. We went in 16 days before Mother's Day, believing we would have sufficient time, only to be blind sided. They should update their website and the flyer they give you when you arrive. This is bad business! Had I known the turn around time was so long, I would have went to Color Me Mine. Update. The pottery came in 13 days rather than 20. Thank you! My rating is now

Very helpful. Fast and price is reasonable. Price was $3 to reattach a string to my pendant.read more

After we decided we left for a bit to get cash while Helen customized those bracelets to our wrist size, and came back once she was done. The process took about an hour for 2 bracelets but so worth it. This is a hole in the wall place but such a hidden gem. I lov supporting down to earth ppl & small businesses. I'll keep continuing to support her whenever I want a Chinese string bracelet again! :-) My friend and I got the red string bracelet with jade on it. It came out to about $25 per person. So worth it :')

I had a fun experience at my first rug tufting here! Located within the Atlantic blvd plaza so…read moreunderground parking is easy. The spot looks a little small, but they have private back rooms to work on your rugs. One of the hardest parts for us was having a design ready! That maybe took an hour lol I would come with multiple designs in mind and to make sure the color blocking is larger, especially for your first time. After we chose our design, we got a lesson on how to use the tufting guns and especially the safety of how to hold them because the needle is quite sharp. We were then set up with our rugs, and got underway. You trace your design with markers first with a projection. When you start tufting, the key is to have a steady hand, try as best to evenly space your rug lines as you go and keep a good pace, and only doing one color at a time. After this they will show you how to save down your rug and then will add the backing for you because the glue/iron is very hot. This spot was conveniently located to grab drinks and snacks at nearby businesses. Overall a really fn experience and Iove seeing my new rug everyday!

I have not tried out their tufting services. Their hours posted on Yelp isn't really accurate…read moreeither depending on their tufting appointments or if they need to stock the store when shipment comes in. Staff said it's best if you come after 1:30pm on weekdays to ensure their store being open. Weekends are pretty much just open. I come here to check out what Pop Mart items they have in stock. They also carry limited Labubu clothing. They have select figurines on display for trading at the front where you pay. This is great if you happened to open duplicates from Pop Mart. Staff said they don't refill display boxes to avoid customers getting duplicates unlike Pop Mart stores themselves. Their requirements for trading is that you may not trade a figurine/item if display already has the same item. They don't want duplicates in their trading case. You must bring the card that came in the box with it and trade has to be from the same series. Or if you see something on display you actually like but still want to try your luck like myself. Purchase a blind box and hope you get one you like, if not trade it with the display if there aren't any duplicates! You may also purchase display items (same price as blind box). Their prices are same as Pop Mart.

This place is an absolute gem. Great location, easy parking, and the kind of shop you can happily…read morespend way more time in than you planned. The inventory is incredible--eclectic, unique, and full of beautiful beads, materials, and everything you could possibly need for jewelry-making. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking for something specific, they have it all--beads, string, findings, and so many inspiring options you won't see just anywhere. What really sets this shop apart, though, is Christina. She is truly the heart of the place. She's warm, funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and just an all-around joy to be around. She can help you design something custom, guide you through making it yourself, or even create it for you. And if you need repairs, she's amazing at that too. They also offer classes, which is such a great touch--I took one on making bracelets and it was such a fun experience. What a cool thing to be able to do locally. Honestly, I never thought I'd say this, but I actually look forward to needing repairs--because it means I get to come back and see Christina. She makes every visit feel personal and fun, and you always leave in a better mood than when you walked in. Such a wonderful shop with a truly special owner. Highly recommend checking it out.

She's an incredible teacher with really great intrapersonal skills. I wasn't too sure what to expect, but she was so kind, knowledgeable and made the entire class feel super comfortable. Additionally, the shop has an incredible variety of beads, pendants, findings, books and just about anything you need to make jewelry. Whether you're a novice or super experienced, you're sure to feel welcomed here. P. S. Gold plated and gold filled items are available for purchase (yay!)

Nick was super friendly, provided creative ideas and was willing to help us same day. Showed up and was quickly helped with our project. Nick needed to customize the frames and offered us creative solutions. He provided us a super reasonable quote and asked us to return in about 10 minutes. We went to grab a quick refreshing drink and returned in about 15 minutes. Nick had prepared all of our paintings onto customized frames. It made the pictures more lively and exquisite. Thanks Nick and Artist Brand Canvas! Will be returning for all future projects.

This is a very, very tightly packed store, very similar to the outlets you find in the textiles downtown. But tell them what you need and they will find it for you! The stuff they sell are not name brands but items that industrial sewing factories use. They speak some English so it helps if you have pictures to help explain your projects. I brought knits to dress 5 kids for Halloween and the cost for all the fabric cane out to 30 dollars. They don't have every color of thread or zippers in the rainbow, nor bias tape, but creative folks will teach you how to improvise. Because it is a very crowded place, best not to bring seniors with balance issues or small children.

It's a small, family-run, local business, so it's much more deserving of our business than Amazon or Michaels. Prices are good, too. I will say this, though. The owner's son is there full-time, so we see him enough. He's always been professional and helpful, just a bit cold. But I just noticed today that he's so warm to virtually everyone else who walks in the door, and has conversations with them! When we walk in, he does not greet us and will not speak to us unless we directly ask him something. We're not loud or demanding, I just get the sense that he does not like us. I still highly recommend this local business. I'm just saying, if you feel a difference in treatment from your fellow shoppers from the son, just know that you are not alone.
