Texas Art Supply is my favorite art store, and it's HUGE! They have an incredible selection of…read moresupplies for all kinds of art and crafting projects. I've come here for children's art supplies, gifts, and paintbrushes. Their paintbrush selection is fantastic--I've used some for painting and even repurposed others for makeup, and they've all worked great. They carry everything you could possibly need: brushes, paint, canvases, drawing supplies like pencils, pens, chalk, and charcoal, and a huge variety of crafting materials. You'll find jewelry-making supplies, sand art, glitter, stencils, scrapbooking items, face paint, gold leaf, and even supplies for sculpture. The store is well-organized, and the staff is always helpful if you need to find something or have questions. It's a place where you can find inspiration for any creative project. Love this place; I highly recommend checking it out!

I only shop here because of certain supplies that I need. Unfortunately, the service at this…read morelocation has increasingly gone down here over the years. I always have trouble finding someone able to help or someone knowledgeable about their products. Sometimes they walk right past you just to avoid you. What kind of customer service is this? this last time really made me upset. I went in wanting to get some supplies and there was no one to help. They were all pretending to be busy on the other side of the school. And when I will try and go and approach one they seem to rush off somewhere else, again, pretending to be busy.. And there's one creepy looking guy in the back paper section. I've known him for years. He always just stands around and pretends to look busy and just stares at you very strange and weird. He never offers to help or anything. According to all these other reviews, it looks like they all have experienced the same situation with this guy. Who is he? Why is he like that? And why would the staff member park her neon green SUV in the handicap space. I see it park like that all the time ?!?

If you build models of any kind and level experience or are looking to buy a gift but not sure of…read morewhat is suitable you should visit here. Not only do they have a great selection of models but also a lot of parts, paints etc. Maybe more important they will give advice for beginners and experts. Sure you might find a model a few dollars cheaper on line but you do not get the advice and suggestions. If they do not have the exact model they are happy to order it for you. I find myself browsing, talking with staff and other customers and get input on my projects. This is as far as I know the only model shop in Houston so if do models, build model trains to beginner airplanes visit the store and help us keep this one open,

In fact I'm quite sure I remember her describing this place to me when she gave her Sunday lectures on the world yet to come...Anyway! It's in a cute small converted house. It's very pleasantly lighted and decorated - you really do feel like you walked into your granny's house when you first walk in. They have a space devoted to craft circles, and they have multiple displays of nice threads set up in several different rooms. In the back room they have the walls completed covered with various threads. The ladies working there (and even the ladies just shopping there) were very nice about re-directing me when they realized I was a lost little knitter. They provided a good list of other places to check (the first one I went to, I loved - Nimblefingers) and were generally just very friendly and welcoming.

I wanted to learn how to hand knot and it takes a certain amount of dexterity. She walked me through it several times until I figured it out and she was super patient! Once I was knotting successfully, she explained the various tools and how to select the right materials. Cathy stocks everything you need to get started and it's all reasonably priced. A few weeks later I returned to learn how to make bracelets on a wire and it was an equally successful and enjoyable class. I will definitely be returning for supplies and additional instruction.
