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. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in Montrose!

I was in the area for my birthday and she gave us suggestions on what else we could get into while we were there. They also had shoes, hello kitty and larger bears to paint. The process is very personal so that took some getting used to but I found that to be the most enjoyable about it. You get one hour to decorate your bear and if you're local you have a few days to pick it up once it dries. Our bears were $85 and shipping was $15. The delivery was smooth and my baby made it to me without any issues. I named her Fern :-). I'd definitely recommend this as a fun activity that's not liquor or food focused. Parking was a bit hectic but we were able to find something right outside. The area itself is walkable with lots of shops and places to eat surrounding it also.

It was hard for a group of Type A's to pour paint everywhere and make a mess, to get to your final piece, but we pushed through (lol) and loved our creations. And the staff was amazing.

There's a variety of art mediums and options for any kind of craft or project you have in mind. It's slightly pricier than some other places, HOWEVER when you consider the sheer quality of the products offered, it makes perfect sense. The owner is very friendly and is so helpful in helping you choose the right art supplies. She'll even help you save money on products you don't really need. Definitely recommend a visit here.

The dude that works here is super helpful and always has suggestions if you're not sure what exactly you need. Cost wise, I don't think it's cheap, but the prices are all fair.

Best way to describe this place is a thrift store for crafting.

You can find almost anything in here: yarn, fabric, kids books, cookbooks, misc cards, seashells, school supplies, cds, stickers, ink pads, and a lot more. It's organized in sections but it's a lot to take in. Most things were sold by weight or number of items which was very affordable. Most expensive thing was the yarn which was $12/pound, but everything else we bought was less than $2 each. If you took the time, you could find some steals. I got a brand new jacket for my dog for $1. I'll definitely be coming back 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.

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,
