Man I love this place. It's on the pricey side, and the very definition of frivolous (I mean, I…read moredidn't *need* a giant tea strainer...) but there's no better place for DIY cooking kits, gifts for foodies, or obscure cooking tools/utensils. It seemed like time for a review update, since I'm in Eggshells all the time! They also have cooking classes, and are the single best place to stop on the Heights Sip & Shop (Third Thursdays). You never know what they'll have, last time I was in it was andouille sausage hot off the grill with cheese and a cup of hot buttered rum. Yum! My favorite purchases from here are my Mulling spices (the spices, and that giant tea strainer) and our wine glass charms that look like tiny cats trying to climb into the glasses. Useful AND adorable!

As a gift for Christmas, we took a recent class (demonstration) for making sauces. It was more of…read morea demonstration than a class. There was very little participation. We watched a Chef prepare the sauces while we sat as a group. A couple of students did some stirring but that was it. We were served the sauces over chicken and noodles at the end The shop was cute, the staff were great, but I would not spend this amount of money for a cooking demonstration.

I'm from out of town and called to see if I could have some La Bien Aimee yarn winded into cakes…read more Kandy very rudely dismissed me with a no. She said she doesn't wind yarn that comes from outside her store because her winder is very old. Even if she sells the brand. I was absolutely willing to pay and wanted to shop there as well. I'll be sure to let my yarn friends know not to shop here.

Such a great shop! Kandy was so great and helpful for a beginner like me. Great selection too!read more

And the place is huge! They didn't have a stationery section though, though they had some calligraphy pens and packs of thank you notes.

Lively music and a quiet studio made for a great time with the instructor practically giving us a one on one session. We sanded, distressed, stained, and painted our boards to our liking. They had a red and two white wines and soda, water, potato chips, and some assorted mini candy pieces like Almond Joy.

There are few things I love more than a spontaneous Saturday. So when brunch flowed into, "Let's go…read moreto Board and Brush," I pulled out my pennies and made it happen at the last minute. I am so glad that I did. This was my first time experiencing Board and Brush as I am more of a Painting With a Twist, chick; however, I loved the banging, staining and painting that went into the creation of my new board. Now, I want to stain EVERYTHING! LOL I am thankful that the owner easily accommodated my last minute addition. The layout of the space was pretty good though I wish my table had been pushed a little more away from the wall because the employees had to access things behind me a lot during the session and that was a little uncomfortable. It was also difficult to hear instructions sometimes and I think might have been helpful for the staff to have whistles to get everyone's attention for important things. Our group was highly verbal (smile). One additional thing that would have been nice is if we'd had the ability to adjust the design a little bit. I did not know that the corporate trademark designs were so very rigid that we couldn't do something simple like add a hook to the front of the board to accommodate the calendar I am going to hang from my board. Corporate really should give sites that bit of flexibility but it's cool because I'm going to install one myself as soon I get home. Overall, I had a great time with my friend and made a few new friends along the way. Great way to spend a Saturday!
