There are several arts and…read morecrafts-type places in town and in my limited experience, Island Studios had the best selection and at fairly reasonable prices. It's also a handsome place with their various pieces well displayed. I was particularly impressed with their glass wall pieces and some wood boxes by a person on Orcas Island by the name of River Jim. I also thought that the owner was very helpful, especially since I'll probably buy one of River Jim's boxes in the future. Jane Y.'s experience is unfortunate, although a sometimes high shipping/handling charge for often fragile and uniquely shaped artistic objects is more common than not. And it is certainly something I expect and factor into my purchasing decisions. I'm also usually suspicious of Yelp reviews from a profile with no picture and only one pointed posting. I call this a "drive by".

Edited to respond to the owners condescension: Based off…read morethis reply I think the style of customer service speaks for itself. Saying I was happy with the option to use a clasp as opposed to a weld shows the lack of awareness. I was not thrilled but had promised my 8 year old and drove 30 min for the appointment so felt stuck. Very quickly after I initially contacted you with concerns, my daughter's bracelet fell off and was unfortunately lost. You offered to re-weld mine but about a week later prior to being able to even consider making arrangements to come back for a re-weld mine also fell off and I've been unable to locate it. The reason for this review now is because Yelp suggested your establishment, and yes I would still be bothered when I spent $100 on now missing jewelry shortly after purchase. I've since had a new one placed on myself without ANY issues. It's welded very strongly. And I got my daughter a bracelet with a clasp that is age appropriate and it's remained on through school, sports and normal 8 year old activities without issue. Sorry to upset you with factual details of your products and services. Your clasp was obviously subpar as was your welding skills. Why would I come back to have you weld it again when your welding abilities didn't last even a month? I suggest kindly touching grass. Original review: Got a "permanent" bracelet that fell off within the month. Should have just ordered a bracelet elsewhere. They clearly don't know how to weld correctly. Their customer service needs work as well.

I have a nice experience here working with the shop owner on creating a custom ring. I had wedding…read morerings and leftover rings from my grandparents and parents that really were not useful to me. I wanted the gold for something that would carry their memory and also be something that I would enjoy. I took all those rings and she used my gold to cast a new ring for me. The result is a very nice looking gold ring that is made up of my families gold and has my grandmothers wedding diamond in it. And I wear it regularly and really enjoy it and enjoy the memory of where it came from.

I heard her tell a customer the lines on a top she had tried on were wrong for her body type. She brought a different top and wow what a difference. From frumpy to elegant. The fashions are surprisingly forward, too. I bought jeans two years ago there I saw this year in a Neiman's catalogue. A great experience. Go.

My husband was eyeing a pub glass but he already has a couple pub glasses and we weren't sure if we could get it safely home in our luggage so we passed on it. He's been talking about that glass ever since! He asked me to see if they still have it and can get it mailed to us. I talked with Wendy who was wonderful!! She texted me a picture of the pub glasses so we could be sure to get the right one. She is sending it to us and she was so kind and wonderful to truly go the extra mile for one pub glass for a customer in Iowa. I highly recommend this great shop and am definitely going to shop there when we visit the islands next time.

However, after being completely ignored by the two young salesgirls while they talked about toaster pastries for fifteen minutes and then having another salesperson glare at my young daughter while she gently (and under heavy supervision) touched a piece of jewelry, we couldn't get out of there fast enough. The store is also extremely hard to navigate, as it's so small. There are plenty of other boutiques nearby with friendly salespeople and enough room to move around.
