Although I've only been able to visit this cute little shop when I'm in town for school functions,…read moreI've found it to be a wonderful addition to an already adorable little area. The ladies I've encountered at House Mountain have all proven to have endless amounts of patience with my lack of knowledge and never seem bothered by my level of naivety, which is the only reason I'm finally comfortable shopping anywhere in-person. Granted, the assortment in the shop is less than a large, bigger box store. However, I've been really impressed by the volume and quality of their hand-dyed varieties, not to mention that they even carry at least one (maybe more) skein dyed uniquely for this store. You can always ask them if they have any sales running. Sometimes there's a special or two, but remember, quality products cost a bit more and it's important to support small business whenever we can. Regardless, you'll no doubt find at least a few supplies here to be "a cut above the rest." Perhaps their needle collection or their many fingering weights will catch your eye. Somehow they can even tell you about the local dyers; I have found that rather impressive. I wish I lived closer, as I would truly love to take part in their retreats and classes. They have a monthly newsletter with event details, including several summer camps for the kiddos. Ask about their classes the next time you stop by. The ladies I've seen in and around the store have all been delightful. It seems to be a town of fiber lovers!

This is an excellent store to find your crafty products. I'm not a crafty or artistic person, so…read morethis store did not appeal to me, but I was with someone who is and they continue to return for more bags of this stuff.

I hope the pictures I have posted will help explain the pricing and the hours they are open. This is a must visit for people who enjoy being crafty, scrappy, and artistic.

Well this is your store to take them. Want to try a new hobby but not spend a ton? Go get some material here to practice on or try your hand at. While there a few weeks ago here is what I saw through the store: glass bottles, fabric, yarn, crochet hooks, knitting needles, kids crafts, leather, paints, scrapbooking paper, crafting books, albums, and organizers. You really can find anything there. I highly recommend going there if you want to try a new hobby or take supplies to.

I bought my Denise Interchangeable Knitting Needle set years ago online and I've never regretted my…read moredecision. It was about $50 for my set but it comes with needle heads size 5 to 15 as well as various sizes of cords. They also have a lifetime warranty. If, for some reason, something breaks (due to normal usage!), just mail it back to the company with $1 to cover shipping. Last month, I broke the black connector tips off two of my cords. I was pretty frazzled because the cord popped out and I had to do a mad rush to save my dropped stitches so I wouldn't have to re-knit my project. Anyway, I mailed the two cords back to the company and about a week later, I get an envelope from Denise Interchangeable Knitting Needles with a letter apologizing and giving a possible explanation of why two of my cords broke (my set was made more than two years ago, which is prior to when they changed their machines to make less bubbles in the cords - or something to that effect) and then they sent me a WHOLE NEW SET of cords. That is so awesome! Definite 5 stars for one of the best inventions ever and the BEST customer service!

The owner spent a ton of one-on-one time helping one son make a key chain while my other son made a necklace. The selection of beads, yarn, string, and other things was almost overwhelming... and that doesn't even include the other activities, such as painting and knitting, which we didn't do. Pricing was super reasonable. We were on vacation from DC and had such a nice time we would consider coming back on a day trip for a kid's birthday party in the future. Highly recommend!

This is kind of the worst Michaels I've ever been to. We just moved here from New Jersey, and I…read morehave to say this Michaels has such a limited selection of goods. They have like 3 options for buying markers, all of which are the most expensive kind of markers. They have almost no wooden paintable things, and barely any cool paper or stickers or craft supplies. Mostly, they have picture frames for interior decorating. They also have a few random paperweight type items like golden letter and number statues, random stuff like that. It's also a bit disorganized. I came in for crafts supplies, and instead found random like dollar store cups and stuff. The staff were good, I have no complaints there! It's just their selection of items really sucks.

On top of being ill-stocked and ill-prepared, the gentleman who works there has repeatedly been rude and condescending.

They are too small and very rude.
