I brought in a stack of stuff a few months back, including a dress that was destined to become my…read morewedding dress. It was a simple jersey knit, but had a bunch of beaded panels that I wanted removed. The lady helpfully pointed out that without the beading and mesh, the cowl neck of the dress would likely not stay up. She offered to make a back strap out of the mesh to connect the back shoulders, and it came out perfect! I got the simple neckline I was after, without worrying about flashing my whole top half. It wasn't anything I would have thought of on my own, but I so appreciate the advice and wonderful tailoring. Hands down, best tailor ever!

I love this DIY workshop. If you aren't the crafty sort of person, than this is the place for you…read more They will give you all the help you need to complete your project. Not only do they have stencils or projects for classes but you can bring them a design or explain to them what you would like to do and they will customize it for you. They have class schedules that you can take on their website, or you can book a private group session (girls night out, bachelorette party etc). If you are still in doubt about your abilities, than you could always shop their Etsy store. But you should really stop in and see this sister's run store. They help our local community artisans by showcasing some of their items as well.

This Archiver's is a nice location. As per most Archiver's stores, the prices can be on the steep…read moreside, and they don't offer much in the way of discounts (though on my most recent visit I did have a coupon from an email ad). A nice selection of scrapbooking products and a decent sized sale section to boot! Things at this location are arranged around the store in a slightly odd (to me) manner, but things can be found. My one problem is that the employees often seem to be more interested on chatting or stocking things to notice that there are multiple customers needing assistance/ringing up at the registers. A few "excuse me"s toward them has shown to be less than effective at times. However, while they may not be particularly attentive, they are polite and friendly. While I'd still prefer shopping at a locally owned scrapbook store, I nearly always pop into this Archiver's on drives through Appleton.

As a bonus, they offer free classes but are too far away for me to attend. (2 hour drive so only stop there when travel on business.) Staff is usual helpful. Prices on par with other craft stores but their selection is above average. If you are ever in the area, stop in.

It's a small little shop on the corner, but it is wonderful in there. There are crystals, stones, books, amulets, charms, herbs, oils, tarot, jewelry, everything you can think of. The prices are super reasonable too. The owner is really nice. He let someone bring their ginormous dog in so she didn't have to leave him outside. Anyone that loves dogs, is good in my book :) I will be back to buy some things before I go back home tomorrow :)
