Dear owners of Mountain Threads - I came from Greensboro to…read morevisit your shop. I had the directions and list of materials for a project and wanted to purchase high-quality rope cording. So I approached a very glittery young woman with her bosom about to fall out of her red dress by saying, "I have a project materials list that calls for 100 feet of clothesline cord." She directed me to purchase this at a WalMart. Wow. Isn't selling various sizes of cord what your business is all about? She also told me that clothesline type cording cost $1/foot so I would pay $100 for cording if I purchased it at Mountain Threads. No - it costs $1 per yard. The owner/artisan seated behind a sewing machine in the back room was being monopolized by one female (customer? just curious?) and no one could break into that Q&A/tutorial without being rude. So, basically, there was no one in-the-know available. The store is cute. The staff is friendly (maybe too friendly with people who will monopolize you). The location on Main St is easy to find but beware that parking in Blowing Rock can be very difficult in the "high seasons". The selection of fabrics, machine needles, and cording is strong. You just have to get past the not so well informed staff member in the front room.

I came to this jewelry store two years ago, and thought they had beautifully crafted jewelry. While…read moremany of the pieces are very expensive (more than $2,000), you can find other jewelry that is under this amount. I found a very different and striking necklace out of metal by an artist, and also purchased a pendant of large, inlaid stones. Their offerings are artistic, with an emphasis on natural materials that seem to come from the mountains surrounding their building. It adjoins an art gallery, and this is a perfect companion for their space.

She has the talent of making someone looking for a $24 pair of earrings feel as important as the one shopping for a custom crafted creation valued in the thousands. And being a good retailer, she keeps a good selection of affordable little pick-up items; and she takes as much care wrapping it as she does the custom creations. She has a true passion for her work -- and it shows in the creativity of her designs. If you're looking for an artisan gift, stop by and meet the lady who makes things happen for you! We've shopped with Susan every summer for close to 30 years -- and we plan our travel around visiting her shop at least once; and you usually see a second item that gets under your skin, and you know you must go back and get it before leaving, or you will regret it for the rest of your life! Shop, browse, enjoy !!!

We ended up spending around 90 minutes here, most of it was mining for gems then learning about what we found from Du Bois. His energy and love of rocks was something you don't see every day. We can't wait to come back. Also, ironically, we first stopped at Sugar Creek gem mine in Banner Elk, but everyone was packed in a small room and their payment system went down when we arrived. So we went down the road to the Greater Foscoe mine and had one of our best experiences in the mountains. Highly recommend it.

The staff was incredible we love Dabois, Mike, Logan, and the gemcutter Zack were all fantastic. Zack cut a tourmaline and set it in gold to replace the pendant I had lost. It was so beautiful. He also made a set of citrine consisting of oval cut stones for earrings, ring and pendant. Gorgeous. My husband got a ring with 3 stones. My daughter got a ring of rose quartz, a Mexican opal pendant and our granddaughter got an emerald ring. And they were done in 24 hours!!
