The one downside is that the line in the fabric room can get long and it's first come first served, so when I just needed a roll of ribbon I had to stand behind 15 people who needed fabric cut. That was tedious. They don't have as many different throws as some of the other places, but this is a good place to come to fill in the gaps.

The girl behind the counter was rude as H3ll. Like girl, I did not make you work here. She kept trying to sell me a different item than what I wanted.

There were several pieces posted on the instagram as well well as Etsy shop that ai was interested in. The worker for one was very dismissive and acted like I couldn't have been wasting their time more. They told me some of the stuff was in the back and that they weren't sure if they were still available. They then got a call from the actual store owner Claudia who I asked if she knew where these items were. I described the garments as listed and was then put on the phone with her. She was also quite disrespectful and had me on the phone with her for 5 minutes talking in circles on why she wasn't sure of her own inventory. I will not be back, I have unfollowed the account on instagram, and I left upset and feeling heavily disrespected. I am a queer man by the way.

Airship Isabella just might be one of the best kept secrets in New Orleans…read more The store front itself isn't much. Although, you can stop in 12-8 on most days, you are going to really see what these folks have to offer on their website. This is a group made up of talented individuals who make everything from jewelry to costume pieces to leather iPad cases. Their specialty is "steam punk" style things, but they are all so talented you can contact any of the artists to make custom pieces. I was impressed by the detail in a lot of the work that these folks make and everyone is super nice and friendly. Whatever you have in mind, one of the artists at ASI is sure to be able to bring it to life, so check out their website and don't hesitate to email them or stop into their store front in order to make your artistic vision come to life.
