I did the mud & merlot class. Interesting name as there was no merlot lol. I'm not sure if it's BYOB but no one was drinking which is fine because I don't drink myself. I'm not sure where one would place their bottle or glass anyway. Anywho, didn't care for the teacher. She rushed through explaining what to do. Thankfully there were assistants who helped the group as needed. So you do have to come back for a separate class to glaze your pottery. I'm not sure if that was explained in the initial booking. Parking is non existent in Ellicott city. Please plan your trip well.

I am sure more Thanksgiving and Christmas items will be added after October since the fall decors are already mostly on sale for 40-50% off. They have a good selections of fabric, yarns, art supplies, crafty tools and more. Inside the store: very clean, well organized, some almost empty shelves, my guess is they are prep for new shipment arrivals. Service: friendly. I did not see many staff on the floor, but the ones I ran into were all very friendly, especially the cashiers out front were very helpful. There are a good amount of sales going on throughout the store with great pricing. Conveniently Located in a large shopping center next to Old Navy and Safeway with ample parking options. In store pre-order pickup and curbside pickup are both offered here. Definitely recommend this location for craters, artists, and any creative minds.

I wanted to give this store a fair chance- I've been twice now, so my review is a combination of…read moreboth experiences. The first thing you notice when you enter the store is that everything is hodge-podged together- the "shelves" are the type of shelves you put in your basement or shed to store boxes- definitely not what you'd use for a store display. That being said, it's new and I'm sure it's expensive to open a new store, so whatever- looks aren't everything. They have a decent amount of items in the store for the size. Good quality sketch pads and pens. My major issue is the attitude of the owner. The owner of the store took every opportunity to speak poorly of the newly closed art supply store that was next door. The owner worked there for many years and opened this current store after the other store closed. When I walked in the first time, the owner was in the midst of a conversation with a customer about how "crazy" the former store owner was, etc etc. That customer left and I was the only one in the store. Since I live in the neighborhood I asked her questions about her new store- I didn't know she had any ties to the former art store in the same shopping complex, so I got to hear how awful this other owner was, how she wanted to overcharge her for everything, etc. I came in again last week to grab a sketch pad and it was the same story- I could hardly believe it. All this effort and breath wasted to put down a business that doesn't even exist anymore. I was so off-put by it, that I didn't even buy the sketchpad. As a business owner in Frederick myself, I think it's pretty easy to assume that we should all play by rule #1: do not speak ill of others when representing your business. Period. I don't know the history between the two women, but that doesn't matter to me- it's just bad business to speak poorly of others. She could have taken the opportunity to explain how she was going to do things differently, what she will carry and her hopes for the store, etc etc- instead she decided to take the low road and insult a company that is out of business and of no threat to her store. While there aren't too many places in town to purchase artist supplies from an independent dealer, I won't be shopping here again.

Art Depot has a decent selection for brushes, paint, pencils, markers, canvas and paper. Prices were slightly more than chains but in line with other independent art stores. Interestingly, an employee (owner?) was very chatty and overheard him mention he had some canvas that was shit and he discounted it and will no longer sell it. He had a lot of back story for a customer who wasn't even buying canvas. Maybe he didn't know and wanted to give the person a heads up before they bought crap canvas. Or maybe he thought the customer would know it was crap canvas and he wanted to preempt negative questioning. Anyway, completely recommend this store.

We were a group of 14 and even though their spaces only held 12, they still managed to accommodate us. I thought this would just be stenciling, but as it turns out there's a lot more to it. I think I heard a couple of times, "crafting is hard!" from my teammates. We walked in and were greeted by Jen. The wood they use has such a neat story and my particular "canvas" came from Baltimore and they even had the street it came from. We went upstairs and Whitney took over helping us. We were allowed to bring our own beer/wine and Whitney even found us an Alexa to play music while we did our crafting. Your paint color choices are painted on a wall so you can see how they dry, which was very helpful. Ooo, they even found our company logo and drew it on a sign to welcome us! The whole experience was worth it. We laughed, we got frustrated, and we made some pretty cool art to be proud of. I would definitely recommend reclaimed to anyone looking for some fun team building.
