I love this shop and Nomita! She has done two high profile homes for me and hit it out of the park…read morewith both of them! The first one was for a national sustainability and design conference in 2014. Her professionalism was on full display as she helped coordinate items from across the nation with my client's and donors. Her concept for the home focused on clean simple design that highlighted not only the sponsors but local New Orleans artist. The second home she did was a tiny house where she worked closely with me and my client two showcase the homeowners style via colors and texture as well as our commitment to healthy and sustainable furniture. I would trust Nomita with my house anytime and you should too! :-)

I hired Nomita for a paint color consultation, after seeing a page on Spruce's web site advertising…read morethis service (see uploaded screenshot for details). I verified the service, and price with her, in the presence of two employees, and a date was set for 5 weeks later. One day before the appointment Nomita stated that she wouldn't honor the agreed upon (and advertised) price of $200, she now wanted $300. She demanded to know where I'd seen the price, so I sent her a link to her page. She claimed, in a dizzying series of defensive emails, the web page in question was either outdated, existed only in a "black hole," hadn't existed for 6 years, was from 2013, or never existed at all. She didn't seem sure. In reality, it was 2 clicks from her home page up until that day, when she had it removed. I realized this wasn't someone I could work with, at any price. When she realized there was no convincing defense for jacking up the price at the last minute, she wrote this: "You are taking advantage of me as a minority woman owned business!" As yet, I've no clue what that refers to. So it's pretty offensive, not just to me, but to anyone who's been legitimately affected that way. Not very impressive. Neither is the "I looked up how to respond to negative reviews on the Internet" non-response below.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted movement inside the shop so late on a Saturday night in…read moreAlgiers. I was at the window peering inside, promising myself that I'd return during business hours. Then I saw the twirl of two knitting needles and noticed a person was holding them, working on their own project. To my shock, the sign on the door listed hours until 11 pm. I saw the neon "OPEN" sign alit, but I assumed that someone forgot to turn it off. When you step inside you feel like you've entered a cozy new dimension. The owner, Ellie, gave me a tour of the magical space. I got to see the custom coffin where they dry their hand dyed yarn, the knitting group room where you can come in and work on creative projects with others or hop onto the Google meet rooms and join them virtually. Ellie also offers a FREE knitting class. There's also a larger selection of yarn than you'd think from the small storefront. Inside you'll find more than one room of assorted yarn. I walked away from what felt like a sanctuary with a bounty of beautiful heavyweight acrylic that I'm using to make pompoms. In this time of endless subscriptions and fewer third spaces, it's touching to see a business foster community the way that YarNOLA is doing. I can't wait to go back.

Decided to check this place out after looking for local yarn stores and I adored it!…read more Small location but big selection. They have a unique selection of hand dyed yarn from various dyers around the country and their own hand dyed yarn (dyed in shop!) as well as a large selection of colors and materials of imported yarn. How do I know all of this? The owner gave me a tour of the whole place and told me about each of the dyers she sells for. It was amazing! She also listened to what my upcoming project was and provided suggestions of yarns for me! The hand dyed yarns aren't cheap, but they are 100% worth the cost, especially with many of them having a percentage of the purchase going to a cause. They are pretty comparable to the cost of most hand dyed yarns I've seen. The imported yarn is a great price! Cheaper than a lot of other places and I was a big fan of the ones I bought. They also have some awesome handmade acrylic crochet hooks in fun colors! Highly recommend, especially if you are looking for an alternative to big box craft stores.

Ms. Anna's process of trying the garment on and measuring/pinning is super quick and efficient. She told me that the dress would be ready in 2 days (and even accommodated me as a squeeze-in client because she and her family were gearing up to travel back home for a couple of weeks in 3 days). I was very grateful! She gave me a prompt call to confirm that the dress was ready, and I scooped it up and loved the length. She even steamed the dress for me (because as with most online orders, it arrived in a bag super wrinkled). I got so many compliments on the dress, and I believe the petite-girl alteration was the perfect touch for my look!

Anna works alone due to wanting things to be perfect she rather do it herself. When I dropped off my dress she hadn't had a day off in the last 3 weeks. Hopefully now she can get some rest in .. definitely earned a forever customer here .
