I stopped here yesterday afternoon and the lady at the counter was wonderful.

It's masculine but women can wear it too and I love it. The store has a wonderful collection of jacquard French linens, olive oil soaps, lavender, French dishware - so much for a Francophile to choose from. Wonderful selection and cute store!

Incredibly cute little boutique with a very tight focus: French country styling. I went in today…read moreand it was really nice to go into such a bright and fresh place on such a dreary and cold day. Pretty much all items are imported from France or Italy and appear to be high quality. La Prov has a lovely selection of brocade linens for the table, and some gorgeous clear glassware and serving dishes decorated with raised bees and dragonflies I've been admiring. They also have an extensive selection of fine soaps from France, and candles. Much in the way of home decor with a vintage flair, including reproduction advertising posters (last year, I gave one to a friend that featured seven saucy topless redheaded mermaids swimming around a bottle of seltzer water). Great for gift items, she's got a small group of music CDs featuring Edith Piaf, assortments of French or Italian music from the 40s and 50s, as well as some servingware and kitchen staples such as Fleur de Sel and Herbes de Provence. The owner is very sweet as well! Worth a stop if you are in the area.

Half of the shop is full of paper goods and other gift-type things: cool totes, pretty calendars and journals, letterpressed greeting cards. If you're in town for the day and forgot your Moleskine, you can grab yet another here. The other half of the shop is full of really cool, non mass-market toys. Small producers and European makers offer a really unique selection of toys of all sizes for babies and kids. The shop is well-thought out and comfortable to visit and completely dangerous if you happen to have a thing for paper goods, like me!

Some things I loved in no particular order: 1. Wendy was helpful and responsive during the planning/booking process. 2. She was professional, prepared, and on time. 3. The lesson and materials were of high quality. Wendy demonstrated value with her advice and recommendations, offering us insights into how we could make our own candles without the professional equipment, on a lower budget, or just getting creative with different vessels etc. All the scents she brought with her (there were soooo many and she'd have even more if we went into the studio!) smelled AMAZING and true to what they were supposed to smell like. 4. The display and attention to detail were just phenomenal. Check out the pictures! We decorated the space for the party of course and the setup really enhanced the vibe we were going for! So beautiful and classy! 5. Wendy is just a really cool person! It was a pleasure working with her as well as just chatting and laughing with her during the craft. The whole group (8 of us) had nothing but praise afterwards. The highest recommendations for this wonderful local business! I definitely want to visit the studio and will be using Create & Escape again for future events, and you should too!

My partner and I had a lovely date night at Clay Dreaming!! We had a reservation and were welcomed…read morein as soon as we arrived. The employees showed us around and made sure we knew where everything was and how to paint our pottery. There was a wide range of items to paint, so there's something for everyone's interests and budget. There was also a wide range of colors and paint brushes. I've done pottery painting a few times and I typically feel a little let down when I get the finished piece back... but not this time! Clay dreaming's instructions and tips for painting helped my piece to turn out just how I wanted it. Thank you to clay dreaming and I recommend this place for a wonderful date night!

We're in the area for the summer so we've been looking for things to do. We were so glad we found…read morethis place! Everyone was very friendly. The woman that assisted us was super thorough and helpful. She gave us tips and recommendations and explained everything perfectly, she even saved my daughter's piece when she "ruined" it (she needs a promotion lol). We tried the clay painting & there was a wide variety of ready made pottery pieces to choose from. I chose a mermaid mug, my daughter chose a cute character mug and my son chose a cute trophy vase/mug? There were tons of paint colors to choose from as well as all the painting accessories (brushes, stencils, sponges, etc). We were reminded that we can't take the pieces home right away since they'll have to go in the kiln but they'll call/text in 7-10 days for pickup. The studio was very clean, organized and spacious. It was also very affordable, they charge $5 per person for the first hour and then $2.50 each additional hour per person and you just buy the ceramic pieces that range from $20 and up. Highly recommend for a fun time with family and friends.
