A hidden gem in Saratoga Springs. My friend and I stumbled upon this store because we were shopping…read morefor souvenirs. We ended up spending more time than anticipated because of the sheer amount of quirky gifts, quality art supplies, and a lovely hat selection. Had we had more time, we would've gotten upstairs to check out the art gallery upstairs. Their postcard selection features works from local artists. Overall, many of products seemed to be of good quality, well-curated, and thought out. There's a sense of rich history in this store. I hope to come back another time.

This was a completely chance encounter as we had stopped for a coffee in Bennington and happened to…read morewalk past the store. What a veritable Aladdin's Cave of goodies it is - like the Tardis, it's much bigger on the inside than it looks. One half of the store is devoted to artist supplies - indeed, they boast of being the largest artists' supply store in Vermont. The other half is dedicated to cards, toys, bags, scarves, gifts, farden ornaments, pet things and other handy little gadgets that you didn't know you needed in your life until you saw them here. Honestly, we spend at least half an hour in here just looking around. You will be amazed at the variety of stuff they sell. Upstairs is a small but select gallery of artworks for sale, although I confess that I didn't make it past the stair landing as I got distracted by something else that I glimpsed downstairs. The owners were very chatty and friendly, especially when they found out that we were Scottish. They told us about a relative they had lost in the Lockerbie disaster, asking us if we knew the area. A poignant connection. We both emerged with lots of small gifts that will no doubt be disseminated next Christmas. Had it been earlier in our trip we'd probably have bought more stuff, but as we were heading homewards we were limited to how much more we could squeeze into our bags!

I found some pastels that can be used with water to make them look like water colors, a nice little notepad for traveling and doing art, and some fun paintbrushes. The owner is delightful. Very nice to talk with. I love her shop and I wish her much success with it! Lots of giftable art supplies here that would make wonderful birthday presents and such. For all ages. Go visit this shop and buy something. Support the small business owner. PS: She liked my dogs too. That's always a nice bonus!!

I'm happy to support this local, family-owned business, not only for the aforementioned reasons but…read morealso because their employees are both knowledgeable and helpful. I tend to come in to have prints matted and/or framed. Archival materials are the norm. The staff will also mat to ready-made frame sizes or custom. Their training also makes choosing mats easier. "Do you want bright white or eggshell white?" "Let's look at them together." Additionally, they offer to amend things that I didn't notice. A print I asked to have matted and framed was slightly curved. I was assured the print would be flattened prior to being matted and framed so it would sit more snugly. I'm sure most customers would appreciate that attention to detail. Here's to hoping this establishment continues to provide goods and services to this community for a long time to come.

This store has been around for years and always has a great selection of products. My mom loves…read moreadult coloring books and comes here to stock up on assorted color pencils. They sell the pencils individually so she can selectively restock the ones she runs out of most. Apparently, green is the most frequently used color for all the grass in landscapes so she can buy individual ones here very reasonably instead of buying a whole new package of pencils. They also have a nice selection of gift items like small pouches, reusable bags, socks, cards and assorted small art themed things. The selection of easels is extensive and includes table easels and standing easels. Tons of canvas, paints and paint brushes. Prices are reasonable. I found the staff a little overbearing (they greeted me multiple times) when I entered the store but were friendly at checkout. Highly recommend.

You can even text her directly with questions about classes, and she responds promptly and thoughtfully. Please, please check this place out--it's truly a hidden gem!

The shoppe owner is knowledgeable and helpful, pointing me in the direction of the products I was looking for and making a suggestion of a similar pen I hadn't yet tried. I was DELIGHTED to find a piece from a local artist that I had seen displayed at local gallery last fall for sale here, and snatched it up in a jiffy. Also really into the fact that this place has classes and events offered throughout the month - a lot of great education and creative community going on here!

I highly recommend going to see her if you need some help, she very friendly and will make your experience a very satisfying one! Cudos!!!

The staff are all incredibly friendly, and they are very flexible in accommodating to your needs. I took a pottery class for three weeks, and I had a blast! It was incredibly fun, and the instructor was super awesome! I really loved it. I wish I had more time to work with the instructors, but my schedule did not allow. Love the friendly atmosphere, and I got to meet so many creative people while practicing during the open studio hours. I do wish they had longer hours so it was more convenient for me schedule, but I understand this was mainly fitted around school-going children. They have a lot of cool workshops for kids, and the instructors are all very amazing from the art that I see the kids produce. There are so many different things they offer! They also allow adults a lot of resources and space to exercise their own creative projects, which I think is excellent. Everything is pretty reasonable, too! I definitely I wish I had found this place sooner! Their mascot cat is also incredibly friendly, and I adore her!
