I stayed in the Lancaster Arts Hotel and fell in love with a painting by Suk Shuglie, so I decided…read moreto google her and found her art gallery. SInce it was open, we decided to stop in and met this lovely artist. I was very happy that I was able to purchase a print of the painting I wanted. But the best part of all, was getting the opportunity to meet this amazing artist and hear her inspirations behind her artwork. The galley is very cool and most of her work is framed and ready to hang. She was extremely nice and even helped us load up the painting into the car in order to make sure it would survive the long drive back to NY. I saw several other pieces that I want to purchase once I go back. If you're into art and want to meet a truly amazing and unbelievably nice person, check this place out.

I found a cool carry bag featuring a beautiful donkey, which will make a wonderful gift for my wife. The bag even has a small painted pouch inside the bag for her to store small items. This is going to be a great bag to carry treasures she finds when shopping at flea markets. Our anniversary is coming up, but I won't be able to keep this a secret. She'll tell by the grin on my face that I have a secret. She's getting this today. The staff is very friendly, too. I could see students in a back room taking a class. There's good energy in this store. I can't wait to take my wife to Friendship Heart Gallery.

Since I "liked" their page I've been meaning to check them out. It took me awhile but finally got there last Friday night for a book reading/crafting event for kids for $5 I knew a little about the business and what they offered from Facebook but didn't really understand the concept till I was there. You can craft here a number of ways. On their walls they have tons of completed projects that can be customized just for you. Mainly the trendy graphic signs and such. For a fee they provide all the supplies, crafting space, and additional materials (glues, etc) as well as instruction. For graphic signs you pick from their enormous supply of specialty papers and they'll cut out the design on their circuit machine, provide instruction than you complete the project. You can customize the print, size, font, papers, and the backboard. You *may* even be able to bring your own design to them to see if it's something they can do. The crafting space is spacious and cozy - the perfect space to connect with friends and socialize while you craft. An added bonus is they do the clean up! While the projects on display are not for sale they are priced so you know how much it will cost to make. While I did feel the prices were the same or higher than buying the project premade from Etsy (for example) the experience and girls night out would make up for it. In addition to crafting on your own they offer workshops for specific projects ranging from graphic signs to string art - both for adults and children. The event we attended was a few days before Christmas. The children were encouraged to come in their jammies to hear a Christmas story, drink hot cocoa, than craft a wooden ornament. All for only $5! Our girls loved the experience and as grandparents we enjoyed that the painting, glue, and mess wasn't in our house! We'll definitely be back to craft some more.
