Eric and Robert are so fun and friendly, very no-BS guys who tell it to you straight. They made the class super fun and we were always laughing. Given the time of year, there were only 3 of us in class so it was nearly 1-on-1 instruction. I learned so much! I came back the next day to pick up my mirror and was stunned at how beautiful it came out! Y'all got me into a new hobby! Thank you for such an awesome class!

Bottom Line: Large store full of locally made arts and crafts with some vintage items and other…read moregood finds sprinkled throughout. I stumbled upon Absolutely Outer Banks a handful of years ago and I was impressed with the selection of locally made arts and crafts. Ever since, this is my go to spot for legitimate and tasteful Outer Banks souvenirs. In addition to locally made items they also have some vintage items and even some new items for sale. One item that this store specializes in is really cool resin windows that are unique and exude happiness. Absolutely Outer Banks has artwork in all mediums and in all price points. They have jewelry, wood signs, candles, prints, glass work, textiles, metal work, etc.  On my most recent visit I enjoyed looking at a vintage pin ball machine and eyeing up the beautiful array of Fiestaware. There is plenty of opportunity for ooohhhing and ahhhing.  The owner is super friendly so that adds to the overall great experience. Absolutely Outer Banks is centrally located in Kitty Hawk in the former spot of a bank.

Growing up, it was my family's tradition to get an old time photo while we were at the beach. I…read morewanted to relive the good times we had so I convinced my brother and sister to get our photo taken before heading home. We arrived at lunchtime and there was a family ahead of us. It took a while before they changed, posed, chose photos, and payed. My group agreed there should have been a second person working to assist with the flow of multiple groups. The man working was fun and knowledgeable about photography during different time periods. For example, he suggested we order a "colorized" photo for the pirate theme since pirates didn't want their picture taken and most depictions of pirates are paintings. When it was time to pay, I wasn't expecting the $50 price tag for one 8X10", but other than that and the wait it was a fun experience.

My fiancé and her 2 girls treated me to a photo shoot here and not only did we have a great time taking the pictures but for under a hundred bucks we got several shots taken in different poses and several printed photos and we all had a great time. If you want an experience worth paying for and a memory that will last a lifetime, this is the place to get it!
