Craftland is a mix of card shop, gift store and souvenir store. The staff is pleasant and very helpful if you need their help. The stuff is all colorful and well laid out, so when I walk in the store, it feels bright and cheerful. This last time I got some t-shirts for my nieces...they have lots of colors, patterns, logos, designs and sizes. You can fell the quality of the fabric when you grab them, not the thin cheap ones that you get like in the streets of New York...LOL..

It's a small shop, but it was very cute. They had all kinds of stationary supplies. I have a TN regular and passport so I wanted to get some refills, they also had some hobonichi notebooks and covers as well. They had a bunch of different kinds of pens, washi tapes, stickers, stencils, etc... definitely worth a stop. I also got a TWSBI fountain pen that I wanted and they had it there! Was so happy about that. Got ink for my new pen, they had different brands and colors of ink as well. The employee in the shop was really nice and helpful.

First, I love that they have free non perishable goods outside for people to help themselves as they need it. The shop inside is very cute, they have a diverse selection of books inside a cozy space. I liked how it was organized, enjoyed featuring of local artists work, including cards and bookmarks. Prices were what you can expect from a smaller book store, nothing incredibly expensive and overall a good deal. They also had a pile of books by the door that were completely free, which I thought was a great idea. Definitely a great place to stop by if you're looking for a new read!

Wanted me to go thru a process of signing an agreement that they had refunded me said amount, ect. THEN! When the 2 packs arrive, they are the wrong color. Dave, I guess the owner, was a huge prick and told me pretty much to get lost and it was out of his control, even though after my claim, they have sense made changes to the listing to make it say its NOT THE COLOR IN THE PICTURE LISTED ON THE WEBSITE! So, all in all, I paid 300+ to have to turn around and $58.20 to ship them back for a refund. Absolutely AVOID this company. ZERO CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

There's also a section in the back that has children's clothing and other items, and what looked like a sewing station for personalization of any number of items or even tailoring. This will become one of my go-to spots for picking up a lovely gift for a friend or even for myself! Only thing is, no parking means circling Wayland Square or paying for one of the nearby lots.
