this place is awesome. my friend drove by it on day and went in and then insisted i had to come…read morelook. they do have some stuff for cheap and some stuff would cost less at a chain or warehouse, but whatever, just get it all here because you'll come out ahead at the end. i did get some buttons for cheap and dirt cheap glitter. there was also some stuff i would never use that was amazing to look at - doll body parts and decorative things and such. (i sew a lot but am not big on crafting so some of it was out of my realm of understanding.) the ribbon, lace, or tulle by the yard was on the pricier side. they also have some random little toys that are like fifteen cents. and beads. there are so so many beads here, it made me wish i did bead crafts of some sort. also, they give you a little gift when they ring you up. i got a diy lace snowball ornament. it's hard to describe but you kind of feel like you tried to go back in time, but the machine took you just a bit too far. but the stuff is still relevant to your interests, but slightly off enough that you're not going to buy everything. just go check it out. it's a lot of fun and i'll definitely be back.

Needed some art supplies and was recommended to come here by a friend. They seem to have everything…read moreyou could possibly need for drawing, painting, clay etc. There was always someone available for questions and everyone working there was incredibly friendly.

I love Blick in general. I used to work down the street from a location in Chicago that was TWO…read moreFLOORS and I could spend hours in there. It was my favorite place to brows. Now, this Blick isn't two floors, in fact their one floor is only a fraction of that other store, but not every location can be that stacked. It's a smaller footprint but they pack a lot in. You don't usually get to see ceramic glazes and underglazes in arts & craft stores but they carry some which made me really happy as I was able to find a few of the underglazes I had been looking for. They also carry the Mayco brand (which no other ceramics specialty shops in the area I've been to carry) and I was able to find a few of their colors that I had had on my wish list. They have a ton of brushes, canvas, paints, pencils, solvents, etc, etc. All at various price points, so no matter what your background is, professional artist or novice, you can find something to either get you started or help you hone your craft. In addition to the art supplies they do have a small section of some miscellaneous gifty-type things which are also fun to browse (many of which would make great stocking stuffers). My last visit I got a keychain tape measure and I can't tell you how often I use that thing. Best couple of bucks I've ever spent! The other thing worth noting is that they do offer a "buy online pick up in the store" option which is great if you're in a hurry. If they don't have what you're looking for in shop they can find it for you in their online store. I've searched for some really random stuff over the years and I've always at least been able to find it on their website. Staff here is very nice and helpful. I love the mural on the wall outside, too. Fitting for such a great art store.

This older gentleman, (with the same tommy hilferger button up i own lol ) seen me at the frame service counter at roughly 4:30pm xmas eve, and this man was already buffing the floors when he seen my canvas on the counter and informed me there was nothing they could do.. i think he seen the heartbreak in my eyes and seen the portrait of my daughter that i been painting for 2 months, and told me what he could do giving the resources available.
