Part bookstore, part yarn shop, with a small vintage shop on the side…read more They don't have a lot of yarn but the stuff they have is natural fibers and often hand spun. They support crochet, Tunisian crochet, and knitting. They have classes and the person working there was friendly and knowledgeable. Prices were a bit high but reasonable given the quality of the goods offered and the fact that, as a crocheted, I felt welcome. I'm 54 and have been crocheting and knitting since childhood. This is the first time I've ever felt welcome in a local yarn store as someone who prefer crochets.

Okay, maybe my review is a little biased because I don't know of many other home goods craft stores…read morequite like Michaels -- but I just can't get past some of these prices. $80 for a reef ornament? If it were handmade, I could understand, but for a plastic one? That's a hard pass. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Everything from candles to basic stationery items you could grab at Walmart is marked up to a level that feels unnecessary. Now, to be fair, they do have some great sales -- and when I say great, I mean really great. But you shouldn't have to wait for a sale just to feel like you're not paying an arm and a leg for a craft project. On the plus side, the staff is friendly and helpful. They have the kind of customer service I appreciate -- where someone actually walks you to what you're looking for instead of just pointing in a general direction and disappearing. That said, the front desk and self-checkout area are another story. I stood at the self-checkout for a solid five minutes waiting for anyone to come by and help with a screen issue so I could remove an item. No one ever came, so I eventually gave up and checked out at another register. Overall, it's a nice store with good selection and solid staff, but I'll be honest -- next time I come, I'll be coming for the sales, not the sticker prices. It's way too easy to walk out broke after buying just a few things.

Most checkouts you can enter your loyalty number and start scanning. I feel tech-savvy but the self-checkout was just confusing. It's not clear which ones are open. You can't see the checkout situation until you're next in line to checkout. At one point the lone cashier started scolding the CUSTOMERS for not using self-checkout and told US the line was so long it didn't make sense and WE had to do something about it. Excuse me? I don't work here, find someone who DOES to do something about this long line. How about order online and have it delivered? Or better yet... just order from anywhere online.

Ahhh....the illustrious store of teacher junk.

Having frequented other School Box stores in the Atlanta area, this School Box did not seem as bright and cheery as the others. However, it did not divert me from my hunt of cute books, borders, and manipulatives. Word to the wise: some of the materials here are not large enough for a class set. $16.99 for a 100-piece set of snap cubes? C'mon... This is when you need to be smart about your purchases. Some things are actually valuable to your classroom for a reasonable prices. Others are more of a capitalization on the cute-teacher factor. All in all, this location has a good selection, but not as "HOO-RAY!" as other School Box locations seem. Gets the job done.

Last December I decided to (finally) get some artwork framed so I checked out Toco Hills. They have…read morea huge collection of frames, matting, and fillets so it took me a while to decide on everything but they were patient and let me mull over my options while also providing some suggestions and recommendations. After deciding I went ahead and paid in full. They do allow you to pay a deposit instead. At the time of my order I was told one of the frames I selected was out of stock. It was coming from a manufacturer in Italy and they didn't have an ETA for when it would be back in stock but they guessed it could be 1-2 months. I had painstakingly lol gone through their collection so I decided to wait because I wasn't in a rush to get them. March came though and I hadn't heard anything so I called for an update. It would have been nice if they had reached out to me when they realized it was past the two month mark. I understand it feels uneventful to provide a "there's no update" update but I like being kept in the loop regardless of what the status is. After that call, they were more proactive in reaching out to me to let me know they were still waiting for it to arrive which I appreciated. When the frame finally arrived, I was really pleased with how both of my pieces came out. Their prices are expensive but it's a local, specialty shop and you only get things framed once so you may as well invest in something you'll like. Overall, I'd recommend checking them out.

I've found my new locally owned framing shop and now so have you! I will happily make the 30-minute drive past other options because this experience was far superior.
