I was delighted to see that every Saturday they have an artist set up a workshop where you can learn about their pieces, work alongside them and even purchase some artwork.

We went as a birthday party of 4 and had made reservations ahead of time. There are signs in the…read morewindow and throughout the store stating they do special events such as birthdays, bachelorette parties etc. However, when we arrived you couldn't tell our table from anyone else's. Nothing was set up special for our party. This left me wondering what exactly do they do for parties? The selection of items was lacking. Many items were down to their last one. The paint selection was vast and plentiful. The brushes in the tables only included one brush of each size. If you wanted to do small, detailed work and someone else had the small brush you were out of luck. The bathroom didn't have a light and you had to use a flashlight in order to see where you were going. You could still see how filthy it was though. Cobwebs and dirt filled the corners. I didn't want to touch anything. In fact, the whole place was filthy. No one wore masks except our party. *Covid protocols were not enforced at all.* Restaurants have stricter mask wearing policies then they do! They started cleaning up 30 minutes before closing and the lady working had a loud conversation with another person about how she would "be in trouble if she was even 5 minutes late" so that we would be able to hear her. She and another person kept coming to our table asking if we were done with our paints yet. We felt rushed and disrespected. The passive aggressive attitude wasn't necessary. We drove over two hours to come to this little business that doesn't take credit cards and treats people poorly. Edit: January 12, 2021 -We are definitely getting the run around. Finally was able to get through and was told to call back. Called back and was told "I don't know anything about that call back." Called back and was told must call back. Looks like they are keeping our pieces out of spite over review. Three stars now down to one. Edit: February 7, 2021- Spoke with Kim, the owner. We should be getting our pieces soon. They are going to the post office tomorrow. She had been unaware of Stacey's treatment of us and has apologized profusely. I believe her to be sincere and very genuine.

I've been going here since they first opened, and my son has graduated from playing with the toys in the fully stocked and very convenient "kids area", to looking at chapter books while I browse the rare and obscure selections from social sciences, geography, history, you name it. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the amazing artwork and cool gifts and games for sale as well. A lot of the art is locally made. It's a funky store, and absolute opposite of Amazon. Go here.

Not knowing what any of the stuff was worth or what to do with it we headed to a local jewelry store that we do business with, they are not into buying but gave an idea of what the items were worth and what we could expect to be offered. Next step was looking on line and reviews to find a place to sell the stuff. We visited a couple of highly rated places and got several offers. Next stop was Sterling Rare Coin. What a find! We were offered what we were told we could expect on every item and more on some. There are some people you meet and instantly can tell that they are honest without an BS.
