    Due to the storm, this place was closed when we went there and completely empty looked like a nice shot, but no longer there.

    We have been trying to get here to check out this little local book shop. I first heard of them…read morefrom a favorite author of mine. She writes mystery books and the character lives on the island. Love it! She was doing a book signing and I was not going to be able to go. I was able to order a book from them and have the author sign it. That was about 2 years ago and we have been fans ever since. They were so incredibly polite and helpful. We missed coming here last year because of their hours. It is located on an island so they are not open super late. This is a cute little bookstore with different books, little trinkets and souvenirs to purchase. From my understanding they also do many events with different authors. We visited and were actually able to speak with the owner. She was so sweet, actually straightening from a previous nights event. She talked to us for a bit, got to know us and recommended us to her favorite authors. We wanted local books or books written about Sanibel and Captiva. She only had a few but of course we were able to find some we liked. I would highly recommend stopping here if you need a book while on vacation. If I lived in this area, this would be my local shopping place for books. It is always better to buy local. My only reason for a 4 is there was not a huge selection of local books and the ones she did have, she did not have the whole series. There was pretty much one of each as well, so my sister and I could not each get one. But again, I understand, its a small island. I just wish there was more and more copies. Overall though, we will stop in each year and check it out, see what's new and look for any treasures we can find. The fact that they are independent and do not charge more for a book is also really great. Its a good value for us to buy from a local shop as opposed to a mass retailer. You should definitely check it out.

    We enjoyed this unique little store and the proprietor was fun to talk to…read more I only give it four stars, because, although they had handicap parking and a ramp onto the sidewalk, I was not able to enter the store without my daughter's help, because there was a step.

    We dropped off 2 large custom art pieces in 2021 to be framed and delivered to our condo at Sundial…read moreto be hung. We never received the framed art, nor did we receive any receipt of delivery. These were very expensive custom pieces, plus we paid them in advance, over $600 for the framing job. Then the hurricane happened and the island was tore up. We had tried to call them several times, and never heard back... so we gave them some grace understanding that they were dealing with their own hurricane circumstances. We decided to go talk to them in person once we finally made our way back to Sanibel, which was this week. This has been the first year our condo has been inhabitable. We made sure to make time to come check in to find out what had happened to our art,and instead of being open to have a reasonable conversation he immediately yelled "you're not welcome here" and proceeded to get pissed off/ irate and start aggressively yelling In both of our faces. We said please sir all we would like is proof of a receipt, a signature, or literally anything that proves delivery- and we asked how he planned to make this right, and he said since it must have already delivered, we will have to take his word for it because "I usually do what I say I'm going to do." Well, we never received it, and after trying to have a reasonable conversation with him, it is clear that we need to accept that are artwork is permanently gone, And they permanently kept our $600. Then he told us he always sends a text post-delivery, yet was unable to produce said text. He yelled "You are not welcome here!" and followed us to our car, recording us as we were trying to leave. If you aren't a racist you wouldn't have been threatened by our presence. You have poor work ethic, rude, dishonest, wildly aggressive, unable to have a reasonable conversation (unless that's only with brown people.) *Just because my husband has brown skin does not mean he threatened you. We did promise to post an honest review. That was not a threat, sir. *They continue to claim that Sundial received the artwork but its verified that there is no receipt of delivery. Sir, if you're so confident then I would encourage you to go over to Sundial and talk to Cara yourself. Being that she manages all the deliveries for all the units.. You see, sir, you stuttered and fumbled with your words In regards to the whereabouts of our paid-for/ framed artwork, she did not. In fact she was 100% confident that these pictures were never delivered. Call her up yourself, go for it., I would encourage you. And at the end of the day it's your word against hers. She has been the manager who has serviced our ENTIRE REMODEL and EVERY SINGLE DELIVERY.. (We received many deliveries!!!!) In very plain English, to my face, she assured me that 2 GIANT LARGE custom art pieces from Sanibel Art and Framing were never delivered to Sundial. And maybe you're not a racist, maybe you're just a theif? Really hard to say because I didn't expect to get yelled at when we came to find out what happened to our art. Maybe you sold it, lost it, or got an insurance payout for it. And you definitely took advantage and left us with no receipt or anything. Usually honest business owners don't yell at their customers, That was my first clue that you are a scoundrel, or you hate dark skin people, because we never threatened you.. You just need to embellish your story because once people found out we never threatened you, Then maybe they'll question why did you feel so threatened by us. Since you're deliveries to Sundial don't seem to work out, we have made sure Sundial is aware of what you've done to us, So hopefully they'll be leary of trusting you again after that. I already talked to the officer, sir. It's weird how one my husband told you they've been at Sanibel for 50 years you didn't believe him. He Is 52 in his parents got it when he was a baby, they've been here that long. I don't know why you laughed at him when he said that, was that not a super racist? It sure seemed and felt like it. Normally I would expect a business owner to try to help us figure it out and really pinpoint exactly where and when it was delivered so hopefully we could try to find it. But you didn't try to help us at all you just told us to go away and call the cops.

    Looking for a great group activity, date fun or time with friends! The Bent Brush is a local gem…read morewhere you can spend quality time making personalized quality items! Our group of 6 was met by spunky Paulette who gave us a complete and thorough explanation on how The Bent Brush operates. After washing our hands FIRST (don't want to smudge the ceramics ) we spent time looking at all the fun ceramics to choose for painting. There are various sizes, shapes and specimens to choose from with a variety of paints, brushes and tools to use as your creative mind chooses. I will be specific and say, take your time! There is no rushing here and you are encouraged to be as creative as possible. The staff is so friendly and helpful; so don't be afraid to ask for assistance! Plus, they have so many art tools that can enhance your experience you'll never know what can aide you in your next "Van-Gough" piece Our group had a great time, singing to the awesome 80's music playing in the background and painting in this super cheerful atmosphere. Yes, we will be back!

    Such a cool place. I have been a few times with my humans…read more Found this a very enjoyable way to spend the afternoon. So much fun that the time gets away from you. This last time my humans made a spider, an alien and a narwal, and a dog treat jar!! I helped with that one!!! The staff is very helpful and even gave some tips on how to write my name on the jar. They checked on us often and got us everything we needed. One of my humans is not good in art but loves this experience and actually has made some cool things. There was also some kind of event there and everyone in the birthday party had so much fun. A great way to spend a few to several hours making cool things and gifts!! Highly recommend this one!! 5 stars and can't wait until the next one!!! Bodhi Approved! #BodhiFin
