We visited here on yesterday for a birthday party and this place is SO cute! I had never heard of…read moreit before but it's a great idea and an artist dream. They offer candle making, date nights painting and many more options. My favorite was they offered a full bar. The splatter room was my kiddos favorite. The owner was very nice and she was very hands on and ensuring everything went smoothly. We are glad to have discovered a new spot.

I booked a visit to do the candle making activity for my daughter (and her two friends) for her…read morebirthday. They called me back even though I didn't leave a message. I feel like most businesses don't make the extra effort to do that anymore. The process was fun for the girls and they thoroughly enjoyed it! Even had some down time while waiting for them to set. I do wish there was more variety of different scents (light/fresh, floral, woodsy, etc) to choose from. But it was an overall good experience.

This shop was really unique .... in a good way!…read more Really impressed with the selection they had on hand. Unique stuff, that you aren't going to find at other stores (musical instruments - we had never seen before, nick knacks for decorating for a large variety of interest types), just all in all some really cool stuff. Tons of wax melts and candles if you are into those types of things. Wax melts had a bunch of scents I had never seen anywhere else before. Prices throughout the store seemed to be fair and the staff were all really friendly and helpful. We actually ended up getting a bunch of Christmas presents, so thanks Bleu River for that. If you're in the area, this place would be worth taking a few minutes to check out.

Our Spice Bar is your opportunity to taste flavors from around the world. The fantastic selection of unique gift items includes hand crafted rustic home decor, ultra glam, hand poured candles, local artwork, homemade jams, hand crafted knives, kitchen items, and so much more!

I love this store. It's fun, colorful and creative. The poster art of our beloved city of…read moreBirmingham is cool. T-shirts and nicknacks bearing the Birmingham, Alabama name are plentiful. The people working there are always nice and helpful. Prices are a bit high, but the store is in a very popular area, so I imagine rent ain't cheap. You should drop in to cool off after shopping in the farmers market. Makes for a great day out!

I've been digging Yellowhammer Creative's neato Bham-love designs, and therefore I was stoked to…read morepay a visit to their Yellowhammer Print Shop in Pizitz Food Hall. Yellowhammer's main items are t-shirts and posters and you'll find many at this store, along with other goodies such as postcards, bags, koozies, dishcloths, and stuff from other makers, like soaps. I bought a few gifts for friends. Fab local stuff!

Pam's Crafts always draws me in the spring/ summer for her flowers. She gets beautiful plants in at…read moreamazing prices! Subsequently, they fly off the shelves ... but don't worry she gets several trucks a week, at least this time of year. I was lucky to be there when the truck arrived. Not only did I have first pick, there was definitely plenty of everything! I wanted one or two of each! Inside, I always have to get a couple of the scented wax (like scentsy) because they smell amazing! They are good quality and last as long as the scentsy brand ones. There are so many options! I usually get several $1 samples because I can cut them into 4 pieces (or more for the wall plug warmers) and can choose more scents at once! Favorite is Muscadine Vinyard, and Bora Bora was my second favorite. She also has scent warmers $10 small wall socket type and $20 large size. I noted she does embroidery and vinyl, she had some cute yeti-style tumblers and lots of shirts, etc in stock. She also does silk flower arrangement. Oh! And she has some jewelry and it is all super cute, good prices too. Add Pam's Crafts on Facebook to keep up with all the flower shipments - and you can call ahead to see what she has in stock or when the next truck is coming to be sure you don't leave empty handed! I included some Facebook post screen shots for reference.

Such a wonderful place! There is so much yarn to choose from, including a lovely batch of locally…read moremade and colored skeins. I picked up some Harp and Dragon and can't wait to find the perfect project to use it for! It's a place you can go and hang out and do some crocheting or knitting, have a cup of tea, and simply relax with good company. I was only there briefly with my husband, but I'm already excited to go back and spend more time. It is a wonderful local place that adds even more charm to the small area. One day (sooner than later!) I want to return for an extended visit and get to know it better. The service is warm and attentive, and the quality for the value is on point.

Too much good stuff to list here. I purchased a summer weight yarn to knit a summer tank top. A free pattern is available and Pat's expert tips have given me a good start.

That being said- there wasn't any pottery design or item in the shop that I hadn't seen some version in other shops. I love pottery, I miss throwing my own pottery- so until I have my own wheel and kiln, I buy from other artists. I picked up a lovely bowl today and will have to take a picture of the bowl to share. I did circle the room 3x before I finally spotted my purchase. I found gorgeous plates I loved, platters, mugs... you name it. But nothing had really struck me until I found the bowl with a gorgeous spiral inside. This is art- and priced as such. People underestimate how much time, labor and love going into handmade pottery. Not to mention pieces that break, flop on the wheel and random mess ups with glaze. Appreciate the artistry.
