Always very little inventory! They show alot on display, but they are out of most of what they…read moreshow. This is the second time we've been here and experienced the same thing the first time. Once you're there you feel the need to pick something. But its an expensive activity so next time I will definitely choose one of the other 2 studios in Frederick that do the same thing. I like this place, too bad they don't stock up.

He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Kids can see geodes cracked in shop (after they buy them, of course!) and there's always a nice selection of natural specimens at all price points.

This is a wonderful shop & I am so glad that I made the trip to it…read more Everything is set out so nicely. There are 2 floors, filled with cross stitch patterns, threads, fabric. Also, they cater for punch needle & appliqué. There are some lovely handmade wooden bread boards, dyed in primitive colors. The shop owners father has made them & if I remember correctly, he's in his 80's. They are so lovingly made! The shop owners name escapes me (my apologies) but she was lovely. She totally engaged with me & was so helpful when I asked questions. I genuinely look forward to getting back there in the future, I just wish this shop was my local. Also, they have another shop a few doors up with primitive pictures, candles, decor etc. It's so worth a visit if that's where your interest is.

People drive from all over to come to this store for a good reason! I'm lucky that it's not too far…read morefrom me! They have everything, and I mean everything. Hand tools, grinders, molds, and glass, glass, glass! My favorite thing to do is search through the discount bins they have in the front- you can find some real treasures in there! You can easily get lost in the back room looking at all the glass. They have hundreds of design and pattern books as well. The staff is well educated and can answer any question you have. I've asked before for glass in specific shades and they know exactly which brand has what I'm looking for. If you're considering driving out to come, you won't regret it! Just make sure you have a big enough car to hold everything you get!

I have been to this store a few times over the last couple months. Many shelves are empty with…read moreboxes piled up all over and blocking the aisles.

I wanted to give this store a fair chance- I've been twice now, so my review is a combination of…read moreboth experiences. The first thing you notice when you enter the store is that everything is hodge-podged together- the "shelves" are the type of shelves you put in your basement or shed to store boxes- definitely not what you'd use for a store display. That being said, it's new and I'm sure it's expensive to open a new store, so whatever- looks aren't everything. They have a decent amount of items in the store for the size. Good quality sketch pads and pens. My major issue is the attitude of the owner. The owner of the store took every opportunity to speak poorly of the newly closed art supply store that was next door. The owner worked there for many years and opened this current store after the other store closed. When I walked in the first time, the owner was in the midst of a conversation with a customer about how "crazy" the former store owner was, etc etc. That customer left and I was the only one in the store. Since I live in the neighborhood I asked her questions about her new store- I didn't know she had any ties to the former art store in the same shopping complex, so I got to hear how awful this other owner was, how she wanted to overcharge her for everything, etc. I came in again last week to grab a sketch pad and it was the same story- I could hardly believe it. All this effort and breath wasted to put down a business that doesn't even exist anymore. I was so off-put by it, that I didn't even buy the sketchpad. As a business owner in Frederick myself, I think it's pretty easy to assume that we should all play by rule #1: do not speak ill of others when representing your business. Period. I don't know the history between the two women, but that doesn't matter to me- it's just bad business to speak poorly of others. She could have taken the opportunity to explain how she was going to do things differently, what she will carry and her hopes for the store, etc etc- instead she decided to take the low road and insult a company that is out of business and of no threat to her store. While there aren't too many places in town to purchase artist supplies from an independent dealer, I won't be shopping here again.

The service is excellent, very helpful and friendly. We have been doing business there for years…read moreand I would highly recommend.
