A lovely shop by creatives for creatives…read more Loved this store! It made me want to buy everything because it was all displayed so beautifully. Walking into the store immediately it's clear that the owners are artists themselves with a discerning eye for colors, textures, and design compositions. They sell a variety of art supplies and stationary and also hold art classes. The product displays included not only the products themselves but also samples of art that could be created with them. Mini pages of dabbled watercolors lent an air of inspiration with their translucent ombré tones. Dried flowers and twigs, bright warm-shades of fall leaves brought nature into the store and made prime still life subject matter. You could tell the owners put a lot of creative energy and passion into this space. Though I didn't have much direct interaction with the staff, I overheard them helping other customers and providing recommendations. Definitely recommend stopping by in Cold Spring.

The company aims to support and preserve the art form by working closely with the local community of artisans. What a lovely mission and I love nothing more than to support local artists. I tried on several pieces of clothing and ended up with a beautiful dark teal blue loose jumpsuit with peacock feather print. It's beautiful, easy to wash and super comfortable. It also has pockets. Totally worth the price (around $40 I believe). The clerk was very nice and helpful and I look forward to going back the next time I am in Beacon.

I'm not generally one for arts and crafts, but I bought a wreath for my front door from Cornwall…read moreCountry Crafts and it is really a lovely and well-made product. It has a fall theme - perfect for this time of year - is a fairly good size, and cost around $35, which is not a bad price considering that you'll pay much more for smaller wreaths from Williams-Sonoma. The woman who sold me the wreath was very pleasant and makes all of the wreaths herself. I received a lot of compliments on the product, and it looks very nice on my front door. It's worth noting that I've never actually been to the Cornwall Country Crafts store. The owner had set up a booth at an arts and crafts fair I went to and that's where I ended up purchasing the wreath. While I have no idea what the store itself is actually like, I'm sure it's probably lovely and well-maintained. They make lovely products, so it stands to reason that the store should be lovely as well.

The Chapel of Sacred Mirrors was an interesting spot in the Town of Wappinger. It is basically an…read moreart museum featuring psychadelic art that they readily admit was inspired due to trips on LSD and other drugs. Also, the main artist is Alex Grey who for a long time has done artwork for the band Tool. I think at first the art seems very impressive and trippy, but after a while it all starts to feel the same. There is a cafe on site but I did not visit as the building it was housed in asked you to take off your shoes and it was snowy the day I went. At 20 dollars it feels a bit expensive but overall I am glad I went. That said, some detractors online have called the place "a cult" and the vibes I felt were a little weird. I don't use the term lightly, but just going to state what others have said. Apparently they also have once a month events (around the full moon?) that neighbors have described as very loud. So definitely some negative reports on them not being the best neighbors. In short, worth a visit to check out the art, but not sure about some of the other programming.
