It's important to know that they stock every type of supply for all art avenues/mediums - not limited to painting. They also maintain an inventory of virtually every size canvas and at great prices. Stephanie and Alan are very helpful. I have been shopping with them for ~15 years. I went into the original store. They have been instrumental in getting me started on my acrylic journey. I love shopping there. I don't paint as much as I used to, but they are my first stop when I get ready to do a project. They have a wonderful selection and they are very helpful. I basically tell them what I want to do and they help me run with it. I highly recommend this business.

I happened to be over in Ponte Vedra the other day and swung into PV Arts & Crafts as I heard that…read morethey had a section of needlepoint designs and supplies. I've slowly come back into doing cross-stitch and it's been tough to find a local store with supplies, designs, and hand-dyed floss and fabric. There were a few kits at Reddi-Arts prior to their closure, but I haven't found much that isn't, at least, an hour drive away now. While the cross-stitch/embroidery section was a bit smaller than I hoped, I was excited to find some great Satsuma Street designs, some hand-dyed thread, and some different fabrics that were available. I definitely could come by with a floss color key and gather all I need for any project. I didn't get a chance to fully explore the books or even get into where the majority of PV Arts & Crafts fabric is held, but I'm looking forward to my next trip to delve in even more. As I was on my lunch, I didn't have too much time to poke around further into the store, so I'll have to make a return trip when I don't have a time restriction. This is a spot that is much bigger on the inside than it appears from the outside, and everyone would benefit for having some time to explore.

Found this business via Local Flavor or probably wouldn't have known about it…read more Cute little shop in the heart of Edgewood, owned by a mother and daughter duo. They were both so sweet & helpful! They have hundreds of designs to choose from or they can pretty much create just about anything you want. They also have tons of different shapes and sizes of boards from which to choose. The daughter explained the whole process to us and let us roll. You start by staining the board then blow drying it so you can get to the next step. That would be applying the sticker stencil then painting with a good 3 or so coats. Let that baby dry then voila! Masterpiece done. I highly recommend this business! Support locals, have a blast (ummm BYOB!!), and create a gift (or keep for yourself )

I had purchased a Groupon for this crafting session- and had to email back and forth to schedule…read moreand redeem the groupons. There was a break in communication over several days- so I reached out again to make sure we were booked and it was as though I had never emailed in the first place- although the email chain was all below. The shop is located in Murray Hill and it looks run down outside- we happened to pick the same night as Octoberfest was being celebrated by another business and parking was a bear. Once through the door our instructor was very chatty and thoroughly gave instruction- our group consisted of three of us and we are all crafters, who also all work at Michael's. Which we did tell our lovely instructor- we probably could have sped up the process a bit because of it- but we kept at the pace set by our leader. This is not a franchise- but an honest Jacksonville start up business. I do appreciate that. We stained our wood, set our stencils on our boards and were off to pick paints. They only do chalk paints and I learned a valuable lesson using these paints. They stink! I am going to assume that chalk paints can go bad- because I can't imagine anyone buying and using paints that smelled like dead animals- but that's exactly what some of these jars smelled like when I cracked them open. Tiff - my friend- works a ranch and completely agreed with my assessment! I am hyper sensitive to smells and this threw me. I pushed on and finished painting. Our instructor tried to give us tips- haha- I say try because us stubborn crafters barely followed her suggestions. I wanted my paint to still show the wood grain beneath- she thought I should've put more paint on- but I ended up with exactly the desired look. My one friend- Naomi didn't want any bright colors that would clash with her home- not even on her Halloween sign! I thought it was cute- she was so set on just black, white and gray. Tiff- she slathered the most paint on and hers was tacky-damp even as she left my house an hour after! Instruction = 4 stars (slow but thorough) Paint = 2 stars for the ones almost empty- they were noxious Final product = 5 stars we all had fun and left happy

They used to be in my backyard! Practically. I needed clay for class and the professor sent us to see Paul- 900 mix clay with a student discount! Yay!!! Then for the fun shopping- and I behaved, even though I wanted a ton of things. One glaze, because I already have of 30 pints of glaze at home. One tool- again, because I already have an assortment. One stamp- a Celtic one that I had to have as soon as I saw it!!! I am positive I will be back for more clay and probably more tools too. Love to support local and this local business helps me support my clay obsession!
