I came in the store looking for Klean Klay, which apparently is no longer made, but ended up walking out with Monster Clay which I've absolutely fallen in love with over the past few days. Thanks to Sandra and Chris for taking the time to answer all my questions. I definitely recommend AFA Supplies to any sculptors in the Burbank area. I'll be back again.

One of the iconic treasures of the LA art world. It has an amazing history (it's the oldest art…read moresupply shop in Los Angeles), it has materials I've literally not been able to find elsewhere. Also, it fosters community, hosting monthly art exhibits which local artists can submit to. The prices are very reasonable. The staff are helpful and kind. Each month's exhibit has a theme, and there's always an opening reception. Unlike many art shows, Carter Sexton's shows don't ask for money just to submit your work. Only if your work is accepted and you choose to participate do you pay a modest fee ($15) which is a great deal, because the shop clearly spends a lot of time making placards for each piece with the artist's name and mini-bio, and then hanging the work. You can sell your exhibited work and/or sell prints of it. I'm so grateful for the community this place fosters!

Very disappointing experience. I placed my canvas order only yesterday afternoon , and by this…read moremorning it was already "finished." When I saw the work, I was shocked by how sloppy, rushed, and low quality it looked. This was not professional work and not something any business should hand to a customer. I explained that I was unhappy with the quality and asked for my money back because I could not use this canvas for my client. Instead of trying to fix the problem, they refused and kept saying, "This is how we do it," and that they already spent time, labor, and materials on it. They acted like there was nothing wrong with the work at all. What made the experience even worse was the attitude and disrespect. Instead of helping or apologizing, I was told to leave the store. I also took photos of the canvas so people can judge the quality for themselves. I would not recommend this place if you expect professionalism, quality workmanship, or respectful customer service.

I love this place--it always has what I need, even when I don't know it yet . The employees are…read morealways nice and helpful.

Hobby Lobby is one of my favorite stores to visit during holiday times. They usually have the…read morecutest decoration items. They have a variety of items for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I really liked the selection of ornaments they had this year. Prices can be compatible with the other stores. They have really good sales around holidays or after holidays. Employees are usually nice and friendly. The only complaint I have is the long lines. No matter how many cashiers are working , there is always a long line. Parking can be really challenging during the weekends. Sometimes it is really hard to find a parking spot. It is better to park close to Burger King since that area usually is not that crowded.

Been a customer for years. Experts in their field, hands down. Did you know that the TV series…read moreFace/Off was taped just blocks away? They were instrumental in the supply and, I think, the consultation/safety. If you have questions on your project, that's what they do...just make sure to give some detail (medium, wearable, etc.). I could walk around for hours here (probably did on my first visit) to view not only all the supplies but distracted by floor/wall adorned decorations they created and a dedicated customer display. Posted warning at the entrance of no children of a certain age and also an age limit to purchase. Attended a very cool seminar presented by Glen (45+ years experience) and Laura (very detailed and cautious). Both had so many tips and tricks with live demonstrations...I should have brought a notepad; others were much more proficient. Truly inspirational place and hub for our projects. Some of the items are exclusively sold at Reynolds Advanced Materials; they even have their own crafted stuff that are far superior in quality and inexpensive. Remember that you should always do your research on what you'll be handling as the side effects are no joke. Errors/mistakes could cost hours and money.

The real deal. Excellent resource for professional, or even aspiring artists and designers. An old…read moreschool establishment with genuine staff, I hope they never change a bit about them. Charming and creative, you'll be sure to find all your necessary materials here. They are very well stocked with everything you can think off. If you're into this kind of vibe, check out Nigel's and Frend's. Those are more specialty makeup and special fx cosmetics. But they share a similar classic Hollywood vibe. Good selection, highly recommend. I find the value is in their quality goods and services.

An abosutely amazing find. The building has a few rooms, gatheting items of all sorts left behind. Each piece has a story that Tiger will surely tell. The hours are a little iffy. If he is open go inside. This is defiently one of my favorite new shops.

I was walking back to my car in a nearby parking structure when I noticed this adorable little shop…read moreand thought, "Ooo, how cute!" I checked the hours on the door and saw that on weekends they're "sometimes" open -- which I thought was hilarious -- so of course, I had to step inside. It's a small shop that somehow feels bigger on the inside, like a little labyrinth full of surprises. The owner, Tiger, greeted us right away and was such a delight -- super personable, funny, and full of fascinating stories. He's clearly been everywhere and knows so much about the things he sells. There's a bit of everything here, and you can tell it's all curated with care and experience. Such a cool hidden gem in Burbank that I can't believe I hadn't noticed until now. Definitely worth checking out!

I feel so bad for everyone who works here and for the customers who come in…read more They're constantly short staffed, the staff that is there, is visibly stressed the eff out due to the lack of staffing. There's virtually no employees on the floor to help so, myself and multiple other customers have to stand in line to ask our simple little questions that stress management out. I mean straight up stressed out, sweating, heavy breathing, like they're having an anxiety attack. This is all corporates fault really. Understaffing their stores is not helpful to anyone. I used to work at a big name art supply store, we were always fully staffed. The days we weren't, were a nightmare. Michaels needs to do better by their employees. I bought a bunch of yarn and to be honest, I'm just going to return it. I don't feel it's worth it to shop here anymore. I don't want my money going towards a corporate entity that obviously doesnt care about its employees or its customers. Customer service starts with content employees. Come on Michaels. Do better.

This store usually has great sales on the seasonal items. Depending on the time you visit this store has 40% to 50% sale. The merchandise is reasonably priced and can be cheaper compared to similar stores. Recently, they have added self checkouts. They have cashiers helping too, but it's mostly self check out. Employees are nice and friendly. No complaints about the customer service. For parking, this location has plenty of parking space shared with other stores.
