This was my daughter and my first time visiting Artful Things and will be coming back. The owner…read morewas beyond helpful. We were immediately greeted and when I told her my daughter is a little artist and want to feed her passion of art. The owner took the time to walk my 8yr old through the store explaining and showing her all that my daughter wanted to know or might be interested in. Along with that she also informed us of classes that the store has taught by local artist. By the time we left with some art supplies/work my daughter couldn't stop talking about how much she loved the store and can't wait to come back for the classes. Local business that I will gladly support. So very pleased and happy we finally stopped by to look inside. Amazing local artist and their art work along with amazing hospitality and very personable. We felt very welcomed.

We were able to make a reservation just the day before online, but this availability may vary during more peak seasons. We were there during the shoulder season. The kids class (Shard Shop Original Art Class) is really reasonably priced and they had a blast creating their own piece of art! Strange, but their only other location is in New Orleans. We showed up on time for our appointment and did not feel rushed. There was one party leaving and another party was there with us, so my kids had their own table full of supplies. They have sample you can base your art off of, or you can freestyle it. Everything was included! Note that it takes a little over 24 hours for your art to cure so don't plan this the day before or the day you are leaving the area. They can always mail it to you, but there is a cost associated and it's more fun to pick it up yourself.

Which was a plus and the store itself was large so it wasn't like you were on top of the other parties. There were many ceramic options to choose from for painting!

I wish there were more shades available! We will be back!

I am giving this business 5-stars not because their service was flawless: it wasn't. But the way…read morethey handled the minor "blips" showed genuine customer concern and a willingness to make things right that I truly appreciate. The materials needed to frame my painting took longer than anticipated being delivered and once the wooden frame parts were delivered, the owner made a small measuring mistake, meaning that piece couldn't be used. He ordered a replacement part and the frame was completed the next day. I am very happy with the frame and how the picture looks in my condo. I will use Frames & Things for any future picture framing needs.
