“Great selection, great prices. I prefer spending my money on mom and pop businesses and I don't regret trying this place out. They have the basics and more, plus the owner is AWESOME, he's knowledgeable and friendly. Doesn't try to push any purchase he only makes suggestions. Keep it up”
“Found what I was looking for quickly and was asked multiple times if I was finding what I needed. I like being seen by the staff. They were all very busy up dating the store but none of them dismissed the customers as they worked on up grading the shelf systems..”
“I have been a teacher for 7 years, and today I decided to go to Lakeshore (the last time I visited this store was about 10 years ago). I walked out of there MIND BLOWN! The back to school sales are INSANE, and just EVERYTHING is quality material! The workers were constantly checking in with me and also offering to go check the back for more supplies! I feel like I have missed out for years now! They truly have the best selection and can't beat the prices for the amount/bulk they sell! I walked out of there with the best deals and the best items to set me up for the year!”
“Freeform is the only ceramic supply store I've been recommended, and will only recommend to anyone asking for one. I've consistently found everything I was looking for, and have received great advice on the small odd questions I come up with (like the bottle of underglaze I've got saying cone 5-4, when it can actually be used for more than that.)”
“This is an amazing little shop…a hidden gem. Lots of homegrown brands, rare snacks and drinks, as well as a cool art supply shop. Do yourself a favor and check them out! It’s run by a group of solid individuals.”
“We love our local art shop!! Owner is always so kind and often gives a smile/wave when you walk by, regardless of whether you’re coming in to buy anything.
I love stopping by to check out the rotating gallery and pickup some fun pens/markers.
I’m fully convinced the poor reviews on this page were weird one-off situations bc we’ve had nothing but great interactions with this business. Supporting small biz in this day and age is far more important to me than having to wait a few extra minutes for the owner to open shop (which we’ve never experienced in about a dozen visits, by the way - just addressing others’ complaints).”
“This place is my Disneyland! Love it!!!! If you are a creative person and loves unique things or unique gifts, this is the place to go! LOVE IT! ❤️. Extremely organized and has all holiday decorations here.”
