Hobby Shops in Largo, FL

“Wow! I know I need to write a bit more, but seriously? WOW! I am so happy I found this place. I was looking for a particular shell and needed at least a dozen if not more. The prices at other places were astronomical and they weren't even real shells. So, I found this place on google and decided to give it a try. It is a bit difficult to find and I almost gave up and returned home, I am so grateful I didn't! This place is amazing! There is every type of shell imaginable from all areas of the world. Jim, "The Shell Guy" as he is known by, Is perhaps the kindest, most friendly person I have ever met. I felt like I had met up with an old friend or family member. His knowledge of shells, sea-life, where to find them, how to polish them, etc. etc. was unbelievable. I thought the way I was doing something was the correct way, I showed him photos and he knew exactly what was wrong and told me another way to try it. It worked!!! He takes great pride in what he does and it shows by every item in the store. Honestly, he should be giving classes on what he does. He is an absolute delight to talk to, knows WAY more than I could have imagined and will assist you in any way he can. I am proud to call this man my friend and look forward to my next visit! Thank you Jim for the time you spent with me, your knowledge and above all your kindness.”

“A lot of my spare time is spent on art-related projects and most often buy my regular supplies in bulk from a major discount online source. However, sometimes I find myself needing an odd, offbeat item, or simply ran out of a needed material. This Michael's has helped me with getting those items in between my usual orders. This location is clean, organized, and the staff have always been very helpful. Their prices are higher than my discount source, but they often have coupons that offset the difference. Just avoid giving them your email or they will bombard your in-box with spam to the point of ridiculousness!”
