“Such a great shop with unique artisan gifts. The owner Lori is wonderful and has also has helped me with beads that needed to be repurposed into a new piece of jewelry. This place is a hidden gem in Hudson. Don’t miss her holiday shopping night, it is so much fun.”
“This is more than a yarn store, even though that's why I was there. They have an excellent collection of yarns to choose from, well organized by weight and color, though it can be a little frustrating if you're trying to locate multiple colors of the same yarn. However the staff makes up for this with how friendly and helpful they are. They have good recommendations as well.In addition to yarns, they have a collection of locally made goods. They have some home sewn items as well as local jellies, jams, and preserves. There are always a selection of baking mixes as well. There is a lot to choose from, giving the whole place a country craft vibe.There are classes, workshops, and knit-alongs offered, as well as a program that offers badges for skill completion, which is a fun tie back to scouting days. The whole vibe is welcoming and enjoyable.This also may not matter to some, but I've had some challenges being of a more alternative appearance in shops in the past because of my piercings, tattoos, and less conventional fashion. Perhaps it's the lack of constantlu wearing knit goods... Mostly this comes in the form of people expecting I know nothing about crafting, but it gets under my skin because I've been knitting for over 15 years, though I don't keep much of what I make or only use it with historic dress. However, here I've been given a good reception, and while there have been questions about my experience, it's never an assumption, and generally it's with the express purpose of guiding me towards selections that would meet my needs, or to suggest ideas for new techniques or tools that would appeal to my skill level. It's a refreshing change.”

“This place was so welcoming when I stopped there once! So sad this place is going out of business. Really gonna miss it. The town center won’t be the same without it ?”
“The Paper Store is great if one is a woman shopping, or a man gift shopping for his wife, mother, or girlfriend. There are some greeting cards and some nice stationary for men, plus some calendars that might be of interest to men, but 95% of the merchandise offered is of interest mainly to women.”
“They were so nice and helpful when my niece and I came in to find a present for her brand new baby brother. Lovely team and great assortment of quality items. Highly recommend.”
“Pleasant staff, they make sure they give order status and time frames. Place is very clean and follows Covid protocols which is essential still today! Great location and great variety of options for baskets and arrangements.”
“This is a store to go in with no expectations. You'll see things you might not see elsewhere. You might get disappointed at not finding what you want. Also, don't go in expecting low pricing. But it's a great place to window shop.”
“Love love love this store! I come here for smoke stuff and everyone here is Knowledgeable and kind. I've been here many times and have never had any problems”
“I love this crystal shop! Every time I stop in there is something new and beautiful to buy. I especially like the crystal bracelets with smaller diameter beads than I usually see in other stores.”
