“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 ?”
“Elsie Kaye hosted a mini bachelorette evening for our group of five. We chose the glass bead class. It was an awesome learning experience, and Holly was able to walk us through the process in a very user friendly way. I enjoyed myself enough that I would contemplate another class. Additionally, we were able to bring food in and have a bite in her shop before our class. She went above and beyond my expectations setting up a table with a sign and balloons for our bride. I would highly recommend this experience.”
“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.”

“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.”

“Outstanding and unique handcrafted items in this special shop in downtown Sterling MA. I have found many items here for gifting that were especially lived by the recipients!”
“The women were very helpful to us. When we came in with a receipt for a gift card but lost the gift card ( had a large birthday party) they gave us headquarters phone number.
We did come with a store credit and coupons. This was a long process at the register, but everyone was great and we enjoyed.
We’ll be back soon when the new gift card comes in!”

“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.”
