“Love this place! The staff are so knowledgeable and always have great recommendations. I went in for some fine art paint brushes and they were able to give me options for a few different price points. Will always shop here for my canvases & paint supplies!”
“Shop of many wonders, deep and profound. Many men can find wisdom here, and the women can find their second set of wisdom, sense they are infinitely more profound and complex and wise than the male culture. Here you can find artwork of other places and worlds, special procurements of different varieties, and a bewilderment”
“If you’re willing to dig and look and have time and patience, this store is incredible! My daughter found many items for her junk journaling and other projects. It’s all recycled/used items, but the possibilities are endless! Such a fun store!”
“Today was my first time coming here and I was blown away! I called first and the person who answered the phone was very knowledgeable. They had everything I needed in stock. Raven was very helpful in store and great to talk to. Very friendly! ? Keep doing what y'all do, fantastic store for printmaking.”

“Huge shout out to Juniper for helping my company purchase some much needed art supplies for a gig in Minneapolis. As a company located in Chicago, we often need to procure materials on location and before we arrive. Juniper stepped in to helped from start. you really made this process easy, breezy. And I am grateful.”
“There is a wonderful variety of stock (beads, thread, tools, wire, etc) and very helpful and kind staff. Prices are great too. I’d recommend Bobby Bead over Micheal’s any day”
“Love going here and supporting an Indigenous business. They have so many different things from kids toys to star quilts and a huge bead selection. The staff are always super friendly and share where their pieces have come from. Definitely give it a try!”
“A big thank you to Melody at the White Bear Ave location who was super helpful in choosing the best colors, style and sizing on my picture framing project. Her eagerness to share her expertise and time was comparable to an actual framing studio.”
“Very good prices, can get really good stuff on clearance. I always go before I go get groceries next door so I always have my backpack on with my reusable shopping bag inside to carry my groceries with after and nobody ever follows me around the store or bothers me for wearing my backpack which is nice. checkout never has much of a line of any. Bathrooms are clean and employees are always friendly.”
“Fantastic shop for art supplies (of the drawn/painting kinds). There's an array of paint types, colours, canvases, sketchbooks, pencils, tools, most anything you can think of needing for the craft! Staff are friendly and incredibly helpful too!”
