Reviews
from Yelp:
"Strange and marvelous center for the crafter. If you are one of
those people who always have a project going - welcome to Nirvana."
"This place is ridiculously cool... I frequent this place, and
I love it."
"Amazing for teachers and educators, even better for families who
don't have the economic means to buy lots of new art supplies. "
"I always find treasures here. I love this place. I have made so
many art projects with the very inexpensive items I have come accross
over the years."
"I've got to give 10 stars to the staff for organizing all the
stuff that comes in... Thank you, THANK YOU for having a place to donate
my stuff instead of having to throw it away."
"This place is amazing, anything you can imagine will show up here
at one point or another. If you want a killer Halloween costume, a part
for an art project or just want to take a look around, this place is
always a blast."
"The ultimate recycling/reuse center!"
