Unfinished Creations

I can’t think of a time when I’ve had a better shopping experience. This shop seems to be a very-well kept secret where points of difference abound.

For instance, I purchased three-ring binders for 35% of what is charged by larger, more well-known stores. The prices of other items I picked up - a composition notebook (made in America), highlighters, Pilot G2 Series pens, Pilot G2 Series 0.38 refills - seemed the same, fractionally speaking, compared to counterparts available at more common stores.

I’ll make special trips to get office supplies here next time I need them.

Pam is always really sweet to me. She always has a great selection of items in store. I find this business absolutely necessary to the function of a town like Yellow Springs, especially considering the number of artists we have here. Don't forget that she also has jewelry repair services!

Pam is so helpful when I need odds and ends for projects, Whether its just zipping in & out for what I know I need, Or actually asking for advice, when I'm trying new methods or mediums, and it seems like she has almost everything, or can get it in no time. If you had a bad time I think you came in with a bad attitude but what do I know? I only made a pig for the wall

It is amazing that this little store can possibly hold so much! Pam often has just what I’m looking for, and can order whatever she doesn’t carry. This shop is one of the best, most authentic Shops in Yellow Springs.

Pam is reserved, but very helpful. She is talented in jewelry repair and creation. I recommend her to others frequently. Couldn't do without her services.
With regards to the very negative review, sometimes one has to be worthy of respect and not so demanding of it.

Fantastic store for such a small space. Owner really knows her stuff. And she is not rude. Maybe a little prickly, but that's about it. She always remembers my son and what kinds of pens he likes. His face lights up every time.

Artists, forget ordering everything off of Amazon. With this store you only have to order some products.

This is artist heaven. Anything artistic, craft, or office supply can be bought here with variety. Sections separated for various interests.

—Artists—

∞ Pens | Mechanical pencils
The thinnest mechanical pencils and pens known to man are available here. Move over Micron, Le Pen is cheaper and has larger size variety. Including but not limited to: 0.3, 0.1, 0.005, 0.003.
This is my area of expertise.

∞ Mechanical erasers
Omh I didn't know these existed until I saw them in person. It took a few days of observation to truly understand what they were for.
I'm so excited, I can't wait to try these once I have funds.

∞ Traditional pencils | Charcoal
Various shading pencils, stereotypical artist materials. Not my cup of tea but surely abundant for those who do use these. I don't like them in general, lead gets on my hands and you have to manually sharpen them.

∞ Clay
There's so much variety of clay. Numerous Sculpey types and colors for modeling clay. I'm excited to try the Sculpey brand out to cast in silicone.
Clay shaping tools are not impressive. Go to another store.

∞ Watercolor
Basic sets, not sure how expensive they're supposed to be. Might want to look for these elsewhere.

∞ Markers
Unfortunately mostly Sharpie and Crayola. Specific art markers you'll have to get somewhere else.

∞Canvas
Basically anything you need, from acrylic to watercolor. Various sizes.
There's cute little artist "trading cards" for sharing art pieces smaller than the size of a postcard. Be sure to know what medium you're using them for so you pick the right packet.

∞ ect
Can't remember if I saw a miniature hot glue gun. Will have to visit to confirm.

—Office—
Hole punches, lanyard pieces, printing paper, envelopes, sticky notes, rulers, pencils, pens, etc

—Paper—

∞ Sketch
Whole section of sketchbooks available on multiple large shelves.

∞ Grid
Different packets of grid paper. Not much variety you can find here in general.

∞ Bujo
They have two variations of bullet grid paper books right now, but I'm interested in spiral or whole punched, not bound. (You could probably buy it like this and hole punch out yourself honestly)

—Crafts—
Stones, beads, jewelry pieces and threads.

∞ Sewing | Knitting | Quilting
Won't find materials here. Look elsewhere.

One of the last places around to get quality art & stationery supplies. A great selection of items and always friendly staff.

The only place to get the type of pens I need. I love the service; we appreciate character and characters in our village.

So many supplies for artists, writers, etc...

Notepads, pens, drawing pads, brushes, etc...

You can find lots of things here for writing, drawing, or art projects.

Pam is so helpful and has an amazing range of art and office supplies.

Love the assortment of supplies. Carries just what is necessary. Owner is very helpful and knowledgeable.

Pam has the cheapest left-handed clipboards in Yellow Springs.

Super helpful and friendly staff, didnt have everything I needed but I will definitely shop again.

Great selection and the owner is nice, knowledgeable and skilled. One of my favorites in the Village.

Smart owner. Easy access to art materials. Quick Service.

What a wonderful collection of paint brushes for the artists.

One of my favorite stores in Yellow Springs!

Lovely place! Nice stones & crystals.

GREAT SHOP. Things you can not find anywhere else.
