I just had a fantastic experience at Art Spot in Edmonds. Their Instagram account is @artspotedmonds be sure to follow and stay posted.
Pros:
Excellent prices, reasonable yet competitive.
Carefully selected quality materials.
Some more affordable options.
Fun sales! There was a square canvas for 1.99 and some wordless colored pencils for 99 cents.
I purchased a piece of paper because I was traveling a didn’t need a whole pad and the owner was kind enough to cut it down for me :’)
They have supplies that I could never find at Michael’s, hobby lobby, staples, or Office Depot. OR AMAZON. Get in on their insanely elaborate pen selection.
Merchandised sales floor with aisles wide enough for multiple customers or folks with accessibility needs to comfortably browse while being able to easily view the products.
The employee Grace was super sweet, Brynn and she were both helpful, gracious, and accommodating.
I found a seven year pen…. With a Harry Potter lightning bolt.
Affirming and supportively celebratory of the LGBTQ+ community 🌈🌈🌈
Cons:
I don’t live here.
Thanks a million! Much love and appreciation to this family owned business for their ten years of bringing an incredible selection and vibe to this community and its visitors...

One of the suggested pens was exactly what I wanted, and it made my project so...

I was afraid, but Vincent was incredibly kind and encouraging and supportive, not to mention technically excellent. He set me up with supplies and made me feel like I could paint.
