A must stop in store when shopping in Brattleboro. Very helpful with any of my art, crafts, or framing needs. I have had many inspirational moments while visiting this gem of Brattleboro over the years. The staff here are willing to take the time to understand my needs and share the knowledge of various art tools and supplies. This store has never led me towards buying something I have no need for. If Zephyrs does not carry what I am in need of they graciously direct me to where I can get what I am in need of for the project in hand.

I love creating visual art and am ever so thankful for all the help I find when entering this establishment. Yes, sometimes I go here and have to wait a bit longer for service.

Zephyr Designs is one of the locally owned shops that I hope will carry on for many, many more years. Shopping online may often be more convenient but it has never given me any wonderful or memorable...
   Read moreI stopped in today, for the first time, with a framing project. John (owner) and Cindy couldn't have been more kind or helpful. They teamed up to get the job completed more timely than I could have hoped for. This is definitely the place to shop for all your framing needs (and art supplies) for an experience that restored my faith that quality service and customer care does still exist in today's more impersonalized world. Thank you...
