hi guys…i’m being crafty this weekend, but being away from the suburbs makes it hard to find materials for little projects. i’m trying to do this project on not martha, but need a store to find magnets, silicone sealer, etc. does anyone know of any crafty supply stores (like a michael’s) in manhattan or brooklyn?? thanks!

i second pearl on canal st if u can’t find it there it dont exist lol there’s a smaller pearl somewhere near the school of visual arts too.
don’t ever under estimate the power of the DEEP! didn’t a Home Depot open up in New York??
oops i third it i just saw that kelly sue seconded lol
Peal opened a craft only annex on the street south of the main Canal St. location so if you don’t find what you need in the main building try ’round back. If you have a student ID you’ll get 10% off their already discounted prices.
I mainly go to Lee’s Art shop up on 57th. There is something about Pearl that doesn’t work for me. It seems like they are always out of the one thing I need. As far as Lee’s goes, It’s not too big and if you get stuck for papers Kate’s in on the same block.
radio shack!!
And when you get there… don’t skip the silicone for something else! It makes a difference!
you should be able to find the magnets and silicone at any hardware store.
in brooklyn: save-a-thon on flatbush, somewhere between caton and church. it’s fabric, sewing and some craft supplies.
