I stumbled across this craft store and I'm so happy I did! I love planners, pens and everything journals and this store delivered. It spread to be small but once you go inside it's bigger than I expected and they have packed the store with goodies.Amazing collection of fountain pens and inks, regular pens and markers as well. They had paint, sketchbooks, journals, washi tape...the list goes on!Best part was the prices were good! I will be back!!!

I popped in here for a short 30 minutes to kill some time and found the spot to be awesomely stocked with a lot of great tools and resources x as an artist myself, I saw no shortage of supply here. They even had a small book section where I found a daily sketch journal. I wasn't planning on purchasing anything, but after finding this book I felt I had landed here for a reason. The staff were also super courteous and kind and approached me a couple times to support my shopping needs. I walked in wanting to kill time, and walked out happy customer feeling like my calling was once again knocking on my door. I am grateful for this visit and look forward to returning.

This store is dangerous. I am not an artist but I could spend a lot of money here. I stopped in to buy Christmas presents. Super helpful staff who helped me pick out pens for my nephew who is learning Japanese and a paint set for my sister. I found some excellent journal pens for myself and even bought drawing pens. The selection is vast, prices are reasonable and staff so helpful. Love it!

Incredible art store! I came to pick out some craft activities for my kids (4 and 1) and they had such a nice selection of things to make and also craft boxes. The staff here is truly next level, incredible friendly and helpful! They helped me pick out the perfect complimentary colors for a painting, and guided me through some great project ideas for the kids. I love this store!

Beautiful selection of countless art supplies. One time I came in and had my eyes on some fountain pens though being in high school I unfortunately couldn't afford any at the time. A sweet woman ended up finding me on my way out of the store and had purchased a pen and gifted it to me as she overheard me telling my friends I wish I had one. This just goes to show the type of people who come in here. After the fact, a store clerk showed me how to use my pen and how to refill it for future use.

A really neat art shop! The shop has a fountain pen section, the section has a good variety and even includes some pilots (and the prices were comparable to online stores). You can try the pen there -which I think is super valuable- and look at ink charts (come on, you know you need another ink even if you have 50 of the same shade) I also saw a nice watercolor and gouache section and crafts sectionThe staff was very friendly and no shortage of help, a must see if you want an in-person art store

Best art store in Minnesota with helpful and knowledgeable staff! It's my go to shop when I need supplies with prices only slightly higher than Amazon. I'd rather give my business to a small non-chain store than Amazon! Even if you are not an artist stop in at Wet Paint it's a great store to just browse through.

Live nearby this location but have not frequented it. The second kid is big into drawing. And we consume lots of sketch pads as a result. I got the emergency SOS that we were out on my way home for work and so I stopped in. Instantly greeted in a friendly way when I walked in I explain the situation was brought over to the exact thing I needed. Checked out by another friendly staffer. I have no idea how the price compares to other locations or Amazon or whatever but the experience here was very positive and would bring me back. Recommended.

This place is my favorite store in Saint Paul. They have a wide variety of arts and crafts, and the employees are both kind and knowledgeable. Very local, small business feel. I love coming here! Earlier this week I thought I lost my wallet at this store, and called back to ask if they found it. They didn't, and I came back the next day to check. They then told me when I called, they remembered me and retraced my steps to look for it for me. What incredible customer service.
