740 Front St, Lisle“A group of friends did a mosaic class last Wednesday evening at Nathalie Studio. The owner and her husband guided us all through our projects for a three hour class. We had a ball and ended up with a fun mosaic to bring home. They also teach stained class, reverse paining and so many other disciplines which we may do at a later date. Thank you Nathalie and Uri!”
“Francis Penavic, the owner of Ogden Art Studio, who trained at the Chicago Art Institute is an amazing painting instructor. His ability to help others see components of painting, techniques used, brush strokes, color make up and styles are lessons that will stay with me.
My fear of oil painting is finally over thanks to this remarkable teacher.”

131 W 1st St, Elmhurst“I really love this store, I’ve walked past it many times and always see beautiful pieces in the window which rotate frequently. The owner is so sweet and everything is reasonably priced. I finally went in and purchased an item. I will absolutely be back! Another note is that the store changes by the season. When I went there were lots of cute fall items available like pumpkins and fall towels.”
“Law saved/ restored our leaded glass window, which is original to our 1890’s home. He did a fantastic job, re-leading the entire piece! He gave us several options on how to restore the piece, being considerate of our budget. He was very honest and communicative throughout the entire process. Law is a true craftsman and is very gifted. I would highly recommend him to anyone I know needing glass work done.”

“Very cute place. I love the space. Very aesthetic.The rental charge is very pricey but you know it takes money to make money. The location is kinda odd but it works.”
“I have been going to the Lizzadro Museum for many years, but this was my first time to the new location. The site is gorgeous, and we enjoyed the new layout and displays immensely. So many breathtaking things to see! I was very interested in the information about the specific fossils & minerals to find in Illinois. I appreciated the features that made some of the displays and information more accessible to children. I was there with 2 young boys, and they enjoyed it a lot and can't wait to return... especially to the gift shop & all the treasures to take home! ;)”
“Who knew picking frames could be so fun! We have had several pieces of art framed here and could not be more happy. Always respecting our budget and taking time to know us personally. True service and quality! Also my kids love their candy jar!”
