7605 SE 27th St #105, Mercer Island“Extremely impressed by Cascade Frames. They went over and beyond to make sure our art was done at the highest quality and that we were 100% satisfied with the end product. They were extremely knowledgable not only with the frame work, but with the artist and were able to guide us towards the most appropriate option. The owners personally drove to our house and hung the art for us. I own a small business and have the utmost respect for their follow through. I will ONLY go to Cascade Frames for now on and am excited to check out their personal stash of art as well at the shop. Thank you so much we are 100% satisfied customers.”
“I went in for a tattoo with Vox. Their line work is superb! They were also very understanding and patient when I, mid-tattoo, decided to come back to get it finished. I'm stoked to come back in a few weeks and will share when Im healed up.Services: Color ink tattoos”
“An incredible, eclectic store with great staff. They require guests to wear a mask and are setting such a good example! It's so frustrating to see people get tired of being covid aware so seeing how easy it is for them to take precautions is so refreshing. Thanks for being a safe place for the weird and at-risk!”
“This is a magical and sacred space that we're fortunate is lovingly held and shared. I hope that generations to come value and treat not only the physical space but even more importantly the humans who are doing the work VERY well. The transformative and healing work and energy produced at WA Na Wari are like none other.”
“We had an awesome time here! I signed myself and my fiancée up for a private lesson, and we will 100% sign up for another in the future. Our instructor, William, was VERY nice, helpful, and professional, and he gave us a ton of hands-on experience. We had 3 hours, and we ended up making 5 pieces (a paperweight, two glasses, a vase, and an ornament, in that order). William gave us pointers and ideas for cool designs and color combos for our pieces. It was obvious that he, as well as the others working there, loved the art. We started out quite nervous about messing something up, but he was truly a great teacher who got us to relax and fully enjoy the process (even when you make a mistake). Also, we never felt like we were ever rushed. Even with just about 10 minutes left in our time block, William asked if we wanted to do another quick piece (the ornament). We were even more hands-on with this last simple piece, which felt really great because of how much we learned. This experience was worth every penny spent, and I am so happy that I found this place.”
“Wedding for our daughter. The space worked very well for our 130 guests. This area of Seattle has been cleaned up ( thanks to the new mayor) but still not like a winery wedding. Some homeless yelling at people walking past. The ally was rented but not used. The lighting and tables were not inviting out there.All in all a good setting for our family to celebrate!”
“The use of negative space was awe inspiring. I think different uses of color & texture makes art much better to enjoy differently than just cruising to each piece.”
“It's an erotic art gallery. I haven't been in too many but the folks here were really nice, and the art was interesting even when it wasn't a swipe right for me.”
“Parklane has some beautiful and interesting art. Uniques pieces. We bought some handmade jewelry, that is unique and one of a kind. Not overly priced. Right in the middle of the action in Kirkland.”
“A Seattle institution, founded in 1976, and located in a charmer of a brick and mortar in the historic Georgetown neighborhood, sharing opposite sides of a space with Georgetown Records, Fantagraphics is a great place to visit! Full of art,history and just plain fun publications, readers of all ages will find something cool.”

158 28th Avenue, Seattle“I have collected Steuben Glass for 50 years. Occasionally chips and deep scratches occur. One of the most valuable of my pieces suffered a major chip at the corner. It is one of a pair, so the chip really affected both pieces. I could not see how this damage could be repaired. I searched the Web for Steuben repair and found Michael Bokrosh's studio. Our conversation gave me great confidence that he would find a solution.He told me exactly how to pack the piece. A few weeks later Michael called to describe his solution, which I didn't completely understand until another few weeks, when the piece arrived. It's hard to describe what he did without a photo, but I was amazed and actually thrilled. He created matching angles that not only removed the chip, but improved the design. Without comparing it to its twin, not even a specialist could tell that it had been repaired. It looks great when placed next to its twin. Michael's work is equal to Steuben's own design and execution. His Studio probably looks a little like Steuben's. I am examining each piece in my collection to find any imperfection, any at all, to send to Michael to make as good as new. One can engage and trust Michael to erase most any flaw in a piece of crystal. He must have spent at least two days on my project. His charge was entirely reasonable. This is my first posting to thank and commend any artist or indeed any person who has done work for me. Thank you for reading this testimonial.”
“The woman Mejuri (spelling?) is so kind and helpful! They have a great selection of pieces to paint and everything is clean and organized!!! 10/10 will come back :)”
“If you live or visit Seattle you have the chance to see the gallery of one of the top blown glass artists in modern times. From what I understand Lino splits his time between Seattle and Murano, arguably two of the top places for glass art on the world. In the gallery you will see ~75 pieces that are all museum worth art. Worth a visit to downtown just to see his work.”
“If you're on the hunt for a combination of high-quality craftsmanship and originality, look no further than The Handmade Showroom. A massive selection of PNW goodies for everyone from coffee connoisseurs to mushroom enthusiasts and everything in between. A focus on sustainability is evidenced by their many products dedicated to sustainable living. The shop is beautiful and I could get lost in it for hours, with no shortage of inventory for all types of shoppers.”
“Equinox Studio had an Open House for Xmas presents. I enjoyed seeing the numerous Artists, Metal works, Iron Art for Burning Man. I saw Nobi and The Force perform too. They were at the Summer Open House too. There are more Artists here than in Pioneer Sqr's Artwalk here in Georgetown. They got some crowds but more people go to Pioneer Sqr monthly. There were a few Food Teucks there. They had two Bonfires. But at least it was not rainy hard to watch the Live Entertainment.”
“A boutique store with Japanese trinkets and art of all kinds for different budgets. Bought cute prints from local Japanese artists. A store for all ages-my kids loved it too!”
“Went for an intimate local show with Tobias theOwl in this beautiful gallery. Owner is warm and welcoming and I will definitely be back!(It's also 4 buildings down from my favorite tapas place-added bonus) The art was a variety of 50 artists over 50 and I loved pieces from each artist I saw! Gorgeous backdrop for music <3 Thank you for sharing your space with local artists! ?”
“Wonderful gallery in the heart of Pioneer Square. Featuring a variety of artists from around the globe with paintings, glass art and mixed media. Impressive layout and welcoming staff. Exhibiting artists often have a meet and greet evening. Next to transportation and not far from restaurants, cafes and deli's. Highly recommend!”
“Apex has done an incredible job with all of my clients. They can look at a peice of art and know exactly the frame style it needs. They take care of arranging and installing art perfectly. My clients are always thrilled.”
“I had a crisis when a framed gift was delivered to me at a nearby hotel about 90 minutes before the meeting and I opened the package to find the glass shattered and the wooden frame dinged and scratched. I found New Dimensions on Yelp and immediately headed over and explained my situation. I was not surprised at all to hear that this normally would take a day or so, and even if expedited would take at least a couple hours to re-frame. So I was thrilled when Jade called me back in about an hour and I was able to pick it up, take it to my meeting, and present the gift. I was in a real tough spot, and New Dimensions went the extra mile for me. I found the price very reasonable, especially considering the quality and speed that the work was completed in.”

4548 University Way NE, Seattle“This place is a gem & staple for U District culture and the city of Seattle.If you want to find a diverse array of records, tapes, posters etc., I highly recommend this shop. I definitely want to check out their Open Mic.The people who run the place are extremely knowledgable and passionate about helping you find what you are looking for.Every time I visit I'm reminded about things I had long forgotten, especially about local music history & things I am passionate about both in music and film.”
“Original Artwork will always be expensive.. prints vary…I imagined this place a little bigger but overall 4/5 . Maybe a 5 if they switched out artists. Online info of artist and paintings on display would be nice.”

2307 1st Ave, Seattle“I love this place! Used to live a few blocks from it, and then discovered that one of my instructors in fashion design school worked there, so I started visiting whenever I walked by. The owner is a very cool friendly lady from Texas. Down in the basement there are four (five?) on-site designers, and everything sold here was designed and produced locally (either Seattle or Portland). Good selection of jewelry and accessories as well. Comfy dressing room with a couch.”

4355 190th Ave SE, Issaquah“The craftsmanship and artistry from Mike Holberg is unmatched, especially for the price point. I started collecting his glass pumpkins just two years, and I cannot wait to grow my little glass pumpkin patch with a new addition next season. You'll definitely appreciate the attention to detail in all of his pieces.”

1003 1st Ave, Seattle“Really cool artwork! Interesting perspective. The artist is a super awesome guy and helped my boyfriend and i get custom hoodies with his artwork on them! He was even able to ship them to our house!”
“I usually come here on 2nd Fridays for SoulElectro house event for some of the best soulful house music this city offers. Terrific cocktails, plenty of space to groove & move. A winner on CapHill.”

212 3rd Ave S, Seattle“I have come to expect the unexpected from the Greg Kucera Gallery, though I expect find my favorite artists here! Awesome space and supremely focused on what is important - the art. Easily the highlight of my trips to Seattle!”
“Really great exhibit with kindergartners drawings imagined into clay by high schoolers. The lady working was a real gem, good natured and we all left with positive vibes.”
“Absolutely AMAZING destination for anyone who CANNOT be pleased with a standard gift! Handmade goods priced with the artists and the customers in mind, I don't think I could recommend this place MORE! Everything is kept clean, stocked, and the workers don't hesitate to let you know about the stories attached to each artist, if you want to take the step outside of just a "plain" shopping experience. Their website is gorgeous too! But the store experience is worth it, if only because you can see and hold and learn about the pieces in a really cool way. Absolutely 10/10 unique and irreplaceable part of Pacific Place!”
“Sensational in every aspect. .....but I'm prejudiced...Im the owner. We have a 40 year celebration coming up and hope to continue to enjoy a business that we love. We are grateful for all the wonderful customers who have become friends and continue to share their good experiences with their friends. We feel badly about the one bad review and realize it was a bad experience which we still regret having happened (several years ago and Im still concerned).”
