We visited the new Flax Art store in Oakland. It is not far from another new (to Oakland) establishment that we also love, Paris Baguette. They are located a few blocks from Broadway and the Oakland city center and both very worth the little walk to visit. The new Flax location is in a spacious warehouse building, just as vast as their last location in San Francisco. It brings me great joy to walk around and see and touch all of the art supplies. Clover and I love to look at the handmade papers and we bought sheet that was covered in magnolias. We also got her a pack of new markers and glue sticks. I am certain we will find an excuse to return again soon. ^_^
