Craft Service is an art and craft store in Rochester that stocks many fine and mysterious supplies. They have a particularly thorough selection of beading supplies, tile (and mosaic material), basket-weaving material, and adhesives. Along with quite a bit of everything else! Models, stickers, tools, all in a dark and woody store tucked in next to the old Mamasan's restaurant. Highly recommended by Heather, particularly if you are in the sort of mood where you don't know what you want to make and are looking to find some sort of tool or material you've never seen before.

Some hate it, some love it(I'm one of 'em), but all are mystified... —AlyssaFoos

Craft Service is awesome, they have a great selection of leather working hardware, supplies and tools. Whenever I want to make somebody a unique gift, I go to Craft Service to get all the things I need. The shop is a true time capsule, from kits that were discontinued in the seventies to the turn of the century mechanical calculator that prints the receipts.

Just make sure you bring cash, they don't accept cards. —JustinSchmidt
