Bella & Grace/The Gathering PlaceThose of you in the DFW area may already be aware of it. They were at a recent convention (the one in Denton). I went for the second time today. This was my first time meeting the owner. She is friendly and kind. She has more to offer than the last time I was there. She now has a trailer outside with more goodies. I went to look in the trailer, and apparently a wasp slipped in with me. When I noticed him on the door, I carefully opened it, and he flew out, but in my haste to make sure he didn’t just come back in, when I shut the door, I slammed my thumb in the door and gouged the skin pretty bad. She showed me where to wash my hand and then she helped me bandage it. Despite the fact that I already have a huge stash, I found plenty of lovely things to buy. If you haven’t been there yet, she offers scrapbooking and card making papers, ephemera, etc., junk journal items, wood cuts, and lots of delightful things. It’s about a 30 minute drive for me, and I thought it was definitely worth the visit. They are called Bella & Grace Creative Arts/the gathering place, located at 8850 Davis Blvd, Southlake, TX 76248 Store phone: 682-593-7027, and the owner is named Stephanie. Their hours are posted online. They aren’t open all the time like a big box store, so check the days/hours before you go at the link above.

Wow. I haven't heard of a new LSS opening up in years! That's awesome. I wish her luck!

I wish her luck.
I am no where nearby, or I would visit, if only to see real supplies in person again before buying.

This is literally 5 minutes from my house and I had no idea it was there! The inventory looks a lot like The Little Blue House which was another craft store that was in Keller and then North Richland Hills for many years before she finally closed sometime within the past 5 years. I will definitely stop by and check this out . Thanks for sharing.

I'm half a country away, so I won't be stopping by, but I wish them lots of luck!

I live in the Panhandle but go to Southlake a few times a year to see my best friend. I will have to check this place out!

Yes, please go when you come to visit your friend.
I want this place to succeed. She does conventions, too, which is smart, and hopefully helps her, too, but I think people are still finding out about this LSS.
