My idea for a crafty store in Toronto that I've been thinking of making a reality is to have a workshop based store. It would sell all those great crafty tools and bits from glues to scissors to felt and pipe cleaners and also have a workshop space.

I love your idea of having a space for artists to share their created items. I was thinking of the backend side of it for those that want to craft. My thought was to have many things available for free use and then pay per use on items that you put in your project, so kind of like a bead store but crafty.

I think that a lot of people just don't have the space or desire to get all of the tools together and have boxes of fabric and collage stuff lying around, Crafting It (what I'd like to call the store) would have all that, plus a great workshop environment and items that could be bought for home.
