Yarn Store Spotlight: Brainstorm Art Supply
One of the store's enduring staples is the vibrant and ethically sourced yarn from Darn Good Yarn, which has graced its shelves since the beginning. Crafted from recycled sari silk, this collection not only captivates customers with its unique story but also resonates deeply with Brainstorm Art Supply's commitment to sustainability—a core value cherished by both the store and its patrons.
Celebrating Sustainable Artistry
Upon entering Brainstorm Art Supply, visitors are greeted by a kaleidoscope of colors and textures, each aisle brimming with creative possibilities. The presence of Darn Good Yarn not only ignites creativity but also serves as a tangible embodiment of the store's eco-conscious ethos. It's a place where artistry and passion converge, inspiring both seasoned artists and newcomers alike to explore the rich tapestry of artistic expression.
One shining example of this convergence is the Trichromancy Wheel, a standout piece in the Trichromancy: Color Divination fiber arts show. Co-curated by Catmull and Fern Strong, this masterpiece intricately crafted with Sari Silk Ribbon Yarn showcases the mesmerizing interplay of color and form. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in the boundless creativity that flourishes within Brainstorm's walls.
