I love this Blicks. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and the store is well organized.

Great selection of creative products for the artist, calligrapher, photographer, experimenter, sculptor, both adult and children alike.

I shopped here over a year ago and remembered just how helpful they were getting me the supplies I needed for my college art class. I havent been here since but by god if I ever do need supplies, this is the place to go.

LOVE this place! Friendly service, great selection of art supplies.

They always have what I am looking for and sometimes cheaper than other stores. Very helpful staff

Nice clean store with friendly and knowledgeable staff!

Went to buy Christmas gifts for my nephew. Sales associate Amanda could not have been more helpful or nice. Highly recommended. I got lots of great stuff for the budding artist.

The layout is different than the Blick in Wheaton, and to be honest, I think its a little bit larger. The staff is equally as friendly and helpful though. Only downside is that they dont carry the sketch pad that I like (Canson XL marker paper), so I do have to rely on Michaels for that. Still, an amazing store!

Amanda and other associates took the time to help me find what I needed. Really nice store. I am definitely going back.

Still trying to figure out how this is an essential store needing to be open during a shelter in place in the state.

Love this place. The people are super nice and very helpful and knowledgeable, they have everything from pens and pencils to paints and canvas, even little fun stuff like a mini bonsai tree. Highly recommend to artists, friends of artists, and people who like little presents. They also have classes and stuff too I think

They had everything I thought I needed and more, and it was all easy to find! I always spend too much at art supply stores, and this was no exception, but I enjoyed it and came home ready to create.

A potentially good art store ended in disappointment. They overcharged me by almost double what I owed, they promised a student discount, and they also didnt give that either. If you go here, make sure you check what they are charging you before paying (especially during a sale). When I called they put me on hold immediately, and I waited for over half an hour (I am not exaggerating), then after they picked up they said they needed to get their manager... and put me on hold again. I live out of town far from any Blick stores, so it is not convenient to just go back. I was visiting family and thought Id give the store a try. I will now be telling friends and family not to go here. Dont waste your time here and just go to a Michaels or Hobby Lobby instead, it will probably be way cheaper at the other stores also.

Like a candy store for anyone even remotely creative. Good selection of supplies for a variety of artistic endeavours.Helpful employees.Give yourself time to meander the aisles and enjoy dreaming up project ideas.

Let the artist within vent...as I meander through the aisles Im amazingly spent! Shall I paint with oils, acrylic or sketch with ink, charcoal or lead? No matter, the creative genius stirs within my very soul and I am drawn by a heightened energy and imagination just like the masters I so aspire to...MICHELANGELO and his PIETA, my favorite of the renaissance! Its all there for the asking...! PAULA (a.k.a SPIRIT)

If you are into art, dont look further. Love the store. They have great variety of supplies, from paper, markers, paints, etc. Very friendly and knowledgeable stuff. Rewards program works great. Would strongly recommend this store.

Had a quick question on a gift card I had. I wanted a refund with a gift card cause I had my supplies for class already. I knew the answer to this question but wanted to ask anyways because why not try. The manager rudely answered there were no refunds. And I said that’s okay. I went over to look at some of the markers and I overheard the same manager saying I was stupid for asking that question. I kind of felt belittled and embarrassed. He did not make me feel welcomed or appreciated as a valued customer. I will definitely go find a different Blicks to shop at.

Great store with everything for art! Very intelligent personal!

They have a great selection of products which are artist grade and rge staff is very friendly and always willing to help you find what you need. I will definitely be returning here on a regular basis for all my art supplies. They also carry drafting supplies.

Great place for art supplies. Workers are knowledgeable an, friendly and helpful

Blick is THE place to get any fine art or design supplies. I used to get their paper catalog back in my design school days, and they have a nationwide delivery presence. But the store is so much fun! If you arent inspired coming into this store, somethings wrong!

I spend a lot of time at this store. I price check items as well. You may find they have a lower prices on some things compared to the internet. It depends on what youre looking for. The store is always organized and the staff are very friendly and offer help as soon as you walk in the door. They are now located at 500 Golf Rd. In the Kohls Shopping center.

I am a preferred customer. Spend $100 avg per week. Often a lot more. usually, LOVE shopping here. Not today!!! Gads! What an unpleasant experience!!!Product/price on shelf mismatched and incorrect, $15 more than expected at register. No apology.Having poster board cut and required to pay BEFORE cuts made. I had other shopping to do, oh well, the stores loss, I will finish my shopping elsewhere.Paying and unable to use debit card as credit so that I have a named payee on my statement, purchases are for business, must use as debit.Very unhappy with today’s experience. Staff was unusually unfriendly and seemed putout and just plain disinterested in being there. None of the usual wonderful staff anywhere in sight, but a hiring sign on the window. A shame really. Hope you get it back together Blick.

Good selection of quality products for artists with very helpful staff.

This store has a large variety of art supplies, good quality and affordable prices.

Wonderful place/ loved every things out here !!

Good supply. Prices a bit high, and only one cashier. They were busy. I did not wait for checkout.

Great collection. Find almost everything I was looking for and the staff was very helpful.

This place is a gem for artists. They have things you cant find at michaels. A bit more pricey but worth it to invest in good products.

Genuinely enjoy this place and checking out what supplies I need for my budding painting hobby. The staff is knowledgeable and very helpful! Plus, the music takes me back to simpler times haha. Its a great place to stop by for inspiration (by looking at all the art supplies they have) & also for a nostalgic visit to 2007. Overall, I foam at the mouth with excitement when driving by... so I highly recommend the place!

Great for mixed media. Definitely more of a painters store..amazing colors of all kinds of paints.

I TOOK A SUNDAY STROLL ON AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL SUNNY DAY...CASUALLY MEANDERING THE AISLES AND AS I WALKED TO THE REAR OF THE STORE...A SALE ON ASSEMBLED EASLES CAUGHT MY EYE! I HAD WANTED ONE FOR A LONG TIME AND LIT UP LIKE A CHILD IN A CANDY STORE...I BOUGHT A GREAT PORTABLE STURDY WOODEN ONE AND IT DOUBLES AS COUNTER BOOK HOLDER ON WHICH I KEEP MY BIBLE OPEN AND MARKED FOR THE SCRIPTURE READING OF THE DAY!!! IT ILLUMINATES THE TOP OF MY DRESSER WITH THE HOLY WORD!!! BLICK....YOUZ GUYS NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME! YOU ARE INCREDIBLE TO THIS COMMUNITY...AND TO US CREATIVE ART ENTHUSIASTS...KEEP UP THE GREAT SKILL/S THAT YOU AND YOUR STAFF EXUDE! AMEN! PAULA L BENDA (AKA SPIRIT)

The best brick and mortar art store to get your supplies. Only place thats better is their online store. This place charges more than what you pay online, that is unless you have their savings card. I have no idea why or how this works. But thats what it is. Thats the only reason I give them 3 starts.I go there only if I need something immediately and cant wait for an item to be delivered.Feel free to approach staff with questions, they are very helpful. They often appear unapproachable but theyll gladly help you out if you ask. Theyll help you find what you need. Theyll even walk you to the supplies you are looking for.They have or will be soon changing their location.

My favorite place for art and paper supplies.Everyone is knowledgeable about the many art media and many are artists as well.Prices are comparable and they have special sales often.

Unique art supplies, good quality.

This store is always worth the trip. If you decide to buy anything, become a preferred customer. This will save you 10%. They have a large supply of canvases, frames, fine art supplies and a fun assortment of small gifts, especially around Christmas time. They also have art demonstrations during the year. The staff is friendly and very helpful in answering questions. Everytime I go to Schaumburg, I stop there and never come away empty handed. It is always a pleasant surprise to see what is new. Shop at Blick. They are worth the trip.

Such a expensive store! I bought 3 pencils for 7$ and their not even good! A big rip off. Very disappointed

Love this place everyone is always friendly and helpful. I always find what I need.

Friendly and helpful staff with our art project

A lot of high quality art supplies. Staff is very knowledgeable.

Great art supplies store they have all kinds of paint, brushes, canvas, drawing supplies carving just so much to name .Staff ia always very nice here as well

As I progress as an artist, I increasingly find that this particular Blick just doesn’t carry the items needed by an actual, professional artist. The items that they choose to carry are more focused on student to lower/mid artist grade products. When the Art Institute was still in Schaumburg, this made sense. Their main customer base were the kids that went to that school. Now that they are no longer there, the area really needs an amazing fine art supply store. Blick should be it, but time and time again, I’m having to order basic supplies online because they don’t carry it in store, even though it’s on the website. Or, I’m told that I need to go downtown in order to get QoR paint, full sets of Polychromos pencils or even several kinds of paper or card stock. If it requires me going to downtown Chicago, I will absolutely order online from either Blick, Amazon or Jerry’s Artarama before I ever think about making the trek downtown for something. It’s becoming more and more difficult to purchase the art supplies I need locally, and I would much prefer to spend my money locally instead of online.

Employees are always eager to help and very knowledgeable in all art materials. Great prices and quality art supplies whether you are a novice or advanced artist

This place was nice, had some things that the downtown one didnt have. The people there were really nice

Love this store! They have everything and friendly service! Wish there was a location closer to me. Drove over an hour to get here

Everything art related. I picked up a small roll of canvas and used my white toner laser printer to create a painting that looks like real acrylic. Used the clear gel to even add brush strokes.

Whats not to love about an art store? So many colors and papers, markers, brushes, and pastels. Every aisle has something that catches the eye. Good variety of both high end and middle level materials as well as some starter items. Some clearance items as well. Its never too late to take up calligraphy and combine it with origami and encaustic.

I would give it six stars but I can only give it five.

I love this place! My only complaint... they need to open one a little closer to the Plainfield/Naperville area.

Friendly and helpful workers. For most artists they have pretty much everything you could need. Its a smaller store so they dont have some niche things though.

The staff assisted me in securing the correct item I didnt know the name of, just through my description. Good job, they really know their products!

Great art supply store

One stop shop any art supplies. Staff very friendly and helpful. Sometimes good sale going on. Been shopping here for over 10 years.

So much art stuff! Youll definitely have a better chance of finding art supplies here than at the local craft store! Prices are sometimes better too.

The staff here is really helpful and anticipates customers needs. I forgot the name of the young lady who helped me but she was in the evening shift. I needed only one big piece of tracing paper but what they had on the shelf was a pad. She then suggested a certain kind of film which works just as well and which I can buy by piece. Their products here are of good selection, perhaps the best in Schaumburg.

Not quite as extensive as I like, but workers very helpful.

Friendly staff, has a good selection of items

Best art supply store

They actually had what I needed in store! I was looking all over for a China marker aka grease pencil and they actually had multiple colors. I had no idea they even made multiple colors!Anyway, the employees here actually seemed like they wanted to help me vs the employees at certain other craft stores. I will be going back in the future.

Great selection of art materials. I could spend hours looking over the choices.

Someone was nice enough to get me a $100 gift card to this store around the holidays. This store is nice as are the employees. I would ordinarily not shop here but I am glad I did as I found it different. I can hardly wait to do my next painting as today in itself has been inspirational!

Always nice staff and everything is nice and organized!

This is the place you want to go as an artist. Skip Hobby Lobby and Micheals. The prices here are great and Blick has separate markets and refills you can buy instead of a pack.

This place and its employees are amazing. The ladies who helped me on June 2nd around 2pm were friendly and helpful. Someone give them an award.

New location had WAY more space. Can’t wait to explore and spend all the money on more brushes and canvases.

Fantastic art supply store! Awesome and super helpful staff!

Great sale, fantastic products, extremely helpful staff. It was a joy to shop here!

The location is very clean and spacious. Has a wide variety of every type of medium that one might have in mind. Staff are courteous and helpful.

Nice people good selection of art materials.

Great store well stocked Great staff

Great store, they have most things that you need in stock and the staff is always very eager to help. I purchased a drawing table here and they assisted me every bit of the way

The lady sitting at the table and the man standing next to her were very rude by staring at us when we were shopping. Almost like they were mocking us. Very mood ruining. Otherwise, the store has large selection and the guy at checkout is nice.

One of my favorite place to get art supplies. The people are helpful and knowledgeable.

Great store with mega product and selection. Helpful friendly staff.

They have an amazing selection of art supplies - pretty much everything you could need. Its a wee bit more expensive than other art supply stores and then you get the IL tax added onto that. Otherwise, if you cant find something, I bet youll be able to find it here.

Plenty of all sorts of art supplies. Cant comment on prices since I dont buy supplies much for a comparison.

Block has a great selection of everything. I mainly go there for the wide variety of spray paints. They have a ton of Montana Gold and I never have trouble finding a color I need. The customer service is great Im always helped within a minute of walking in. They recently moved to a new location on golf road for anybody that thought they closed up shop.

Always have what we need and dont need :)

Blicks has a very local feel for a chain. Its nice to have a decent art store.

Ive seen quite a few reviews harping on the customer service, so I thought Id chime in and say that Ive been here many times over the years and never had a problem. In fact, Ive received the most help from the employees here. Dont know where this comes from. Its not the tip top greatest service, but no art store Ive seen has that unless its owner operated. Get over yourselves.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff and great stock!

Once in the place they automatically think your a thief! Made my family and I very uncomfortable!! I dont think I will ever go back, and if I do I will give them a piece of my mind.!

Im not an art guy, but I buy presents there for my niece. The staff are fantastic and help me find the items on her wish list, which is huge because with their knowledge it helps me who has no clue. Huge selection of items. Bright atmosphere.

Wil took care of me, I must say he was able to address my need and do it in a friendly way without being pushy on purchasing products. Blick is a fun place to bring family and friends and the staff is super easy to talk to. I recommend this place for everyone!

This is my favorite blick store! Amazing prices, amazing array of art supplies cool staff!

This is HEAVEN for me!!! Hobby Lobby and Michaels are my go-to stores due to proximity to my house. Although, this one is about 30 minutes away it is amazing! I can just stay here and dream about my next artwork. Amazing store dedicated to top notch art materials. Loooove their selection!

Youre better off walking around with a blindfold. Employees seem to ignore me and didnt help at all. I waited 5 minutes for a piece of canvas, and left because no one ever came back to help me. Not to mention their price was ridiculous.

Everybody here is so nice and knowledgable.

Great selection just wish the store had a little more space.

A full line of two and three dimensional art supplies, most in-store. Fair prices as well.

Blick brought big box to the art material business. The store is good sized with a large selection and friendly staff. Seems to carry all the common categories of art supplies.

Staff is very helpful. Large quantities of products

The staff answered a lot of my and my friends questions and was very helpful.

Great customer service.

Some types of supplies are skimpy others have great selection

Great place for art Supplys! Great and helpful staff

Lot of collection. People are nice and friendly

This store used to be great, and have a huge selection of watercolor products, but their stock as cut down substantially, which is a real shame... They used to carry old Holland, schminke, and Qor, but they only have a few very basic paints now... Daniel Smith, Sennelier, Windsor & Newton, and of course their own brand... My main reason for going to this place was for their large water color selection--both paints and accessories, and their stock is lacking quite a bit now. As for the rest, it just feels like the Move to a smaller store was a bit of a downgrade as well. Theres less of the cool and unique items that used to be there before - but, what do I know? They might not have been selling that great. Either way, I feel like the change of store was not a good change, and Im very sad about the loss of the original location.

Large store with just about any art supplies you could need. Helpful, knowledgeable staff. Willing to special-order supplies that they dont have in stock.

Awesome and interesting things, helpful staff, only the prices are a bit higher.
