about Zinnia:

Zinnia, located within the Mission-Meridian District, offers a feast for the eyes - and hands - for patrons who like to be artsy, crafty, and imaginative. It offers all kinds of materials for scrapbooking, sewing, book arts, collage, and mixed-media creations. The store's walls and ceiling are decked out in fantastic, wildly colorful objects d'art.

The doodad table is great fun to peruse: Small objects like charms, beads, plastic toys, old coins, and tiles serve as perfect embellishments for any kind of art. The items are very affordable - some as little as ten cents - so kids love bringing in their pennies and choosing "little somethings" to take home.

The store also offers a range of arts-and-crafts-related books and magazines, tools, ribbon, paper, rubber stamps, seasonal/holiday decorations, and beautiful for-sale items made by local crafters.

Zinnia regularly hosts workshops for teens and adults, which provide hands-on, relaxed instruction in creating items like sock puppets, mini quilts, collages, tin houses, or soldered charms. Check the website for workshop schedules.

tips:

Because the owner of the store, Tamara, is also a mother, the store has a "family first" schedule, meaning that at times, parenting responsibilities take priority over the store's posted hours. It's best to call first, especially on weekends, to inquire about hours.
