Yes, Windsor Buttons has Buttons Galore. Buttons you probably didn't even know you needed, they've got them. If you're the type to do any kind of mending, you need buttons, trust me. But I don't go...

I don't know yarn, but I know what I like. I walked into Windsor Button after calling ahead to see if they had velcro (they did). I did a quick circuit of the densely packed urban craft store,...

I really like the shop a lot, and I've been there a couple of times for sewing notions. They've Heard The Bell Toll and have a huge stock of yarn, which is a blessing. And their stock of buttons is...

Now that I've picked up crocheting, I love this place even more. For me knitting and crocheting supplies = crack and yarn = heroin. I'm a mess... and I ain't never not going to no rehab

I usually buy my yarn back home in California at my local Michael's, and if I'm feeling fancy (or if my mom is buying...) I hit up a nicer yarn store. I went here today hoping to find good cheap yarn...

I've seen a lot of reviews on this site and others that say "all the staff are rude and unfriendly." I have to disagree. There is one distinctly unpleasant staff member who has somehow managed to keep her job...

Is this really the best craft store the city has to offer? Windsor Button reminded me of Woolworth's. There was a good amount of yarn, but my own LYS in Nashua has a way better selection, not to...

Staff are friendly, but not overbearing. Button selection is great, but they need "yarn" in their name as well. The selection is the biggest I've seen in the city. Everything from the Red Heart and...

If you are looking for buttons, it's clearly the place to go. If you are looking for a ton of different yarns, great pattern books, and a wall of ribbons, it's definitely the place to go. However,...
