DH and I are headed to Tacoma and Gig Harbor area next week and I would love to pick up more copics. Does anyone know any where that sells them?
I hope so
The only retailer that I know of that sells Copics is located in Southcenter, which is about 30 minutes north of Tacoma/Gig Harbor. The name of the store is called Impress. They only carry the Ciao markers, and they have a limited selection of colors. But if you just want to see them in real life, they have them there. Bellevue Art and Frame carries the Sketch markers, but they are $5.99 per marker, and as far as I know they rarely have them on sale. Bellevue is about 45 minutes northeast of Tacoma. If I think of anywhere else, I'll repost. Hope this helps!
I will try and get DH to go to Bonney lake's Ben Franklin. I called and they have a few individual markers. I hope it will be worth it.
Is that a good store? Do they have sales?
I've never been to the Ben Franklin in Bonney Lake, but I love the one in Monroe (near me). I subscribe to their website, so I get a coupon emailed to me once a week. Here is the coupon for this week: http://www.bfranklincrafts.com/EmailCustomerApp-BL.html. Here is a link to the website if you want to subscribe yourself: http://www.bfranklincrafts.com/HomeBL.html. You'll have lots of fun at this store, I guarantee!!
A Muse carries the Copic Originals but the just moved to their new location and the retail portion is not open yet. I'm not sure if it will be open by next week. They are in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle. Sorry, but I'm not very familiar with anthing in Gig Harbor or Tacoma.
I have bought some Ciaos at Impress...they don't have a lot so it really depends on what colors you need. I haven't seen any at BF but it is a FABULOUS store...lots of other goodies!!
I know that the Monroe Ben Franklin has Sketch Copics, similar to the display that you would normally find at Hobby Lobby. I'm not sure about whether or not Ben Franklin Bonney Lake has Copics, but I would assume that they carry the same kind of items.
