“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.
Art is knowing which ones to keep.”

We couldn’t agree more.
Except that we’re really all about the mistakes part.

You know...

Those happy accidents that
come about when you
run out of fabric, misread a pattern,
or buy the “wrong” tool.

In our experience, it’s THAT place -
where lofty vision meets temporarily sobering reality and
a new solution must be found -

that’s where the art (and the fun)
is most often uncovered.

To help you along your creative way,
we have combed the globe
to bring you the highest quality, yummiest
and most unique materials for your work.
The latest books, the quirkiest fabric, the unexpected
do-dads that you never knew you had to have.

Come visit us at Once Around and see for yourself. :-)

Have an espresso (or a cup of tea),
browse, daydream and find inspiration
for your next great
“mistake.”
