I absolutely love art stores. Back in high school, I had an obsession with Curry's and would constantly go there to buy markers and pens.
My friend introduced midoco to me when we were walking around in the Bloor/Bathurst area and I absolutely fell in love. Not only do they have art supplies, but they have a wide variety of blank books, and even mugs! I bought myself an awesome "MyCuppaCoffee" mug the last time I was there.
Not only this, they sell Lomography cameras!
