As an avid artist and woodworker living in Thika, I recently discovered Benjamin Arts Supplier, a local gem that has transformed my creative projects. Upon entering the store, I was immediately enchanted by the vibrant atmosphere and the wide array of arts supplies on display. The friendly staff welcomed me with genuine smiles, making me feel right at home.
It was a sunny afternoon around 3 PM when I decided to explore this haven for artists. I was particularly interested in purchasing some premium paints and unique woodworking tools. The first item that caught my attention was the Artisan Acrylic Paint Set, priced at just KSh 2,500. Reviewers praised the vivid colors and smooth consistency, and I couldn’t wait to experience it for myself.
While browsing, I had the pleasure of engaging with one of the attendants, a knowledgeable young man named Daniel, who was enthusiastic about sharing insights. He mentioned how many local artists had benefited from using their products, particularly the paint set, which he encouraged me to try for my upcoming canvas project.
With Daniel’s insights, I also decided to pick up a Precision Woodworking Kit for KSh 3,800. Many reviews highlighted its exceptional quality and the precision it provides for intricate designs—a significant factor for someone like me looking to tackle detailed woodworking projects. Daniel elaborated on how this kit has become a favorite among local woodworkers, further affirming my choice.
Next up was a delightful surprise: a selection of handmade art canvases, perfect for capturing my thoughts on a blank slate. I grabbed a medium-sized canvas for only KSh 1,200. I was drawn in by the craftsmanship and quality materials used, which several reviews had beautifully highlighted. The canvases are not only affordable but look great when finished, making them an excellent addition to any artist's toolkit.
Finally, I couldn’t resist checking out their sketchbooks; the thick, smooth paper is ideal for both acrylics and pencils. I picked up one for KSh 800, which I later found out was a favorite for many of my fellow artists, often mentioned for its durability and versatility.
After filling my basket with these amazing supplies, I checked out and was amazed at the overall affordability of my purchases. In total, I spent around KSh 8,300, and I felt confident I had made worthwhile investments in my artistry and woodworking journey.
As I left Benjamin Arts Supplier, I couldn’t help but feel inspired. The incredible selection, informative staff like Daniel, and the welcoming environment made my visit a memorable one. If you’re in the Thika area, I urge you to stop by and explore their offerings. Take it from me—you won’t leave empty-handed!
