Hi!
Wondering where I can find some art supplies stores near Espoo or Helsinki?
I want to do some refurbishing and painting. Just general craft and hobby stuff.
Thanks!

Re: Art/Craft/Deco Stores
Are you doing arts and crafts i.e. hobby stuff and painting, or refurbishing the house/apartment/furniture?
Arts & painting:
art supplies: https://www.tempera.com/contents/fi/d3.html Uudenmaankatu, Hki
http://tuubi.com/yhteystiedot/ Lönnrotinkatu
Arts and crafts:
https://www.hobbypoint.fi/yhteystiedot Kamppi
https://www.sinelli.fi/ at kauppakeskus Itis
And if want general crafts, cardboards, papers, accessories, paints, etc, there are several good and cheaper online shops (also those above have online sales), some located outside Helsinki. Most hobby crafters buy their stuff in the online shops, as the deliveries are often reasonable, fast and the products are cheaper there. Or, if not in a hurry, Wish.com and Alibaba online shop has loads of crafts supplies - a lot cheaper than in Finland, just may take several weeks to arrive.
for example, look for askartelu, askartelukauppa, askarteluliike, käsityöliike, käsityökauppa, and for more arts/paints included, search for taidetarvikkeet

And if looking for household paints for refurbishing and renovations, look for hardware & home improvement stores, 'rautakauppa' like:
https://www.puuilo.fi/epages/puuilo.sf/ ... Categories Seem to have a store in Vantaa and Tuusula.
https://www.bauhaus.fi/ - one in Espoo
[urlhttps://www.k-rauta.fi/rautakauppa/myym%C3%A4l%C3%A4t[/url] These are everywhere.. many hear Hki-espoo-vantaa too. They tend to be more expensive than bauhaus or puuilo, in general.
Or paint shops (often have also wallpapers etc.), like Decoväri, RTV, Värisilmä, Maalarimestarien Oy - google for maalikauppa + location for a good list with links.
