Bluefrog Imports

Question 1

Do you offer local delivery for your product?

Answer

Yes, we offer a free delivery within 10 miles of the store. Beyond a 10 mile radius we can also deliver at a cost of $1.00 per mile.

Question 2

Is your product handmade?

Answer

Yes our product is handmade. We personally make the painted signs, and some of the clothing. The rest of our inventory is sourced from Mexico, India, and Peru.

Question 3

How often do you stock the store with new inventory?

Answer

We stock the store with new product in the Spring and Fall. While in the Summer and Winter we replenish popular inventory several times a month.

Question 4

Do you make the art for all Peace Love and Pizza restaurants?

Answer

Yes we do. Each store takes anywhere from 3-5 months to complete depending on the size of the restaurant. Each store has it's own theme. All of the which revolve around the 70's era. So it's likely that every store is going to have a guitar somewhere.

Question 5

How would you guys recommend your own store to a first timer?

Answer

If you like incense, pottery, hand blown glass (especially drinking glasses), indoor and outdoor metal art, hand painted folk art, or you just enjoy seeing a unique storefront with friendly staff and more product than you could see on your first visit, you're very likely to enjoy the Bluefrog!

Question 6

Do you make custom art pieces?

Answer

We make custom art pieces of nearly any size. We make our art on metal or wood. If you would like to take a look at our Instagram of FB page, we put completed projects on the site almost daily.

Question 7

Are you the store with that crazy art car with all the dolls and toys on it?

Answer

Yes that would be us. It's a 1997 Honda Accord with over 200k miles on it. Years ago, Deidra decided to glue the broken pieces from our store on the car. She always wanted to put her art on something mobile, and when our customers started bringing in boxes of toys and other weird things to glue on we started to glue it all to the car. We use E-6000 glue. The art car is called karma. It is often relocated to different public parking places around Woodstock. Some people say it's a work of art. Some people say it's an eyesore. You can decide for yourself.

Question 8

Did you guys make the mosaic guitar on the Elm Street Event Green behind your store?

Answer

Yes we did. It took us exactly 2 months working 16 hours a day 7 days a week and we loved every single second of it.

Question 9

Do you take other people's art on consignment?

Answer

No, the limited space in our store is already at capacity with our own product.

Question 10

Where does the product come from in your store? Is it fair trade?
