"Craftex, Greater Sharpstown. Craftex has a great offering of discounted, current books. There are aisles of titles covering art, design, architecture, fashion, interiors, gardening, cooking and more. There are also candles, silk flowers, ribbon (good grosgrain selection), garden sculptures, pots, fountains, and a massive Christmas decor annex. The rows of decoratives, fake fruit, vases, ornaments etc. are fun to browse but for us the books alone make the journey worthwhile. Note: Craftex is a bit hidden and technically outside of the Greater Sharpstown boundary. Also, they are a wholesaler and require a tax id."
