I get to be the FIRST review? Really?! Great! I'm not a friend of the owner -- I'm a FOR REAL, bonafide, categorical, certified STRANGER off the STREET! :)
OK. This magical store and it's caring proprietor/staff provided me with a most wonderful shopping experience on a Wednesday afternoon during low season. It's most carefully "curated" with items of tasteful and fascinating sorts. The displays are so thoughtful, sweet and engaging! The price points? TERRIFIC! You can very affordably snag some truly wonderful pieces here...jewelry...vintage clothing...nostalgic objet's d'arte...hometown goodness. Perhaps most of all? The HOSPITALITY shown to me during my visit. The owner remarked on how "the pieces find HER" -- and not she-finding-the-inventory. That is very special. Pat runs a wonderful business that is over-flowing with good, old-fashioned hospitality and mercantile-quaintness -- but with a VERY HIP twist, as well! I found 2 vintage pairs earrings, a precious little heart locket, a cottage-flair mini-vase and pure pewter antique serving spoon. My gal-pal found an authentic Nordic sweater with metal crafted buttons. The place is bursting with unique and thoughtful things. I WILL BE BACK again...and again...when I come visit Siskiyou County. THANKS, PAT (and Victoria too -- who took out her lint roller to helpfully attend to some pet hairs on my personal jacket). read more
