The owner is absolutely lovely and the space they've curated is very inclusive, diverse, and exciting. There's everything from crotchet pokemon to psychedelic paintings. I loved learning that artists can apply to have their items there The shop is quite small, but you can spend a lot of time shopping - either taking in all the art on the walls or flipping through art in bins. It has a nice intimate environment that's welcoming and friendly I also like that it's off the beaten path in the heights. I wouldn't have found it had I not been driving by, but I'm so glad I did! It's part of a shopping center with a few other unique shops, so it does share parking with those. That being said, I got a parking spot right in front of the door (midday on wednesday). I'm very excited to go back and spend some more time checking things out. They also do themed art shows which is neat!

As small as it seems there is about a million different types of products in here including jewelry, wall art, and home decor! You for sure have to take a few laps around the store and look at every angle to make sure you saw it all. I was in a bit of a rush when I was here so i definitely will have to come back. I felt very welcomed and appreciated the kind energy of the employee! It had a few parking spots out front but I'm sure there's street parking nearby if it fills.

Best way to describe this place is a thrift store for crafting. Discovered this place while looking…read morefor somewhere to buy yarn near downtown, and we were surprised by the variety of items on sale and the pricing. You can find almost anything in here: yarn, fabric, kids books, cookbooks, misc cards, seashells, school supplies, cds, stickers, ink pads, and a lot more. It's organized in sections but it's a lot to take in. Most things were sold by weight or number of items which was very affordable. Most expensive thing was the yarn which was $12/pound, but everything else we bought was less than $2 each. If you took the time, you could find some steals. I got a brand new jacket for my dog for $1. I'll definitely be coming back here.

The unique store name coincides with the type of products you can expect to find here. From earrings, to clothes, to incense, to salt combs, to umbrellas and even kitchen ware! I came in here with a gift card and was pleasantly surprised with the plethora of items offered. I ended up with a super cool decorative plate that has Texas and various Texas items on it for $25 (it looked ceramic from the front but actually made from material similar, but much much sturdier, than a paper plate), a pair of earrings (in the shape of Texas and the Texas State Bird), and a little postcard. If you're walking by, it would be worth your while to check this place out if you're looking for a gift - but the prices are a bit on the higher end, since these items look more handmade than mass produced.

Sad because the items there are cute!

Upon…read moreentering, It resembled an antique shop, however as I continued to explore, I realized it was much more! Great place to check out when holiday shopping or looking for gifts. They have a unique variety of merchandise that you won't typically find in your big retailer stores. They carry apparel, hats, kitchen goods and other home necessities. They also have a candle bar. It's interesting because we did a hot sauce tasting at a food event, and ever since we had been looking for this specialty hot sauce (Bravado). They just so happened to be carrying it at their store so we purchased some bottles. Staff were friendly. Cool place!

They have an extensive section of cocktail accessories, whiskey glasses, spices, barbecue sauces, candles, hand salves, soaps and leather items, in addition to men's clothing and hats, and many, many other things. Two of my close friends had a housewarming party earlier this weekend and they both are big old fashioned drinkers. I ended up picking up some stainless steel dice shaped whiskey stones and a Oaxacan old fashioned cocktail mix to complement their bar cart which they ended up loving. Whether you have a specific type of item in mind or just want to browse, Manready Mercantile has a huge variety of items that you won't find anywhere else. Aside from their unique items, Manready Mercantile really goes above and beyond to help create an experience that connects the customer with their products. They have a custom hat bar with a variety of patches that can be prepared just to your liking and a candle bar where guests are treated to an old fashioned while making their very own candle to take home. While I haven't done it myself, this seems like a great idea to do with a date, some girlfriends, or even your mom or dad. They also do a great job keeping up with their website if you want to order from the comfort of your couch or get a little preview of current inventory before heading into the store. The staff are all very helpful in describing their products and offering recommendations. Also, check out their instagram account. I've been following them for years and the owner Travis will often take followers on a behind the scenes look at how they make some of their products and all the work that goes into creating the brand.

Because it's actually cheaper than the big H for some things, and even when it's the same price as H or a little more expensive, there's a lovely element that you are keeping your money within the Houston Community, which is why we like to come here when we need Hallmark card stuff, instead of going to Hallmark.

I even had to ask to be checked out when they saw that I was ready to check out. The last time I was there, I noticed the staff was unfriendly but this time was the last straw. The vibe was very off putting and I'm starting to wonder if they only treat melanated people this way. Even though I like the store, I will not be returning. UPDATE: After reading other reviews, I see that what I felt was justified. They do not treat melanated people well. If you only want a certain demographic of people shopping in your store, then just say that. I will be sure to spread the news because apparently people have been complaining for over 6 years and you still haven't changed. Just put a sign on the door and be done with it.
