I've watched my fair share HGTV shows where the designer goes to some kooky place filled with…read moretrinkets and treasures of times gone by. This place is a bit like that but mixed with the early days of Etsy. "Designers" can rent an 8x8 or bigger "storefront" to showcase their unique designs. Mostly stuff reclaimed from decades gone by and redesigned with some kind of flair. There's generally a theme to the different storefronts: women's vintage clothing, funny and lovey-dovey sayings regarding dogs and cats, plastic and silk flowers, dairy and farm, sarcastic sayings, whiskey barrel designs for the men dragged into this place, etc. My wife and I found a whimsical chip and dip bowl. It was nice and will replace one of the blander versions we have at home. Truthfully, there were quite a bit of items that were perfect housewarming gifts and gifts for people who have specific decor tastes. It's also a decent place to just kill some time browsing through all the stuff people have created to get your own creative juices flowing.

Scout & Forge is one of the coolest vintage furnishings shops in the Chicago area. I had been…read morelooking for a farmhouse table for years. Had even priced handmade options that were coming out over $3K - yipes. Then I saw my perfect table online from their shop in Long Grove. It was the perfect shape and style, and Matt and Meghan helped figure out a way to refinish it just the way I wanted. I am so thrilled and the experience was really fun and amazing. So happy with my new table - and its something that will be in my family I hope for a long time.

The service was great, and like i said it was so crowded that I accidentally knocked down a small succulent arrangement that was filled with small rocks that scattered everywhere. They were pretty nice about it and didn't even expect me to buy the damaged item. Great interesting items, I'd come back when it's less crowded.

Loved it. Lots of everything for everyone. Ended up finding something I didn't expect!! Really…read moreworth the visit

They take pride in their offerings. They have a section of used & donated goods for resale all neatly displayed and hung up. I have found 2 authentic Coach purses in great condition for only $5 each!!! Then they have a retail section in which you can grab brand new items from the shelf just like at a big box store but at a vastly discounted price. I have already purchased many items that will be under my tree. Now for the best part, they have bins which contain anything & everything. All items in the bins are a flat price based on the day of the week, Fri $10 - Sat $8 - Sun $6 - Mon $4 - Tues $2 you then decide if you want the item at $10 on Fri or take a chance to see if it's still there for $2 Tues. I have found some amazing brand new items on my last couple of Friday visits such as a $278 Michael Kors wallet, $470 foot/leg circulation machine, $169 roller skates, $60 under cabinet pullout organizer and MANY more all for $10 or less!!!
