They had beautiful cards and other stationary along with Pittsburgh local prints. Prices were spot on. I had to restrain myself from buying up the whole store.

One comment I can make about it is that they always have exactly what I need at the right time in a synchronistic way. In other words, this shop is pure magic. Make sure you check it out the next time you are in this part of town. I feel grateful to have a shop like this which is walking from my house. As I am writing this we may possibly in the beginning states of a recession as we are in the midst of a global pandemic in March of 2020. They have an online website where you can order The shop is still open and the owner and staff are incredibly accomodating during this time. They were very responsive and fulfilled my order very quickly with the most excellent customer service you could imagine via a delivery to my house. I don't know if they do this often but keep in mind I live very close. I got those candles I desperately needed just in time for the upcoming planetary day/hour and election. So they were there when I really needed them. Make sure you support this business and other independent business like this during this time. These are my favorite kinds of shops. If I was traveler from out of town, this is the kind of place I'd look forward to going to.

To showcase this experience, I decided to make a portfolio of my work. One look at my online portfolio and the owner accused me of owning my own plant business and refused to even interview me. I have a feeling she took one look at my public profiles, and saw images of myself within my portfolio, saw I was Black and made up an excuse to not hire me. I think it's ridiculous she didn't think I'd see right through her tactic. I'm kind of delighted to see this establishment doesn't even have a 3.0 star rating on Google reviews AND YELP- someone including the observation of her blatant racism toward customers. Good. I hope they continue to get bad reviews and I hope it negatively affects their business.
