Although I didn't find what I was looking for, I found many reasons to return. Considering it's a bunch of different vendors you really never know what you'll find. Each section is curated different and the prices range depending on the vendor. I took one star off because no staff acknowledged me on my visit even though multiple workers walked by me.

There is an eclectic selection of goods being sold and is a nice place to browse, as long as you are not looking for anything specific.

Just came here tonight with a couple of friends, and we stayed for more than 2 hours because there…read morewas SO much to look at! We really loved this place and had a great experience! Upon walking in, you see tons off different boutiques sectioned off into different areas. There are handcrafted crafts and gifts from all different vendors, and no matter who you are, you're bound to find something you like, including candles, clothes, sports, food, jewelry, home decor, etc. Prices vary by product and vendor, so of course some vendors will be more expensive than others. Some even sell name-brands like Marc Jacobs. For the most part, I think prices were pretty fair! Not only were the products great, but so were the workers. One of the men who was stocking found out that I love penguins, so he was showing me penguin-themed items. He was nice, and we all kept laughing. Also, when we were checking out, both cashiers were extremely personable. One checked us out, and the other wrapped some of the more fragile items, which I appreciated. The cashier who checked us out absolutely loved us and had a great conversation with us about how we all had so much in common with her. When it comes to location, the building is within a strip mall, and they have tons of parking and other popular shops around. Overall, my friends and I all said we would for sure return to the store! Apparently, vendors normally update their booths every few weeks unless they're out of state, so we will definitely come back soon to see the new stock. Since it is Christmas time, the store was FULL of Christmas and holiday decor. I loved the atmosphere because of this! There were a few bare booths where no vendors were anymore, so it seems as though a couple of vendors left. *If you're an entrepreneur, I'd definitely look into a booth here!*

It's almost like walking into a Spencer's but finding all the gifts that you were looking for without being too inappropriate by walking into the back of the store. I absolutely love the cards that were featured here and they were exactly what I'm looking for, for many special occasions coming up. I spent nearly an hour and a half in the store! There are many incredible finds that you can expect to see here. If you've never been to the area this should be the first stop. Highly recommend checking this place out

A few years ago, I saw a friend post a picture of a store with an insane Jellycat selection, so I…read moremessaged her and had to know where, and she told me about Fairytales in downtown Lombard. I have since probably purchased over 20 Jellycats from here, it's my favorite way to do so because I love supporting a local business and this shop is genuinely just the best. Outside of Jellycats, I've gotten Hello Kitty Blue Sky Ceramics, an Allen designs clock, Christmas ornaments, a lazy Susan, and baby gifts. Although I don't live in the area, anytime I'm out towards Oak Brook I ALWAYS make sure to stop by Fairytales to see what's new. Unfortunately due to the immense popularity of Jellycats, their stock has declined significantly which is a bit of a bummer, but it seems to be out of their control from my understanding. Everyone I've interacted with here has been incredibly sweet, I've done waitlist orders (I was able to get the large snow dragon jellycat this was as well as some of the rare Christmas ornaments!), and I've done a few online pickup orders as well. Each time my items are packaged beautifully and I feel so special walking out with the super high quality, beautifully branded Fairytales bag. Downtown Lombard truly has a gem, if it was closer to me I'd frequent a lot more, but it just makes my trips even more special when I do get to stop by.

Ok, so we had gone to breakfast at Millie's and we were curious about what was right next door! I…read morereally didn't know what to expect. To be honest, I was thinking I was going to walk in and be greeted by a whole bunch of creepy dolls. The kind that give you nightmares. The porcelain ones with the eyes that move when you move, haha (nervous laugh), if there was a doll like that I'd make sure to destroy every single one. I just hate dolls. I never had any as a child and my children will never have them either. Ever heard of the Annabelle Higgins doll? No? Google that shit, creepy as heck! Sooooo, anyways, we walk in and it's just a fun little shop with knick knacks and decorative items for your home. There was this big antique wheel and bird house that I wanted but it wasn't for sale. Waa waa. I liked the wine accessory section, perfect gifts for those wino friends of yours. I'm sure that if you're looking for something cutesy to give someone, this is the place. Not a big store, just a Kozy little one. ;)

I wanted to like this place, I really did, but after two visits I'm done…read more My first visit was back in January so I was unfamiliar with the ordering process. When I approached the counter no one acknowledged me so I said hi and an employee said hello back but didn't offer to take my order, so I assumed I needed to order at the tablet which is located before the seating and counter area. While placing my order, multiple people walked past me and ordered at the counter, so that was a little confusing. Those people were eating inside, though, so I thought maybe you need to use the tablet for take-out and order at the counter for eating in. To be honest, I'm still not sure. I assume if a person approaches the counter the employee should do more than just say hello and keep working, especially when I had to say it first, so that was a bit off-putting. I had perused their menu before my trip and wanted to try the breakfast pizza but when I saw it in person it looked old and dry so I decided to try the rice crispy treat instead. Well, it was so hard I had to microwave it when I got home just to be able to eat it. While it didn't taste stale, I don't think you should serve a rock hard rice crispy to someone and ask $4.50 to boot. All that said, the iced latte I ordered was exceptionally good, so I kept that in mind for the future. A few days ago I went back and ordered the same exact latte (via their app this time), just in a larger size. It tasted nothing like the one in January. Not only that, but after taking a sip and inquiring about getting some packets of sugar, I was told there were some around the corner from the counter. All I saw was fake sugar in packets and Sugar In The Raw in an open container with a spoon. Maybe I missed where the regular sugar was, I don't know. The whole area felt really disorganized and dirty which was a turn-off. For what they charge I expect fresher food and a consistent drink experience. I want to support small businesses but this place makes that hard. I won't be back.

Enesco is known in the industry for its 25 years of success with the Precious Moments porcelain figurine line of products. I was given a few porcelain figurines as a child. I had one for my birth month. When I first started purchasing these it was from the store Things Remembered. I purchased the porcelain figurine for my daughter with her birth month. We still have many of these in boxes wrapped in newspaper from moving so much. This Xmas my daughter purchased the Jim Shore wooden figurine of Snoopy. Jim Shore has an open ended contract with Enesco. I love his work. I recommend you visit the website and see the available items. Their products make wonderful personal gifts. The names Precious Moments and Things Remembered certainly continue to apply to their merchandise.
