The bright and airy space houses multiple artists' and seller's work (booths) so while the prices may seem high, the majority of the pieces are handcrafted and unique. If you can't afford to buy the finished product, Pigeon in the Parlour is one of three Annie Sloan chalk paint retailers in the Michigan area and hosts introductory furniture painting classes twice a week. My mom took the 3-hr weekday class ($95) and LOVED it.. now we feel confident to make our own masterpieces but will definitely be back to "PIP" for all our home accents needs :)

Where "shabby chic" meets "french country" with a dash of bohemian charm thrown in for good…read moremeasure. This is an incredibly cute shop with so much to see, housed in what once was a stately old home whose charm is still apparent as soon as you walk through the door. Interested in clothing and accessories? Check. Love the "shabby chic" look? Check. Hoping to pick up a piece of whimsical home decor? Check. Looking for vintage finds? Check. This quaint, two-story home decor shop seems to hit a home run in many areas. The only real faults I found were with the prices on things like clothing and jewelry (especially the clothing). I don't want to be critical, but the clothes in their "Ragg's Boutique" were pretty basic numbers from a bunch of no-name designers at inflated prices. I mean, $160 for a plain tunic? Come on. This isn't New York or Chicago, it's Holly. I know these types of shops have a high overhead and all, but the prices were a bit out of touch. How many people are willing to spend $160 on something that they can easily pick up for a fraction of the price somewhere else? Also, I thought most of the clothes were kind of "matronly" (sorry) or too nondescript for my taste. I found the bulk of it to be second-rate designs at first-rate prices. It just wasn't my cup of tea, but it might be someone else's. It just seemed mildly pretentious to me. As for the rest of the store, there was a lot to see, including on the second story, which is very cramped and narrow, so not too many people can comfortable shop up there at one time- just saying. If you turn around too fast, you risk knocking something over. I know, I did just that! It was incredibly crowded up there, with vintage finds peeking out at me at every turn. It might be a bit too crowded, in fact. The walkway is tight and the old wooden flooring uneven, so take note. Despite the tight squeeze, I found plenty of "shabby chic" style decor, which I just so happen to love, from vintage signage and antique doorknobs rescued from old homes to painted tiles and upcycled windows from 19th century buildings and more. Some of it was surprisingly well-priced, while other pieces were in the higher-end range. No doubt because they were from different shop vendors (Pigeon in the Parlour houses several individual vendors), which probably accounts for the wide ranges in pricing. Some of the more traditional line of home decor accents were very reasonably priced, including candles, soaps, wall art, knick knacks, dishes, etc. I especially loved a line of metal dragonfly hooks and some cute resin bunny statues. We picked up some candles and soaps, but I left without that dragonfly hook and now I regret it. Since chalk painting is all the rage right now, I found a fairly large line of reasonably-priced chalk paints and a new "salt wash" mix, including some small starter kits. My husband and I both do a lot of DIY projects, so we were interested and took a gander at what they had in stock. The lady waiting on us told us that we can order from them, even if we aren't in the store, since we don't live in Holly. That was nice, I thought. She talked up this new "salt wash" additive and showed us how it worked with paints and gave us a brochure to read up on it. I have to admit, it looked intriguing, so I think we might order that sometime soon. As for the customer service, it veered between good and slightly odd. I noticed one of the employees following other people (not me) around the store in an annoying, clingy fashion. I couldn't tell if she was worried they were shoplifters or if she was just heavily invested in making a sale. Who knows? Nonetheless, the lady that waited on me seemed pleasant and knowledgeable, if not overtly friendly. Like I said, this store has a lot of interesting pieces and the unique character of the building only enhances the shopping experience. I even signed up for email list for customers to receive updates on products and sales.

It was an immediate win when their sweet pup Oliver ran to the door to greet me and patiently waited for pets and belly rubs. I could have spent all day there just for him but the selection of beautiful fabrics pulled me back to the shop. They have a wonderfully curated selection of fabrics, notions, patterns and machines. I'm not currently in the market for a new machine but it seemed like they make it very possible to test drive all of their options. I loved seeing all the projects around the shop as well. The owner is truly such a friendly and approachable person. Im new to the sewing world so I asked for her advice on how much fabric I might need for a quilted vest. She took the time to look up a pattern and offered their suggested requirements. It's a simple gesture but that extra moment made a huge impact on me. I will definitely be back in store and most likely spend online as well. Prices are very affordable for the brands they offer. I've noticed some online shops charge a bit more for newer Ruby star collections and exclude them from any sales. That wasn't the case here, they had very competitive pricing and a nice selection of sale cuts and bolts. Im so excited to have a shop in Michigan that checks all my boxes of being welcoming, inclusive and having a great variety of products.

I couldn't resist.. lol.. The prices were very good, particularly on furniture, and the selection seemed unique and varied. Everything from vintage goods, art glass, ceramics, paintings and furniture to vinyl records, clothing, jewelry, shoes, handbags, kids toys, books, and handmade chocolate. The overall collection seemed carefully curated and well displayed. It was like strolling through a small boutique with a vintage market bohemian vibe. It felt like the items were carefully selected and arranged for maximum impact to catch the shopper's eye. Prices were more than fair, selection was both unique and varied and service was beyond reproach.
