The window displays caught my eye with interesting knickknacks, and I had to stop in. My window browsing quickly turned into a mini shopping trip. I found the eclectic mix of Christmas ornaments to home decor to personal beauty products and more to be just what I needed for some last minute gifts. Prices are what you would expect at a smaller, local boutique shop, but everything I looked at was quality and worth it. The staff were helpful and friendly. I enjoyed my little impromptu visit. If I'm in town again, I won't hesitate to drop in and see what new seasonal items they have for unique gifts!

They had some curated kitchen items that would be perfect for gift giving, other odds and ends, and some really wonderful perfumes from Oliver Fragrance Co. They had their bougie sticks and the full size bottles! I bought one of the bougie sticks (Sunset 57) which smells divine and the scent actually lasts throughout the day. Best of all, I purchased the bougie stick for $24 and the manufacturer's website have them for $22 which isn't a ridiculous price difference and I didn't have to wait or pay for shipping. They also carry B**chstix which is a brand that supports survivors of domestic abuse and is a cruelty-free product. I bought one for the friend I was meeting for dinner. The store carries many other items such as some fashion jewelry, curated baby items (clothes, books, etc), hair ties, scented candles and so much more! I am definitely going to stop by here another time since it's on my way home from work and it seems like the perfect place to find some wonderful gifts. The lady at the counter was friendly and super nice. She greeted me when I first came in and left me alone to browse. They had some sales as well. If you haven't checked this place out, you should! You never know what you'll find.

They have an extensive selection…read morewith lots of high end brands such as barefoot dreams, jellycat, weezie, thml, Kendra Scott, etc. Tons of items including home decor, clothing, kids, toys, jewelry, accessories, etc. Many of which can be personalized! Gifts for all types of occasions - housewarming, bride, baby, yourself! They actually have a large selection for clothes, outside of typical personalization or gifts. I was pleasantly surprised with the large selection! I worked with Margy who was super patient and helpful with all my questions and ideas for personalization. She helped me find the correct item, size, use the dressing room, etc. She went above and beyond in terms of customer service! The wait time was 5 business days to personalize which is very reasonable. I got the call my items were ready on the 3rd business day. I imagine the wait time might vary! They are willing to personalize outside items if they can. I was disappointed but understood that stuffed animals I brought could not be personalized because they were not flat. Similarly, the tricky thing is knowing what can be personalized and how as a customer. Some things are clear or there's samples but lots of items especially for stuffed animals, I wasn't sure. Items turned out as expected and perfectly! They also offer free gift wrap which was nicely done. Convenient location for me as well. I'm excited to come back for future gift needs - and for things for myself :)

I brought in a sweatshirt to be embroidered. I thought it was unnecessarily expensive. Some shops in the mall can do custom embroidery in an hour for about half the price but I try to support local businesses. Then when I picked up my item I felt like the embroidery looked awkward. Maybe I just picked a bad font but it is a cursive and it didn't flow. I'd be willing to give the shop another chance but I'm hesitant to recommend the embroidery. If you're just looking for gift ideas this place is very fun.

They had lots of inspiration boxes to fit different personalities. I found one I really liked and they helped me put one together to fit my mom. I ended up getting a couple of pieces of handmade pottery, tea, caramels, and a tiny plant. They wrapped it up beautifully in a box and ribbon. I will definitely be coming back here for future gifting needs and it's great to be able to support many local companies in one place.

I love a good, cute boutique, and Forth and Home has easily become one of my absolute favorites…read more(probably my favorite shop in STL, even). Located in Webster Groves, it sells all sorts of unique, handmade-looking (they're probably actually handmade, too) home goods. Everything feels like a statement piece with how personality they have, but they all have practicality to them. It makes it really easy (and dangerous) for me to justify all of the purchases. The prices are very fair, and I love that most products come in the same design and different sizes. Service is great, vibes are great, shop is beyond aesthetically pleasing (peep the gorgeous ceiling!). I think about Forth and Home a ridiculous amount and try to come up with every excuse to swing by, and I can't recommend it enough.

I was on my way to the place next door when I realized the White Rabbit was right there. Bonus! Shopped around, they had some cute things. I love flour sack towels and found one with flowers that was pretty. And kept going back to fancy glasses in blue so I decided to get those, too. Prices were reasonable and I spent the gift card plus some. I was really uncomfortable about the personal conversation the staff was having after my husband and I were the only customers in the shop. Not anything horrible but just not a convo for when customers are around.

As their website says, "The White Rabbit - A Vintage Chic Boutique"…read more What a great boutique to find unique and original gifts. When you enter the store you know you have found a #shoplocal #shopsmall store that will help you finish your holiday shopping. I found so many amazing gifts for those hard to buy for cousins. There were vintage items, that took me back to our childhood memories and I cannot wait for them to open their gifts and have the same flashbacks as I did shopping. I got a chuckle out of the candy jar for well behaved children. It's a shame they don't have one for well behaved adults as well. Would I come back? Yes, when I need a unique gift that you can't find anywhere else. When: December 11, 2016 Why: Gift Shopping #shoplocal

This store has been in Kirkwood for about a decade and every time I come in, it's a good experience. Their staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and they have a great selection of soaps and other items such as decorations and knick knacks. You can even watch them make the soaps in the evenings, most days. Yes, the soaps are expensive, but they're free of artificial ingredients and give back to the community. That's a win in my book :)

The employees who make their soaps, are adults who have IDD's. I love how they give back to the community by creating jobs. My recent visit, I didn't buy any soaps, I already have a good supply. However, I did buy a lot of their other gift items. I took advantage of some of the holiday discounts, got a pair of car coasters and new cocktail napkins. In my world, you can never have enough cocktail napkins. I take my own to bars and restaurants when meeting family and friends. I not only recommend Sammysoap for soaps, but it's also a fantastic place to find unique and affordable gifts. They have a lot of dog themed gifts, that I personally would like to receive. So if they have something for me, you'll find something for your friend or family, too. The staff/cashier are friendly and professional. As I browsed the store, they politely informed me of items on sale/promotion. They had some good sales going on. I may be going back for some lamps they had 30% off.
