Such a wonderful find! I was just walking around exploring downtown Lancaster and stumbled upon…read morethis spot. As a new bracelet maker, it was awesome! You can make your own bracelets right there, you can shop for supplies (beads, charms, wire, etc.), and you can buy already made jewelry. The staff was wonderful! Friendly and helpful. The selection was incredible! I LOVE the beads I bought here and have not found anything similar elsewhere. (Can y'all ship to me? ) A really great spot for learning more, browsing and shopping, etc. Had a great experience here and left with an awesome haul of beads and charms. If I lived in Lancaster, I'd be here weekly, if not daily.

This was a great shop at one time, a MUST visit! We used to find many good pieces here at…read morereasonable prices. The owners were engaging, and there was a great selection of many different types of items. It was bought out some years ago (maybe 6-7?) and has been going downhill steadily. Checked it out today. Arrived about 2pm and there was one other customer in there. Walked in and no one even recognized we were there. The entire time we were there the guy behind the counter was looking down at his phone; never said one word. After pretty much speeding through the shop I left, verbalizing to my shopping partner that I'd see him in the car. He said, "I'm ready too;" we've both been in customer service and were baiting him to at least say something. Finally as my shopping companion was leaving, he looked up for a split second; no words were spoken. The selection of goods is now very much on par with several of the other shops in the area (Pine Hill, Heritage, 272, etc.) with a lot of pressed glass, pottery/dishware, 60's-80's kitchen and newer collectibles. Very few oddities, true antiques, mechanicals, more interesting items. I doubt we'll return unless next time we're down here we've already visited every shop possible and they're still open. If you're a dealer here, they're doing nothing to welcome customers, engage with them, offer assistance, or even say "hi!" Look for space elsewhere.

I went back to where the restrooms were located and noticed there were signs on the door. I asked the worker if I could use the restroom she said no, we're not allowed to let anyone use them. I said the last time we were there they allowed us. She said slrry and went back to talking to the man sitting behind the counter. I told my girlfriend, Sorry let's leave and we did.

Mary has hand made birdhouses and nostalgic rustic items for home and garden. I walked away with a few 1900 post cards myself and old turn of the century stamps I hope are worth some money? Her Store is LOADED with a variety of hard to find items even for that collector. She also took me to her Barn, and it had some really interesting pieces I had never seen before. Mary actually has a very nice personality, easy for a historical conversation or to just negotiate on some prices. All in all I think even Mel Fisher would have been proud to scuba dive in Mary's store for treasure. So go check it out and tell her the Review Guru sent you. The Review Guru Long Island NY

We met some of his family who all helped make our visit memorable. Our dinner was delicious, with some old standbys like roast beef and mashed potatoes but also new to me dishes like buttered noodles, glazed ham meatballs and chow-chow. We went to the Quilt shop after and I've never seen so many beautiful hand made quilts in one place. The designs are beautiful and the work is immaculate. They had so many other items in the shop as well.

I found out about Revive from a Facebook suggested page. I was surprised there was a thrift store…read morein downtown Ephrata that I knew nothing about considering I'm up there frequently. As per their Facebook page they are described as the owner had a dream to purchase property, have her own store, and provide affordable housing to women in need. This store is considered for profit, however she states that she uses the funds to renovate the upstairs apartments in hope to help women escape bad relationships by providing affordable housing options. I support her vision. I was lucky enough to visit the store a few weeks before Christmas when the parking meters were covered. Normally there's a fee for street parking however I'm not sure if it's because of the season or covid that street parking was free. It's a bit hard to secure downtown and difficult to back out of since the spots are slanted but not impossible. Inside the store has an overwhelming amount of stuff. Not quite hoarder level but there's alot to take in. The property is a series of small rooms, you walk thru one to get to another, with lots of nooks and crannies. It is a challenging space to set up for retail and she does what she can to make it organized. It is hard to walk thru some areas and definitely leave the stroller and big handbag at home! Some areas have nice displays and she does have a good eye for showcasing more precious items. Overall there's every department that a larger thrift store would have, just separated a bit. What surprised me was everything was yard sale prices - like .50 cents and a $1! While some of the clothing items were dated I did find some nice kids pieces that I couldn't leave without for .50 apiece! Many of the house and glasswear pieces were vintage and still priced at yard sale prices. I honestly don't know how she makes any money. On the porch was a free clothing pile which I didn't investigate. The owner was very friendly and let you walk around and explore on your own without being intrusive, but was available to help if you needed her. They are cash only so be sure to bring some and definitely allow yourself some time as this is not an in and out kind of shop. Worth adding to my thrifting rotation whenever parking is available.
