    Lots of good finds!

    Whimsy meets old train depot! Catching Fireflies is the perfect place to find a special gift. I find myself walking around for at least 30+ minutes when I visit because there is so much to look at and this place is not very big! The place is just off main street and you cannot miss the colorful building. There is also history attached to this location, so be sure to check out the historical marker next to the building. Parking is just behind the place and is free. Or you can find meter parking or park at the library (free) and walk over. The staff are always friendly and offer to gift wrap your purchase. Or they will include gift wrapping materials and you can wrap at home. Such a nice added touch. But I will say this can make the line pretty slow. COVID-19 wise - staff wear masks and guests are expected to wear masks as well. There is a gift for anyone here, even a hard-to-buy dad or brother. The store is sectioned off into type of gifts. Some sections include: Wedding, pets, golf, Michigan, baby, cooking, homemade products like soaps/candles, children toys, and gag gifts to name a few. The holidays also bring gifts such as ornaments, etc. for the holidays. They do occasionally do coupons in the local Rochester Area mailer - so be sure to clip those!

    This florist is acceptable, but not at all the high-end service I expected from its reputation. I…read moream a former floral designer and am well aware of the small things, which cost very little, that can elevate an arrangement from acceptable to outstanding. I ordered a $200 piece, corporate, and expected at that level, these touches would be in place. More eucalyptus makes a wonderful, upscale presentation and would've cost the shop about $5, or 2.5% my total cost. Adding much more limonium is such a minuscule cost, it's practically free, yet it was used as if it were an expensive item: sparsely. The vase would've cost maybe 10 more dollars (shop cost) to look like something special, not garage sale fodder. So for $15-20 extra in cost, the piece would've gone from checking the box to meets expectations. I also was not impressed with the design quality. Rose placement needed improvement, with unsightly depths on several. The photo I was sent clearly showed they do not care about cleanliness--the table the flowers were set on was disgustingly dirty. This underscores that details don't matter, so if this is what you're letting the customer see, what is happening behind the scenes? Cleanliness of tools, vessels, and coolers are important to flower health and longevity. On a positive note, the roses looked healthy and were prepped properly, it seemed. I liked the selection, including the upscale rose availability. They did send a photo, which I requested, which was very good of them. The piece was done in a very timely manner. So disappointing that they didn't just add that little something extra to elevate the piece. I won't go back.

The woman on the phone was so kind and helpful. She ensured me they could get an arrangement to my grandfather that day. I bought a $50 holiday flower arrangement and figured it would be a smaller arrangement because of the price. It was delivered within just a couple of hours. My grandfather sent a picture of them and they are GORGEOUS! I seriously cannot believe they were a $50 arrangement because of how full and beautiful it was. Thank you so much!

    Can I Give 10 Stars??? AWESOME florist!…read more I called to order flowers and the person on the phone was delightful. She took time to walk through some options with me and listen to what I was hoping to send. When she gave me the total for the type of arrangement we talked about, she said $65. I cringed - I expected to pay around $150 for the flowers, not delivery. I stammered and asked how big the arrangement would be, what types of flowers they use (I asked for roses to be mixed in!), etc. She assured me it would be big and beautiful, and offered to text me a photo of the arrangement before it went out for delivery. I didn't ask her to do that, but the person who received the flowers sent photos after they arrived. They were GORGEOUS! Absolutely STUNNING! What they sent would have easily cost over twice as much at another florist. I will absolutely go to them again when I need flowers sent!

The space is noticeably bigger than their previous one, which gives them more staging area and space to offer larger pieces of furniture, artwork, and clothing in addition to all the unique goodies they already carried within the store that are smaller scale. Everything here is extremely pricey, which is unfortunate for me given that there are many things I love from here, but I just simply can't justify spending exorbitant amounts of money on these sorts of homegoods and accessories too often. The products they carry are definitely geared towards the more affluent and those with lofty home design ideas, as they also have fabric samples and the like to help you design and customize your furniture and upholstery upon them in the back of the store too. The price tags make sense in the sense that I have not seen any of the products they offer in any other stores in the metro Detroit area, so there's nothing to compare their goods to. This is a great place to window shop or stop in to get inspiration for your home and to pick up a unique piece or two. I'm still thinking about the tatted up Albert Einstein piece of artwork (included in the photos!), which I love so much, but even just the print of it without it framed was already $70-80 and that's a hard price to justify even for hot Albert Einstein! I like how every time I stop in to Talulah Belle, there's always new discoveries to be had. They clearly refresh their stock frequently and it's always great to stop in here for inspiration and intentionally unique gifts for the loved ones in your life...including yourself!

I walked inside and the lady who greeted me told me she would be just a minute. Nobody else was in the store so I don't know why I had to wait for her to ring me up. I asked for a paper bag with handles. She had given me a plastic bag with handles. Her response was, no your bag has handles. You can't have that one. I was very much taken aback by her rude and abrupt tone and the fact that she would not give me a paper bag. I will never go back to a store that would be so cheap as to not give a customer a paper bag upon request
