The ladies who work there are always available to show you how to style a scarf in a way that is incredible and totally foreign to me. They have also arranged vases with succulents that I wouldn't have thought of. Gifts that are just truly special and unique to give. I love going there! It's a wonderful place!

The staff is also super helpful and always willing to help with a specific idea when I tell them who/what I'm shopping for.

Cute business alert!…read more This is one of those stories of passing by a shop a million times on my way somewhere, always telling myself I want to go back and check out that shop. And then, it happens again and again, until one day. That special day you make time and go in, and then kick yourself for not going in sooner - LOL! What an adorable shop with the sweetest business owners. A shop full of gifts and accessories made by local artisans. And, I might add, I'm obsessed with the Jade & Renee line as well. Do you see those sweet dish towels in my photos? Here's why you want to stop in. Because it's a shop where you'll find a little something for everyone on your list. They have baby gifts, toys, lotions, candles, super fun cards, socks with funny sayings and images, dishes, fun kitchen towels, and I know I'm forgetting a million things. Did I mention a few fun books and journals? Best of all, and what makes them super unique is the fact they do embroidery and t-shirt printing on site. Talk about a one stop shop! Please don't make the mistake of just passing by like I did for too long.

Madame Zuzu's is one of those places I'd love to visit at least once a year, and even though this…read moreis only my second visit, there's already something new to discover. This time, I noticed they had added records and Smashing Pumpkins merch, which I hadn't seen during my last visit. I love that there's always something different to discover here, and I could easily spend a good amount of time just looking around. We arrived right when they opened so we could enjoy everything before the rush. It was calm, cozy, and relaxing, and the staff were super friendly and welcoming. I ordered a hot chocolate and a glazed donut. The hot chocolate was creamy and smooth, with a deep chocolate flavor and subtle dark chocolate notes that added a little bitterness to balance the sweetness. And the donut... wow. This thing was a massive masterpiece! The glaze had that delicate sugary sweetness that gave way with every bite, while the inside was soft, fluffy, and buttery. I loved the contrast between the thin coating on the outside and the tender dough inside. It was sweet and satisfying without being too heavy. But dipping the donut into the hot chocolate took everything to another level. Honestly, I couldn't have picked a better pairing. Madame Zuzu's keeps surprising me every time I visit, I could sit back, enjoy the surroundings, and listen to the live music for hours.

I offered to trade some of my estate watches towards the purchase & Manny offered to take a look. I traded a men's vintage *Tag Heuer* and a *Vintage Tiffany Rolex* Sub Mariner. I added some cash into the deal. I collected vintage from estate sales inexpensively, but was totally naive as to their value. The Rolex alone had value perhaps twice the Bertolucci. It must've been clear to jewelers. I see the rate Tiffany Rolex seeking for stunning prices. I was and am still stunned Manny would take advantage of me and the family. He literally stole from me in that exchange. The Bertolucci isn't worth $1k today. When Shelle jewelers is mentioned, this story is told. Shame on Manny & son.
