GPS brought us to the parking lot behind the building. There isn't clear signage to direct you where to go. We managed to find our way up the stairs and into the building. There are a number of businesses located inside. Lucky Tree is super cute. It's set up to encourage working, with plenty of charging spots all around. There is a variety of seating, from long wooden tables to smaller individual areas. We ordered a chai latte and golden milk latte, both with oat milk. Both drinks were good. Fyi there is a separate entrance from the side that takes you directly to another smaller parking lot.

I loved the cheese on top! I was not a huge fan of the flavor the almond flour gave them but it was not overpowering. I would probably get them again! They had a lot of options as far as specialty lattes but I am glad I went with the Vanilla Maple. I was worried that the maple flavor would be too much but it complimented the vanilla well. The inside was VERY well decorated, and I would've loved to stay and do a little computer work! I could see myself coming by and sitting down for a quick brunch, meeting up with friends, or staying for a work session.

I have used this business on 4 occasions, so shame on me. I have had 8 pillowcases monogrammed…read morehere and was satisfied with the work. When I was married 37 years ago, my mother-in-law gave me a set of appliquéd sheets which were beautiful so I purchased 4 new white pillow cases ($50.00) and brought them to EBM to have them also appliquéd. I brought my original cases for EBM to see what I wanted. I expected the thread and the fabric used to be very close to the same color. When I picked them up, the thread was the light blue I picked out and the fabric used was a light gray. I was disappointed but took them home. I have only used the cases twice because I don't think they are pretty. They are also fraying after 2 washes. This past week, I purchased another 4 pillowcases ($50.00) and returned to EBM to have them monogrammed since they have done a good job on my other monogrammed pieces. While placing my monogram order I asked the owner about my past appliquéd cases because they were such an investment and I was unhappy with how they had turned out. She did not remember the order, so I told her that when I picked up this new monogram order, I would bring one of the appliquéd cases for her to see. I returned today and showed the owner my appliquéd case. The owner looked at my case and told me that she had not done the work. I showed her how the fabric was fraying after 2 washings and how the fabric and the thread did not match. She in effect told me that she was sorry but not sorry because her store did not do the work. I explained to her that I have not shopped at any other monogram store and I remember that I did indeed have the work done at her store. She denied this. I would not have taken the time in writing this complaint except for the fact that I read a similar complaint about this owner on Yelp about 2 weeks ago. This complaint I read showed that the owner does not believe in customer service and does not take responsibility when her shop does a poor job. This other customer stated that she finally got the owner to split the difference in cost with her. Why have a business when you don't take responsibility for your mistakes, say you are sorry and ask how you can make up for the mistake? I think it odd that when dropping off your order, this business has you pay up front, after all, they have your merchandise. For instance, these last 4 pillow cases cost me $50.00. Why would a customer pay $50.00 for cases and then not pick them up when they have been monogrammed? I payed $50.00 for the cases and then EBM charged me $60.00 to monogram. I see now, this is done because if you are not satisfied, they already have your money. If you are not happy, too bad because they are not customer friendly. Buyer Beware, as I learned with my appliqué order. Whatever work they turn out, they will be payed and it does not matter whether or not you the customer are satisfied. The owner just denied that she had done the work. Had I known she would treat me as a customer this way, I would not have made a 46 mile trip from Chapel Hill. There are other monogram shops in the area and I bet that there are others who treat there customers as they should. If your order goes as it should with this business I am sure you will be satisfied but if a mistake is made, too bad for you the customer and oh well, EBM has your money.

If you are in need of a gift for yourself or others this is the place to go. Since it was a house previously, the Studio has a special comforting atmosphere. Although numerous items line the shelves, it doesn't seem overwhelming. The items are organized well and it's easy to navigate the area. The only difficult part was trying to narrow down what to purchase. The items are well made and the scattered amigurumi are incredibly adorable. I didn't even realize I wanted a crochet pop tart until now. I ended up purchasing several items as gifts. If you are unsure where to start, the co-owners are helpful and welcoming. We met the lady who makes the soaps and the soap is incredible. Overall, excellent place for local gifts and flowers! Free parking is available along Chatham street and in nearby lots.

I found Lynn's TC a tad unsettling, though, but not necessarily in a bad way. It just depends on your preference. To start, Treasure Chest is an odd store. I wasn't really sure what it was trying to be: a gift store, a jewelry store or a metaphysical store. It mixes elements of all three. When I first walked in I noticed the incense and thought "oh, metaphysical" but then as I wandered around, I saw the kids shoes, bags, pet clothes and it threw off my entire frame of reference. There are some really cute things here, the polka-dot bags and the dog collars, for example. On the other hand, the owner was more than willing to show me more about the items that caught my eye, and even offered some suggestions when I asked about working with the salt candle holders. Adding to its uniqueness, Lynn's offers workshops for the community that also are all over the place: Aura readings, makeup application techniques, scrapbooking, pillow-making - seriously - I left the store mystified. Despite that, though, I'll probably go back , as it was just strange enough to be intriguing. I like having my preconceived opinions tweaked.
