Having moved from NYC where there are hundreds of amazing small shops selling all sorts of gifts to…read moreNJ where you have miles and miles of big chain stores was a big culture change. My wife and I have a Christmas tradition of sourcing at least one of our gifts every year from a local shop so that got me scrambling to find some shops in our area. It wasn't long before I stumbled upon the amazingly cute town of Ramsey and one of it's best stores- Lilly & Kate. They have a little bit of everything. This includes but is not limited to home decor, jewelry, accessories, candles, and more. Much of what they carry are made by small independent companies and they also have a good selection of locally made products as well. Prices are fair and service was good. I was able to find a great Christmas ornament they had commissioned as well as an incredibly unique candle made by a small company in Georgia. If you're getting something for a present here, don't skip their offer to gift wrap it for you. They do a great job at that. If you're in the Bergen County area and are looking for a nice shop to browse for gifts, regardless of the recipient or occasion, make sure to add Lily & Kate to your go-to list.

They would not take it back 5 minutes later because they don't take returns for "holiday items" What else do you sell but holiday items!! And it was literally 5 min later with the same cashier!!! This place is scamming people and has just pure crap for sale. We will never go back and will celebrate when this dump finally goes out of business which is inevitable since it looks like a trash heap inside. Don't shop here!

Ramsey uses a generous layer of shredded, thick paper on top to gently hold the plants in place. This is my 2nd time ordering from Ramsey and I am equally pleased with both orders. I especially like their soil mix that they offer for purchase. It's light and allows for good drainage. Overall, I highly reccomend Ramesy Succulents. They offer a wide variety to choose from, their website is user friendly, their prices are very good, their products are quality, and they take care when shipping to their customers. I call that 5 stars!!!

Her passion for sewing is contagious and she made learning how to sew as complete beginners totally accessible. Our project during our time at the studio was to create pajama pants. For our first class we took a field trip to Joann's Fabrics where she taught us all about different types of fabrics, sewing supplies and notions we would need. After that we met at the studio each week where she guided us through the process, cheering us on and offering invaluable advice along the way. What truly made our experience with Suzi unforgettable was how much fun we had each week in the studio. Her studio radiates creativity and camaraderie, providing the perfect environment for budding creatives to flourish. We laughed, we learned, and we made memories that we will cherish for years to come. Without hesitation, my family and I wholeheartedly recommend Suzi at Dream Makers Art Studio to anyone looking to embark on their sewing or creative journey. Whether you're a complete novice or a seasoned seamstress, Suzi's passion, expertise, and infectious enthusiasm will inspire you to unleash your creativity. Thank you, Suzi, for an experience we will never forget! xx
