Lamps, books, blankets, jewelry and sage - what more could you ask for?!?! It almost reminds me of a shop up in Wisconsin Dells. And then there is Steve... He is funny and down to earth. He is personable and kind hearted. He stands behind his products and his staff. He shares personal stories which helps you get to know him even more. Love that guy & his store!

I always find a great gift for someone and also a gift for myself. They carry clothing, accessories, home decor and lush bath and body items. My sister has purchased beautiful jewelry and I brought home a purse, scarf, make up bag and body butter. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They are always helpful and attentive. I know I can count on personal assistance when I'm not sure of my choice. Main Street parking is plentiful and the prices are on point. There's no reason not to shop here!

Come to think of it, this place kind of screams bachelor guys with bachelor guy hobbies! Whether its pub darts, kites, bean bags, or disc golf, Art Smart's has you covered! The owner had me in stiches with his ribbing and off the wall asides, while I paid for a glow in the dark rubber chicken and rubber chicken air freshener. (Yes, I'm a Svengoolie fan!) There's lots of goofy gag gifts here and old timey gag gifts, too. So it's also a shop to come to for those White Elephant gifts and stocking stuffers.

From cute and whimsical to fun and naughty, there is always something for everyone. The have mostly new, but they also have a few vintage items too. The look and feel of the shop is the best. I don't know where to look first. I usually make a few trips around to make sure I don't miss anything. There are just soooo many things to see. If I am looking for a gift for someone - anyone, I shop here. They have men's, women's, children, baby, home decor, accessories, coffee & tea items, greeting cards, gift wrap and the list goes on. The staff that I meet on each visit could not be any nicer. On my last visit, I decided to go back the next day to get something I was still thinking about and the guy remembered me. I like that. I always feel welcomed and appreciated.

Stopped in this super cute store around 12:15pm after visiting the Kenosha Farmer's Market. It was…read moreabsolutely adorable and such great items. We were the only ones in the store which was super nice as we didn't need to worry about trying to look at everything while trying to move out of the way for other people. There's so much to look at that I could have spent at least an hour in here covering every square inch of the place looking at all the wonderful goodies like candles, signs, cards, apparel, lotions, etc. Although, I wanted many items from here, I kept my purchase to a reasonable limit. I treated myself to the exclusively To and From Gift Shop perfume oil roller. It smells SO GOOD. Honestly, I wish I would have bought 2 as I'm from out of town (6 hours away!). The owner was kind and engaged in conversation with us. Awesome store. Highly recommend stopping in if you're in the area.

When it comes to shopping and supporting local small businesses, the Bronzeville Collective is a…read moregreat option in Milwaukee! This location is home to several black/brown and LGBTQ+ creative business owners with over 25 local brands represented. I stopped by on Small Business Saturday and I really appreciated the efforts they are taking to provide a safe in-person shopping experience. They ask that you wear a mask and clean your hands upon entry (they have a sanitation station at the main entrance). They also have 'touchless shopping' signs throughout to remind shoppers to look with their eyes unless they're serious about purchasing an item. The represented brands range from clothing apparel to accessories and jewelry. They also have holistic care brands along with candles and other fragrances. If you're looking to support local, then you need to make a visit to the Bronzeville Collective!

They have everything from crystal candles, gemstones, apparel, and lots of handcrafted jewelry. The atmosphere is funky, eclectic and oh so welcoming. Be ready to be stopped upon entering and nicely asked to use some hand-sanitizer. We weren't ready for that but had zero qualms about the request. There is also signage around the store calling for "touchless shopping" and everyone is quick to help upon request. It also looked like there were several orders waiting to be picked up, curb-side style. Might be worth looking into if you still aren't a fan of shopping in a brick and mortar just yet. Side note/bonus - a lot of the retailers in this space are local small businesses of color AND this shop is located directly across the America's Black Holocaust Museum.
