Maybe they had mens too, but l can't remember. Staff said they bought the shop next door to make it more of a women's boutique. I forgot to take a pic of the womens clothing, but they had cute sweaters and hats. Excited to explore that once it opens! Lots to look at, unique items, not too pricey, pretty much what l would expect from an independent shop owner. Hey, they got bills to pay too, right? All their items looked like they were made from quality material. Highly recommend for unique gifts!

I participated in an earring making class, and it was one of the most fun DIY classes I've ever done!! You get to make your own earrings from start to finish... and it's so neat to be able to do this entire process!! I'm for sure going to do another class!! If you're not interested in a class or shopping the storefront... you can order some earrings online!! If you're from Grand Rapids or are traveling to Grand Rapids... PLEASE make some time for The Color Forest!!

I've popped in there a few times needing a birthday present and can always find something. Snarky cards, interesting glassware/home decor, cute notebooks and office supplies. A great place to try if you need a hostess, bachelorette, or birthday gift for a girlfriend in your life but don't quite have an idea yet. The store isn't huge, but it uses all of its space efficiently so there is always a good selection of items. The owner is very pleasant and cheerful, happy to help if I need it or let me browse if I don't. They offer gift wrapping, as well, which is always nice if I'm in a rush. I don't have kids (or many little ones to buy for) so their selection of kids' clothing and toys is lost on me. But for the many EGR moms out there, I highly recommend checking this out!

I walked out with a simple bouquet of tulips and my friend was delighted! The service was stellar and the owner even gave me a tour around the shop. She was extremely passionate about her shop and you could tell that she puts a lot of thought into the items that are selected.

Having a small time frame to work with definitely saved my bank account from completely unloading into the store. Seriously, such cute things. They have a lot of great local artists showcasing their work with a lot of Michigan-themed items. The store is full of fun items to decorate with as well as a unique gift to give a friend. Definitely, give yourself some time to browse around in the store because there is a lot to see and take in! The store isn't all that big but everything is styled and displayed in such a way that it all just seems to go together, you may miss a gem if you just give an area a quick look! They seemed to get new things pretty frequently so feel free to come back often and you'll always find something new!

I saw tons of fun gifts and products, including clothes, jewelry, accessories, home goods, coffee, Polish pottery, books, tea, cards, art, etc. I love that it gives the opportunity for these small businesses to have a space to sell things even if they don't have their own storefront. I'm not sure how often the vendors rotate, but it's always fun to stop in and check things out. I especially love the Public Thread bags and accessories, the Polish pottery, and all the interesting art. There are signs everywhere letting you know that if you break something, you buy it, so be careful. I have purchased gifts here for myself and others and hope it sticks around for a long time!
