Nothing funny about the awesome quality and customer service! Unless you have zero sense of humor,…read moreyou are pretty much guaranteed to find something from The Peppermill Shop to make you laugh. I have purchased 5 shirts and 2 sets of magnets now. The quality of each item has been great! I had special requests for the owner, Kelly, and she was excellent in her communication and willingness to help. I'll definitely buy from this shop again!

I first saw this quirky food art hanging in Flytrap brewery and I kept thinking they would make wonderful gifts.The paintings are "ready to hang" with eye hooks, picture wire, and simplex wire clamps, giving them a light industrial feel. From there, 5x7 prints are made from line drawings done by hand, which are then cleaned up with Photoshop (which is also use for color addition). These files are used for printing heat-press decals for use on canvas tote bags, t shirts, and onesies, which we press individually in the home shop. They are also used for making 1" magnets and pins, which we are also made locally. Tip: You can buy some of the really funny and semi-explicit greeting cards downtown at Edge of Urge

Knick-knacks, china, candlesticks, candles, gifts, and beach-appropriate decorating items like a bottle opener ship's wheel (my favorite; perhaps not classy).

They also had a number of fountain pens to choose from, though I was not in the market so skipped over them. This alone is enough to make this a regular stop for me on my visits to Wilmington. On the downside, I spent a good 20 minutes browsing in the store AND made a purchase and the clerk never really engaged me other than seeming to keep an eye out that I was not shoplifting. When I was leaving I saw a sign outside the door that they were promoting a special project where people could write notes to service people overseas. I didn't see the sign when i came in and never did the clerk asks me if I wanted to contribute to the project -- which I totally would have. I absolutely DO NOT like clerks who are all over you when you are shopping, but a friendly greeting and promotion of an event like they were running is not overboard.

The outside entrance is flanked by flowers and decorative bikes, one of which is being ridden by a gigantic ant. Upon entering, one is greeted by a cacophony of sights and colors. There is an abundance of unique gift items, stationary, cards and just way too cute tchotchkes. They carry Papyrus cards (my favorite) and I was able to find a perfect one for a relative's birthday. I was also able to pick up a great gift, perfect for my birthday boy. This lovely shop is located in the historic area of downtown Huntington in a repurposed old building. There is plenty of parking available on the street or in the nearby parking garage. If I lived here, I would be here ALL the time.

They offered custom crepes although I didn't get one because we had breakfast reservations elsewhere. I would have though! I ordered the prettiest drink which was called You're Like Really Pretty. A nod to Mean Girls I assume. It was tasty, I wish I could go back for another. I also wish we had something like this in Charlotte. Can't wait to return on a future visit.
