This store represents itself as an antique/ gift shop. We have been antiquing for well over thirty…read moreyears and understand that it is customarily accepted to request something of a reduction in price for an item that is $20 and above. We have had people decline to offer a deal on several occasions, but have never been yelled at and told we couldn't purchase anything! Most of the time our offers are accepted, because the sellers are motivated to move their stock and bring in new stuff and want people to have a positive experience. I have never had an experience like this before, and hope others don't either. Their are so many wonderful stores snd proprietors out there. I couldn't in good consciousness recommend this one!

As the name implies this store seems to be dedicated to the boating lifestyle or cabin you might have. You'll find lots of nautically inspired home decor and gifts for everyone. When I walked into the store I was greeted by Danielle, the owner. She couldn't have been more friendly and I loved hearing her story about how she decided to open her own shop. Retail experience seems to run in the family as her mom owns a shop in the Galleria and she also had an aunt in the business too. You'll be sure to find something here so check out this great addition to Excelsior!

ewelweed is so much more than a shop--it is truly a space for wellness, healing, learning, and…read moreconnection. From the moment you walk through the door, you can feel the care, intention, and love that has gone into creating this space. Every product is thoughtfully selected, and it is clear that the owners and shopkeepers maintain incredibly high standards for what they choose to carry. I especially appreciate their commitment to supporting small businesses, including minority-owned businesses, and curating products that align with their values of quality, integrity, and wellness. What makes Jewelweed unique is that the staff genuinely knows the products they sell because they use them themselves. Whether it's a tincture, tea, crystal, book, incense, skincare product, or wellness tool, they can speak from personal experience and offer thoughtful guidance without any pressure to buy. The ingredients are clean, the products are high quality, and I've found many of them to be more effective and longer-lasting than alternatives I've used elsewhere. The crystal and gemstone collection is especially special. Each piece is hand-selected, carefully brought back to Minnesota, and lovingly prepared before being placed in the shop. You can feel that everything here is a labor of love. Their book selection is outstanding, and their offerings of oracle decks, tarot decks, tinctures, and wellness products are among the best I've encountered. Several products I've discovered through Jewelweed have made a meaningful difference in my quality of life. What I appreciate most, however, is the people. Every shopkeeper I've met has an incredible ability to hold space for others. Whether you're seeking guidance, moving through a difficult season, celebrating something joyful, or simply curious, you'll be met with kindness, respect, and genuine care. There is no judgment, no pressure, and no expectation that you subscribe to any particular spiritual or religious belief. You never have to worry about asking the "wrong" question or feeling out of place. The events and classes they offer are equally thoughtful, intentional, and beautifully curated. Everything about Jewelweed reflects a deep commitment to community, education, wellness, and authentic human connection. If you're looking for a place where you can explore, learn, heal, and feel welcomed exactly as you are, I cannot recommend Jewelweed highly enough.

They were closing, but let me in anyway and made a beautiful corsage. They wouldn't allow me to pay and gave me a big hug after hearing our story.
