Eclectica is in many ways a dying breed. There was a time not too terribly long ago that small,…read moreunique specialty shops were seemingly everywhere. And now they have largely been replaced by the dreariness, drabness, and sameness of chain stores. And make no mistake. Eclectica is a gem. You can find unique gift items here that you can't find anywhere else. There is something here for any budget. The owner is friendly, always offers a warm greeting, and is very helpful. It's clear from the moment you enter that she's put a lot of care and heart into this place, and it shows. If you are looking for a unique gift that literally you won't find anywhere else, or something for yourself, take a few moments to visit this place. You won't be disappointed. The items are always changing, always something new, and always something to please.

I left a large vintage bag made of folded cigarette papers woven together…read moreon consignment with Joanna when her shop was in the trolley square neighborhood of Wilmington. She sold the bag and never paid me anything for it. I'm sure she got a nice sum for it, but I never received a penny. We were actually friends at the time, and she had the nerve to just expect me to accept this behavior. Rotten.

Jimmy remembered me from 1st grade (the only time we went to the same school) and it had been way more than 20 years since we had chatted. And this past weekend, my mom was passing through and someone (presumably Jimmy) said, "Mrs. R, how are you doing? How's Diego?" Almost brings a tear to my eye - oh, how I miss getting produce and cinnamon bread at Marini's! Luckily, I will be back East and may have an opportunity to pass by. I also recall sometime around 1977 when my mom's Buick wouldn't start, so they let us take their wagon (1969 Pontiac?) back home so we could call a tow truck . . . class act! Every person should have a business like this nearby.

Anytime I'm in town from San Diego, this is an absolute must see place. Food quality is incredible, staff is awesome, and the atmosphere is magical. I wish I lived nearby, I'd visit multiple times throughout the week! Plus, the pig out front is the cutest thing ever! Also, they have such a great selection of desserts, produce, plants and Christmas trees!! Family owned and operated, can't get any better! Only downside...they're not open year round but I've learned that's only because unlock California, produce and veggies aren't always available all year round!

It is SO three floors have fun! (That is what the store owner says when you enter the business)…read more I love love love this business and have followed them through two locations and places like Clover Market where I was first introduced to them. They are my go to place for garden accents - vintage and reproduction and I love this big old wash tub in the front room that has odds and ends of coin silver, silver plate, and sterling serving pieces and flatware. Fun and sometimes funky pieces of old furniture, true country pieces, and great art and some of the best antique mirrors I have seen. They also have the most amazing Christmas ornaments and wow can I go on? YES, ALL DAY I LOVE THIS PLACE THAT MUCH! The owner is very willing to deal fairly with her customers and it never hurts to see if it is her best price. If you have never been, GO. And keep on going back because the stock moves and always new treasures to be found.

Be sure to wear proper clothing for this indoor and outdoor shop. This is an Urban Outfitters family brand shop. Urban Outfitters was founded in Wayne, PA. Accordingly this first Terrain location was an all out endeavor. And it delivers. It's a hygge spa meets gardening paradise. Plan to spend 30-45 minutes shopping and walking the grounds. Halloween and the holidays are the best here. And a stop at the cafe to your next visit. See website for more information. Free parking but come early on weekends and event days.

Some Terrain shops (the smaller ones inside Anthropologie stores) are limited to dried flowers, indoor plants, and accessories and garden tools, but they have larger stores, including this location in Glen Mills - their flagship location. It opened in 2008; it has a nursery, a huge home store (decor, candles, llighting, food, gifts, garden gear, indoor plants), a fafe, a greenhouse... Whether you're a gardener or not, Terrain is fun to explore. We visited two weeks ago, and I have to say that it's particularly beautiful in winter - all those Christmas trees in snow and a fire pit and seasonal decor... Worth stopping by if you're in the area!

It's even a BYOB, so you can sip and craft all in one. It's a DIY dream. You choose your stencil when you register for a class online and it's printed before you arrive. The instructor, Bridget, walks you through the process of distressing your board, choosing your stain, applying it, putting your stencil on, and painting it at the end. She was so patient and kind and helped everyone throughout the room along with the assistant, ange. This class is perfect for anyone, even those who don't feel creative. The staff makes it so easy for anyone to have a good time and leave with great art that they made themselves! They even have private parties available so you can rent the place for just you and your friends. Will definitely be back!!! Follow them on social media for information on coupons and deals too.

Not a great first experience here. Had items shipped here…read moreto Brandywine town Center. Got a confirmation mail that they arrived and when I get to Kirkland's 2 days later no one can find my purchases. After about 30 minutes The cashier told me I should call customer service to which my response was that she or someone else should since email clearly told me it was shipped to the store. At this point the manager stepped in and went in the back and checked and then called customer service. This took another 15 minutes The end result being that there was a mess up. The email never should've been sent to me to because items were never sent to the store so I was told to go home and wait a few days and call back. Now I have to say that the manager handled this well because she did in fact tell me she would call when it was in And she did. So I have no complaints with the management, just Kirklands methodologies in communication and shipping. And I probably would've given this two stars because the manager did try to help but I got really annoyed when I got a major item home and when I went to hang it the hanging materials were not attached to the item as indicated in both the packaging and the email. I'm Done with online- ship to store ordering. Anything I decide to purchase from Kirkland's in the future will only occur on the infrequent times I'm in the area.
