First visit to this Kate Spade in October this year and wasn't disappointed. Very friendly staff,…read morevery helpful too. There was more than one purse I was interested in, but settled on a big clear blue tote with an extra skinny pouch I could use for cash & probably ID. Right now I put coupons in it. My daughter talked me into getting it so I could keep extra stuff in this clear tote-things I always have a hard time leaving behind that don't fit in my smaller Kate Spade. I have tried now for a year to only carry a small crossbody purse, and it is really helpful when you have neck issues like I do....but....it's been hard! So this idea of carrying the smaller one inside the tote and pulling it out when I go inside shopping has been genius! I have everything organized in a blue purse organizer I had gotten on Amazon years ago. The one thing I did notice is at another store like this, they actually had the markdown prices listed so you didn't have to ask. Here, I felt bad I had to keep asking for the prices of the different ones I liked-I could've figured it out myself, but Kate Spade has a certain way of doing the discounts so I always want to make sure. Plus they can do it off the top of their head usually! When it gets to be holiday season, especially here at Birch Run outlet's, waiting on an attendant for a price over it being listed would try my patience especially if it's hot inside the store. That's why not 5 stars. No other reason!

The sales associate asked we need any help. I said we were looking. The store had release there new Disney Minnie purse collection line. Most of the store was 70 percent off with an additional 20 percent off. The sales associate Nicole made the shopping experience pleasant and was very helpful when it came to calculations of the price of sales of the bags. They offer 15 percent military discount on top of the additional sale price! It was was an amazing shopping experience. I highly recommend coming here for the shopping experience and awesome sales!

No No No- I just discovered something even worse then putting glitter into a greeting card and…read moreopening it! Yes these labels were so that the 3 bags of rose petals I purchased at full retail price (no price discount or even free shipping for a $400 order) were left with truly disgusting labels still on. I opened a box with beads completely covered in white and yellow plastic shreds of old labels!! Who sells and sends to a customer labels that disintegrates even without being touched? I mean while you were packing it must have dawned on you that these bead labels looked bad (like really really bad - yellowing and peeling). So no I don't recommend this small bead shop - I have purchased from hundreds of Etsy Shops and bead shops across the US. And never ever have I encountered such a complete disregard for selling an item(s) that were covered in crap. It is old disgusting labels remove them for goodness sake's before you send to the customer who paid top dollar. No excuses! For full price beads go somewhere else. Lanabeads2, JasmineTeaDesigns and Ancient Moon on Etsy are so much better!

We used to come here quite a bit a few years ago. They used to have a wide selection of crystals…read morebut I believe it is now mostly beads. We were lookingn at some pieces in the glass and the prices were a bit pricey considering I have purchased a lot of the same crystals for half of the price. Some of the beads were pretty fair price if you are coming in for beads. I was just a little dissapointed with the price of the crystals. I have a pretty large collection of crystals so I am familiar with the pricing. However, I do realize that everything in the shops nearby can be a little pricey too especially because it is a very high tourist spot. I am assuming the rent for the shop is high so the prices reflect that. Overall, it is a nice store to look around and we were greated when we walked in.

Purchased a dress here for my daughter for prom. Staff were really nice during the sale and made…read moresure the dress was a good fit, right size, etc. We ordered the same dress, same size, just a different color. When we came to pick up the dress, we were told it had been quality checked and there were no issues . Fast forward to prom night. Before she even left for prom, the seam of the slit had popped and opened about half an inch and a seam in the side had popped open. About an hour into prom, one of the straps had broken loose and had to be safety pinned. Incredibly poor quality for such an expensive dress. I called the store for support and while the person at the front desk was nice, she said her manager told her they couldn't do anything about it. I wasn't even looking for a refund, just for them to have their seamstress fix the dress since it essentially broke in 3 places within a couple of hours of her putting it on (and not because it was too small for her). They told me if I wanted it fixed, I would have to pay for it to be repaired. Even then, it's now been 2-3 weeks since sending pictures to get a quote on that repair and I haven't heard anything back. Do better and stand behind your products, especially with your prices! We won't be shopping here again.

So yesterday I got off work and grabbed my daughter and drove 1 hr and 15 minutes to shop for prom…read moredresses. We got there 40 minutes before they closed, which full disclosure, made me feel bad but our schedules are what they are. We were immediately treated, given the run down and sent off into the rows of dresses. As we selected dresses, our associate, I think her name was Zoe's, took them to a fitting room. Once we selected 5, my daughter and Zora headed to the dressing room. Zora took the time to "alter" each dress after tying, snapping, zipping, etc and after a few dresses, Zora started looking for ones she thought we'd like. Her suggestions were fantastic. She found several choices we loved and was able to show us alternative color options. As closing time quickly approached, I asked if she minded if we stayed and she was very accommodating, assuring us they were staying late to set up for something, insisting she didn't mind. Unfortunately we didn't find THE dress. We did find a contender and the store is keeping it on file so we can just call if we opt to say "yes to the dress". I was incredibly impressed with all the staff, the selection and the service. I wish we would have found out about this place 4 homecoming's ago. The best part is that they will not sell the same dress again to anyone that goes to the school, not even in another color. I hope we can find another day to go back, revisit the dress and make it happen, if for no other reason than Zora deserves the sale. And I hope I'm getting her name right.

However we parked at the mall across the street on this trip and this was right across the street. My husband really wants a grandfather clock and he was very excited to check out the selection. Prices seemed kind of high to me but to be fair I don't know anything about grandfather clocks, lol. They also have a nice selection of Frankenmuth magnets, they ranged from like $4 to $10. I ended up buying one of the $4 ones. The reason I'm bumping up this review to five stars is because I lost my Fitbit there (Fitbit Zip, an old one that sits on my waist, not my watch) and when my husband and I got to Kern's and realized it, we rushed back to the store to check there first (it was 530pm). The (owner? Employee?) welcomed us back, and another customer immediately pointed to it on the floor. Saved us a lot of hassle and had they closed immediately at 530pm, the doors may have been locked. Looking forward to checking this store out again the next time we are in town.

Some of the knives were really cool but pretty pricey. It was $100 for a nice small knife. We weren't too interested in the other items in the shop.

Over the years things have become more pricey, as has anywhere else that's touristy, but I will say they have some very cool and unusual things they carry that if I did have loads of extra cash I would purchase! Like these really cool heads, all the fairy things, leather products. Have some pictures included. The one thing we went in for this year a couple weeks ago was to check out the new bar. They even have a pretty good size outdoor patio that unfortunately we didn't get to take advantage of because of the rainy weather. It was still open for late October though which was nice. The bartender was extremely nice that day(we were in town from Oct 23-26)and very knowledgeable about the Zehnder family, Bavarian Inn, etc. It was a nice conversation we had for sure since I've been coming to Frankenmuth for so many years. Going off the Fall special drink list, I tried the Cranky Mule, my daughter tried the Frankenstein Monster one. For $8, it was a good size and decent price. No complaints they were both good! Will be going back here for a quick drink next time shopping here again. One special note, I believe there is a coupon for a free gift in the visitors coupon book. The minimum purchase has gone up, but the free gift has always been something nice here.

This place is teeming with vintage wares, antiques and odd or unique memorabilia, but it's so unorganized, so full, it's hard to find anything if you're looking for something specific. They had a lot of fun and whimsical outdoor/farmhouse decor, vintage pyrex, antique dolls, old estate jewelry, and a lot of kitsch items. The prices on what I did see was on par with the area, but the lack of organization and messy layout was a bit of a distraction. I'm sure they had a whole lot more stuff I never even noticed or knew was there. It definitely is a cute antiques shop but I would definitely need a whole day to poke around a likely a few trips to the building to really get a feel for what they had and a better idea of what they are as far as being more geared to kitsch, memorabilia, decor, straight up antiques or all things vintage. One thing that stuck out to me- no one who worked here greeted me or my wife or gave us the time of the day. We were ignored entirely. I found that a little odd.

A LOT of glassware. Not really my thing. But I liked the atmosphere and setup. Very friendly people.read more
