The store also has a small section dedicated to gifts for kids, which is a nice touch when you're looking for a last-minute craft for the little ones. In the back, there's a dedicated space for local young artists, showcasing art from children to teenagers. It's a special area to wander through when you have some time. The owner is lovely and clearly passionate about the mission of bridging the gap for young artists, giving them a platform to share their work with the community. PS: The space can get pretty cramped, so be prepared to be patient before entering!

I love Cardinal Gift Shop. The owner, Chelsea Cardinal, has something very special here. It's a…read moregreat place to buy gifts, as is evidenced by the name. But it's also a space that highlights artists doing unique and beautiful things (the owner included. She makes many of the things in the shop. Hard to understand someone being good at making so many types of things). It's also a community space; they have regular art classes. I've seen flyers for mini quilting, paper marbling, knitting, and all types of other craft arts. The prices are not outrageous for items that are all handmade. It's worth its own special trip, even if you're not local.

Yours Truly is a cute, quaint, well-organized and well-stocked stationary store in Brooklyn. While…read moreon a trip to New York I popped in looking for some New York-based gift ideas for my sister. The woman behind the counter was very helpful in trying to assist me with finding something, and she even suggested some other stationary stores in the area too. I could tell she really cared about my shopping experience, and she was very knowledgeable. Well, despite her recommendations, I returned to Yours Truly days later and purchased some things from there. It just had more of what I was looking for, and I was more than happy to give the woman the business. Overall, it's a great stationary store to check out whilst in Brooklyn!

Cute, odd little shop. I guess I read it as more of a gift shop, whereas it is much more a…read morestationery store with greeting cards and some gift-ish or gift-adjacent ephemera. Their heaviest area of product seems to be greeting cards and wrapping paper along with pens, paper, post-its and other desk-type stationery. Staff is kind and product quality seems fine, although you will pay for that quality--that quirky card or small swatch of bespoke wrapping paper will be in the $7-10 range. Felt like the kind of shop I would normally adore, but I keep stopping in and leaving with nothing. It is incredibly niche for people interested in special or unique or bespoke products--and I do love them for that, it feels like the Brooklyn way, and I love that we have these bespoke shops for some people. This one is just a smidge too fancy and impractical and pricey for me.

I wanted to inquire about the store and what they offered. I entered the store and a lady came from the back and asked aggressively if I needed something, while telling me to get OUT.....I was so confused she was behaving like a broke in.... She then says "It's not a walk in place" I then snapped at her and let he know the door said open and a sign outside was saying how wonderful the neighborhood is..... Well she was horrible and if you have supported this place DO NOT anymore. This place definitely needs to be closed permanently or you need to learn what open and closed are.

On top of all that I was pleasantly surprised to have found a community of creative thinkers and organizers who regularly host events inside the space which give a platform to the incredible talent that this neighborhood has fostered over the years!

Though in the last two years I just quickly stepped in to view the adorable, glass Christmas ornaments, there's a lot more. It's one of those cozy stores that carry unique gifts such as socks, tumblers, glassware and more. There's even a wall of pet toys and they're adorable. Some items are pricey. The Christmas ornaments are eye catching. Food ornaments seem to be the trend and Wood's Grove carries a wide variety. Of note: I'm all for supporting small businesses however, I tend to shop at more notable stores whose return policy is beyond store credit. I don't know what their return policy is but when I asked an employee about any sales on Small Business Saturday, her response was " we don't do sales". Excuseeeee me. It was just a question! Despite this, I might be inclined to pop in and buy a gift for my cats--if I remember. Giving 4 stars since the merchandise is attractive. **Update** I made a purchase over the weekend. The store's small space made it difficult to navigate throughout. I found out their return policy is actually store credit. Holiday items aren't returnable. Staff not particularly friendly. I just feel lukewarm about this business.
