If you love Detroit (or just great local finds), put this everything-Detroit boutique at the very…read moretop of your list. It's one of those shops that perfectly captures the spirit of the city while still feeling welcoming, creative, and genuinely community-focused. The location in Midtown is super convenient, with easy street parking nearby -- always a bonus in the city. And if you have time, definitely pop next door to Nest, which they also own. It has the same thoughtful vibe and is absolutely worth browsing plant-centric items. This is my go-to spot for gifts, although I'll admit some items mysteriously end up staying with me. The selection is fantastic: unique Detroit-themed T-shirts, beautiful jewelry, coasters, drinkware, cutting boards, locally made soaps, baby gifts, and so much more. Everything has a Michigan connection, and a lot of the pieces come from local artists and makers, which makes shopping here feel even more meaningful. What really sets this place apart, though, is the people behind it. The staff are genuinely kind, knowledgeable, and clearly invested in their community. You can tell they care about supporting local artists, small businesses, and the neighborhood as a whole -- and that makes supporting them feel good too. If you want authentic Detroit gifts, thoughtful local products, and a shopping experience that feels personal rather than corporate, this spot absolutely delivers. I always look forward to coming back.

This place holds so many good gifts for all ages and is definitely work a quick stop! There were so many items I was interested in getting, and I found especially they their custom-made yearly ceramic plates that they can then put your names on was a super cute item that can serve as a great gift idea or for your own family. They also have yearly glassblown (at Greenfield Village itself, of course) candy cane ornaments that you can purchase as well to hang on your tree at Christmastime! When I was visiting all the art houses around the village, I saw them making some really cute items that day like ceramic mugs and glass vases, in very aesthetically pleasing styles to my personal tastes and was very hopeful that they would be available in the shop that day. Sadly, when I got to the gift shop, nothing of the sort was there, which was a bit of a bummer. But I understand I was probably just being a bit impatient and that perhaps these items would've come to the gift shop later that week or the following week. But because Greenfield is quite the drive away, I sadly wouldn't be able to come back so soon in the hopes that the items would be available at a later date. Oh well! Perhaps the next time I'm here, there'll be some of these options available to me in the gift shop, because they were truly beautiful, would be a great addition to my house, and I'm still thinking about them to this day!!

Went here today on a high school field trip. I walked in with my group, five girls and another…read moregroup who also had a chaperone of about six boys. All 9th grade kids. The kids were excited. They were trying on the sombreros, looking at the dresses, searapes and other various items. Were they loud? 100%. Were they being goofy? 100%. Were they rude, disrespectful or out of control? No. not at all. Never once did anyone from the store greet us, or say one word to us for that matter. After about 10 minutes a woman approached me, who I later found out was the owner, and told me that our time was up and we needed to leave "now". Obviously I was taken aback. She told me that the kids were being obnoxious and they picked up a pricing gun and were playing with it. I asked her if she had spoken to them. She had not. I asked if she talked to them upon arrival telling them to be careful and she said " I shouldn't have to". Now if this was my store, and I saw a school group coming in I might want to stop them at the door and remind them of my expectations on how to behave, what not to touch. perhaps I might only allow so many kids in at a time, etc. But this woman literally said nothing to us. She met us with a cold stare, ready to find fault. She said, these kids obviously have no intention to buy anything so they need to go "now" Which is strange because I didn't realize that's how stores worked. I thought we were allowed to browse whether or not we were purchasing. However, these kids did intend to buy but after her obnoxious behavior they ran out the door. She quickly followed them and as she got into her car she yelled at them "BYE AND NEVER COME BACK". The employee who was left in the store was super kind and explained to me that the woman was the owner and she gets very upset with school groups. Which Is wild to me because I can't imagine many people are coming down on a random Wednesday afternoon buying overpriced items that can be purchased elsewhere for much less. I'm planning a quinceanera for my daughter in September and we were looking for items to buy but I'm glad to know how this owner operates and we will no longer be visiting the store. Her actions were unreasonable, unprofessional and downright rude. So, no worries, store owner lady. We will definitely "never come back" and we will make sure all our friends know to do the same. * Was brought to my attention after the store owner left that in fact a small item had been broken. Which I paid for without question. Because that's how things work. Conversations are helpful (when they actually happen) and people respond well to reason and kindness

For example, candles with Detroit specific scents like "Detroit soul", "Detroit Love", "Belle Isle beach", "Eastern Market", and more. Also, fun, vintage beverage coasters. They even sell Faygo by the glass bottle. Classic! A great selection of books about Detroit too. Excellent and friendly customer service. I enjoyed my shopping spree here. They also have cool purses made from up-cycled seat belts that are indestructible, fashionable, and washable too. Made in Detroit, of course. Located inside the gorgeous Fisher Building, this store offer free tours of the Fisher Building on Saturdays. I attended the hour long tour today and it was awesome! Jacob did a great job. We even had access to floors of the Fisher that are not open to the general public. It was fascinating to hear more about the Fisher family, the creation of the building, the art and more. You can reserve the free tickets through the store's website/Eventbrite page. I definitely recommend taking the tour and shopping here.
