They have lots of vintage clothes, books, games, music, toys, art, indoor and outdoor furniture, signs, decor - literally everything.

Tacky new old stock. This A Frame gift shop is stuck in a 1975 time warp. There were jellies and…read morecandy and wild rice. I personally would not recommend buying as one assumes it's outdated like everything in this store. At the entrance there is a car from the 1970's with flat tires. There are plenty of native American or do I say Indigenous people handicrafts. The new old stock is 1980 type of t shirts, magnets, alligator teeth, etc. I didn't buy anything. Nothing appealed to me. The red letters on outside on building need to be repainted badly. They sell Minnetonka Moccasin shoes but many looked outdated. There is 1 A frame building and a side room with more stuff. If you're looking for Quirky, this store fits the bill.

This locally owned, multi-generational family business is just shy of their 100 year anniversary…read more Established in 1920, they produce high quality woolen items including jackets, sweaters, hats, mittens/gloves, scarves, pillows and some heavy-duty blankets. They also have felted slippers, hats, etc. alongside many other high-quality northwoods apparel and decor. Worried about the authenticity of it being, "handmade"? Fear not, you can witness it for yourself in the large sewing room off the back of the shop where they have commercial machines in operation. They gained some recognition for providing sweater vests in 2012 to Rick Santorum, http://www.citypages.com/news/rick-santorum-gives-bemidji-woolen-mills-a-shoutout-concedes-to-romney-6560427.

"It's' cheaper than therapy"…read more A must see/do when visiting Bemidji! Staff was so welcoming and helpful when trying to figure out what to create. The actual owner was there and she walked me through the process-awesome lady named Sandy! SInce I was traveling, it was suggested to paint with acrylic so I could take it home with me right away. There are about 50 or more items to paint that were mostly hand molded right in the store! There were so many options for paint colors, sponges, paint brushes and tools to create my masterpiece. On the walls were a local artists paintings as well. This only enhanced the bright and colorful decor of the studio. Glazed and Amused is part of a Friday morning art crawl, which is why the local art was displayed. I love to support local businesses and artists even when traveling!
