I've seen the Purple Cow advertised time and time again in local theatre programs, but never had…read morethe chance to visit until a few days ago. Boy, am I glad I took the time to check them out! This is a fantastic little local business that redefines the concept of "shopping small" by offering a wide array of locally made products - everything from handmade clothing to soaps and creams. The next time you have a present to buy for someone, the Purple Cow should be the first stop you make. Speaking of presents, they even have a section of birthday and special occasion cards, which makes it an easy one stop shop for all your gifting needs. While a lot of the inventory tends to lean toward the yogi-earthy-crunchy set, they have a great section of toys and stuffed animals for the young and young at heart, plus a whole lot of classy jewelry that's also made by local artisans. The Purple Cow is a must visit if you find yourself in Wakefield, RI, and need to purchase a memorable gift for a loved one, or simply just want to browse around a truly wonderful small local business!

I love to peruse the beautiful handmade and made with love stitch work, crocheting, jewelry, clothing, plates and jars, wooden toys, decorations, holiday festive crafts. Everything is made impeccably well. My latest purchase was for Christmas gifts! So much more meaningful buying locally handmade items! I bought a beautiful bracelet for my mom that clasps by magnets, easy for her to get on and off. Other items I bought were handmade ornaments and decorations for the holiday season. Everything is very beautiful and reasonably priced. I feel so much better walking away with quality items that are directly supporting local artisans, versus buying at the bigger box stores. This is a great place to meet locals, buy local, support local, and be inspired!

It was perfect for my 12 and 9 year old grandchildren and me on a hazy July afternoon. We bought several shells, Christmas tree ornaments, sea glass, and stickers. They picked out a lovely bracelet and earrings for their mother. The prices were fair and the shop was well organized for easy browsing. Parking was easy. The salesclerk was friendly. Nice ocean side shopping next to Narragansett Beach.

However, they have a small collection of themed goods and if they can glue a sea shell on it, you can probably find it here. Some of it is tacky, to be fair.

I was long overdue for a treat, so I paid Amber a visit this past weekend & my heart grew three sizes that day. I heart Amber, her energy, her taste, her philosophies, her creativity, & her genuine, infectious laugh. Every bit of Nico Scout reflects Amber & every bit of Amber is reflected in Nico Scout. What a selection of products! When I don't know what to get someone as a gift, I go to Nico Scout. Amber has done the hard work of thinking & collecting & curating, so that I can just show up & get inspired. I always find something for someone, & it's usually something I never knew existed. Last year I found an incredible book in the store about Black American musicians & the conception of jazz. I didn't know this book existed & didn't know I needed it until I saw it. It came home with me, of course, & was a perfect gift for a good friend of mine. Books, clothes, knick knacks, art, pottery, plants, homewares, etc. There is so much goodness here, running the entire gamut of price. There's something for every person & every budget here. I am so glad this little paradise exists & I can't wait to see what Amber has in store for 2025 - I hear that workshops might be on the horizon? Sign me up, please.
