So negligent in writing this review, but a staunch believer that everything is for a reason. The reason in this case was that I learned about more fabulous items sold at I'm S.H.E. during my second visit.
Discovered this unique store while waiting for food order at nearby vendor. The decor intrigued me, and immediately gravitated to the collection of semi-precious stones, unique t-shirts and the warm ambiance. I was greeted upon entry by Raven, the sales clerk and Dr. Shanique, the owner. Raven assisted with my many inquiries as Dr. Shanique escorted other patrons up the winding staircase.
I settled on bracelets for my daughter and myself from the vast array of semi precious stones. Garnet for my January baby and aventurine and chakra colored stones for me. Yes, I deserved two bracelets. Smile. Chose aventurine due to it being known to boost creativity and can use all the help I can get with writing! Chakra stone bracelet selected for its numerous properties including clearing, revitalizing and healing. Raven wrapped each item and placed in a logoed bag.
After the patrons descended from the upper level and had photos taken at decorative wall with signage, I inquired about the services offered. Learned more about oracle card readings and reiki offered, and was invited to view upper level where these services took place.
As I ascended the spiral staircase, I saw several photographs on the wall and other beautiful decorations. Dr. Shanique shared her background with me, and stated that the photos were of ancestors. There were many photos of warm smiles and others more serious that spanned decades.
As a little background information, the first visit was in October of this year shortly after I'm S.H.E. opened. Fast forward to the week before Thanksgiving, when once again craving neighboring vendor I noticed the door of I'm S.H.E. open. The owner was there and despite it being close to closing Dr.Shanique greeted me with the same great energy experienced during initial meeting. I shared how much my Capricorn loved her bracelet and promised to bring her to shop soon.
I also observed packets with healing items including elderberry seeds and bladder wrack (sp.?). There were more selections, but those were the ones I purchased as I had been looking for bladder wrack for a while. There were also items to assist with healthy weight loss that are now on my future visit list. I definitely fell in love again with I'm S.H.E. Looking forward to my next visit to this EAV jewel!!! read more
