Stickers. Trinkets. Gizmos. Gadgets. Whozits. Whatzits. You could spend hours in here looking at all of the creativity, humor, and the immaculately curated whimsical elegance of everything in between. Local artists. Small businesses. Fresh brands. Major franchises. And everything in between. Yeah, you could be a jagoff and scan everything and possibly find a cheaper price by $0.50 on Amazon... but didn't you just fill enjoy the curation of this store to the value of that $0.50. Somehow even with tight aisles and every nook and cranny accounted for... the employees keep this all perfectly organized. If you are in Shadyside, you'd be a fool to not take a lap through here.

Set on two levels they have much Pittsburgh themed merchandise. Some of this merchandise I have seen in other stores but some were very unique. Set on two levels they currently have Christmas merchandise reduced by 30% They sell different types of giftware including tea towels with clever sayings on them. Beautiful scented candles in small milk jars, artwork, elixir bottles, baby gifts and so much more. They even have an area where you can get a box called "gather" in different sizes. You can then put what you want in it and they will handle the shipping for you or you can take care of it yourself. Depending upon what you buy items can be a bit pricey. I was blown away by a Pittsburgh painted water bottle. Although it was a slightly higher than what I would pay the detail on it is amazing and it does keep beverages cold for a while once outside the refrigerator. With that i purchased a holiday candle and ornament that was reduced. This is a great store if you're looking for something different or can't get to any place else to shop for local merchandise. Located on Beaver St in the Sewickley business district, metered street parking is available.

She was kind and detailed in her explanation of prices, processes, and turnaround times. When I learned that the turnaround was a little longer than I had hoped, Dana did not skip a beat or offer me any less service when inquiring how to knot them on my own. She afforded me the ability to try two different sizes of silk and got me set up with all the tools that I would need, along with a good dose of encouragement! Dana reassured me that if it didn't work out, they would be available to assist me in a class, or to string them for me. I highly recommend you just stop in to see their amazing offerings and for their excellent, friendly and helpful customer service. I believe your experience will be similar to mine.

Have no fear, Maggie & Stella's is here to offer you kitchen trinkets, quilty bags, and costume jewelry to save your face. If the demographic you are shopping for is an old woman, a young woman with old lady taste, or a 40 year old woman who REALLY enjoys wine, you will easily find something that will please any of those groups. If you are shopping for someone else, it will be painfully obvious that you just picked something up here because it was close. Hopefully they will just appreciate your lack of forethought and not gift-shame you. You're better off finding a gift/card/other waste of money in the University Store (formerly bookstore).

Much merchandise is handmade by artisans. I think that most products are geared toward women and that some products would be appreciated by men. I selected a wine bag, two bath products, and one greeting card. The prices of these products were low to moderate. The cashier correctly rang up my purchase, and she wished me a good day.

If they make it in black and gold, this place probably has it. They have a decent selection of shirts, hats and apparel. I was even able to find a coat on sale in a 4X, a size that is typically hard to find anywhere. They also had a large assortment of Pittsburg sports related trinkets. Everything from jewelry to "man cave" signs. The craziest find for me was the "my cat purrs black and gold" magnet. There are always tons of dog products and cats are usually left out, so I enjoyed being able to purchase something related to both the Steelers and cats. Before you visit, take note that they do not accept credit or debit cards. They do have an on site ATM and also accept checks. Overall, a great store to visit if you aren't sure what to get your favorite sports fan. You may just find a hidden gem like the above mentioned cat magnet.
