Wow!! I have no idea how long this store has been here on 71st street. I sure am glad that I…read moredecided to step in rather than join my family next door on "tax free day-weekend." I found a lot of neat items that can be placed in home, for good use. Just right in time for Halloween. This is one of the unique places if you're wanting to spend less. I mean less than TJMAXX but better quality than Dollar Tree. I have been on a Halloween/fall decor kick for over 17 years. This is store will help you cover most of your budgeting too. They did have a good selection of hair care, personal hygiene, home crafts, and kid friendly stuff'. I think you should go in and check it out. This place reminds me of a TG&Y from my yester-years of shopping.

We came for a doormat and there were plenty to choose from, along with other things to choose from to decorate your household. After being successful of finding a doormat, we took a look around at everything & there was a nice selection things based on what you're looking (household items for the most part). As for me, I was looking for the snacks. There are some chips that I see from another store that I found out after the fact came at a lower price, so now I have to go try them out when I + we go back. I can us coming here often to get inspiration on how to spice up the house. We saw a lot of stuff for the kitchen that we thought about getting. pOpshelf is in the shopping center where Kohl's is. It's surrounded by other retail & food spots in walking distance. The employees at the store were very nice.

Indie Emporium = Etsy in real life…read more There were so many crafters showcasing such neato awesome things that, 1) it's hard not to blow a gazillion dollars buying plaid bowties or owl jewelry or Oklahoma-themed T-shirts (Seriously had to talk myself out of buying a set of anatomical print dessert plates), and 2) it WILL make you wish you were a crafty person (Already crafty people are sure to find some inspiration looking at the booths.). But with great craft talent comes great crowds seeking Christmas presents or home decor items; this place was PACKED. I almost lost my mind in the shuffle and press of people looking at the booths. The organizers should consider spreading out the exhibits a little more to make the experience less claustrophobic.

Crafting used to be for old people - not anymore!…read more Indie Emporium is a cute craft show with 60 local vendors. You can find anything from dishes to jewelry. It was my first year going and I was impressed with everything I saw. Admission is $5, which lets you in the whole weekend (Thanks Yelp for the free tickets!!). The first 50 people on Friday got a swag bag that was supposedly filled with amazing things. I wouldn't know since I didn't get one - not that I'm bitter or anything (F.Y.I. Getting there RIGHT when it opens = too late for the freebies. The lobby was PACKED before the doors were even open). Saturday afternoon, they have free crafting sessions (specific crafts to be made/schedule is on their website). Saturday night, they have a fashion show. The only thing I really, really hated was how packed it was. A show like this REALLY needs a bigger space. Often, I couldn't even look at a vendor's booth because there were SO many people/booths were TINY. Luckily, crowds started to thin out an hour into the event. Another downside is parking downtown....hopefully you're lucky enough to find a street spot. If not, you can take a chance like me and park in a random parking lot...and hope your car doesn't get towed.

Pros: this is where I go to pick up gifts for people I don't know well, but feel obligated to get…read morethem things. Think bosses, secretaries, children's teachers, etc. i usually end up wandering the store again and again until I settle on a random item. This places accepts credit cards and does complimentary gift wrapping. For my fiancé's secretary and schedulers during Christmas $50 candles. Packaging was divine and came in appropriate old lady scents. They raced about them. For my own bosses during the holidays, light up novelty tumblers and jars of chocolate chip cookies. On this occasion, I came to get a birthday gift for my boss. Personalized items are the best! You can get anything personalized. It shows the person that you took time to get it made, but can still be rather impersonal. Think personalized wine glasses or luggage. Cons: this location was close to my massage place so I came here. It doesn't have parking and I had to walk far to get here. Will definitely just stick to the location closer to my home.

On a Whim is a must-stop when you are anywhere near Brookside!…read more I was so happy when they brought On a Whim to Tulsa and Brookside is the perfect place. On a Whim carries more up-scale designers. They have clothing, hand bags, shoes, jewelry, baby, and home accents. Also, one of my favorites, On a Whim is one of the few stores in Tulsa to carry Kendra Scott jewelry! The staff is very energetic and always willing to help. It is a very fun store. There is street parking along Peoria, but there is also a large lot behind the store. Again, it is somewhat expensive, but this is the place to find the designer brands. So, you should stop by, On a Whim!

We all know those people that it's simply hard to shop for...here, you'll at least find something funny for them without spending a ton of money. They have a ton of stuff and yet they have it set-up in an organized manner even if it doesn't seem like it, the employees know exactly where to find everything. I actually felt bad because some immature teens were messing around with the adult items section in the back...it must be annoying to clean up after them, having to put everything back in place...especially since they didn't purchase anything! Anyway...you can find super random stuff here that you have absolutely no need for yet still want to buy (lava lamps, posters, blacklights, disco balls, blow up dolls..). This is also the place to come to if you're planning a bachelorette or a 21st birthday party, there's a ton of themed stuff, including decorations and games!
