Beautiful Pandora and jewlery selection. A fun / lively staff that are there to help you and figure what works best for you. The BEST Christmas window displays in town. Lots of thought and love has gone into making this shop. One of Nanaimo's best treasures. Downtown shopping area has been turned around, check it out. Way more fun than the mall or malls( plural for Nanaimo).

Ordered and paid for a set of dishes on Jan 2/15 and was told they'd arrive the end of the month…read moreand they'd phone. On Feb 7th I called them and they didn't have any and offered to order them in (again I guess) and they'd take a week or two... Or they could box up the open set they have (the display set that's been there all along). I've waited 5 weeks already and you were supposed to have ordered them Jan 2nd! Not even an apology! Just bad service...

They even have a certified herbalist. Fantastic.

Some of the displays are well laid out and done very well for viewing selection options. Being from out of town the actual store location seemed a bit sketchy to me. That's just me. Owner and staff were pleasant and helpful, and more importantly, knowledgeable. All I can say is that it's an alternative to the big box art store experience.
