The Front Porch feels like a catalogue come to life and I personally didn't care for it…read more A lot of the decor was made up of cheap throwaway items - think glitter and stuff that ends up at Ross or TJ Maxx. Nothing felt thoughtfully chosen, but more like bulk ordered from the Halloween section of a gift catalogue. Items that look good from far away but are essentially fast fashion decor. All in all, I recommend skipping it, it's not worth the drive out and I wouldn't return.

Everywhere you look its a work of art with carefully curated items of beautiful quality. And the smells...all the best smells. I keep going back for more of the candles and diffusers because I want my home to smell just like the store, though to be sure some of that is the leather goods and sweet aroma of antique wood. The owners are wonderful and the shop is wonderful! A MUST SEE!

I ended up buying three tins of $14 seeds, thinking they were 50%, but not so. They were 20% off. Even at that price they were too much. The cashier is not currently giving out bags, or receipts, and while the service is helpful, it's fairly clear they're ready to be done with the space. All in all, if you're in the area definitely drop in to check out if there are any great items or deals left.

While on my walk through Downtown Auburn, I had to stop inside Serendipity! The name is too catchy…read moreand the ramdom cute gift items inside were screaming at me to come in and take a look around! There were others inside looking around this gift shop. The shop keeper was at the register, maybe doing some paperwork. She was occupied and very quiet. Her store was very cute and I spent a lot of time looking at the earrings. I was trying to see if there was something I couldn't live without. I believe they were sterling silver and all around $18 each. There were bars of soap for men and women, earrings, candles... the kitchen towels with the clever sayings had me cracking up. I had to get one! After looking around the shop, I got to say hello and speak with the shop keeper. She was very sweet and pleasant. I liked that I was able to do a mobile payment. It made checking out fast & easy! On the weekends or during Downtown events, parking can be nearly impossible, but there is a small parking lot around the corner. I could easily spend the day out here going inside of every shop and picking at least one place to eat. There is plenty of popular eateries to choose from... that will leave you making the difficult decision of trying to pick where to eat!

Keep your politics and racist rhetoric about white people becoming the "minority" out of your business.

Do better.

"Best shop just found--give me more time!"…read more So read the text from my wife. I had dropped her off, and I was guzzling beer at the Aid Station Brewery one block over. I wasn't sure what shop she meant, but when I started down the sidewalk and saw Wildflower, I knew this was the shop she had in mind. Lots of fun, cheerful decorations in the window. I was positive THIS was the shop. Probably more than anything else, Wildflower specializes in greeting cards. The owner explained that people come from miles around to check out their excellent selection. Naturally, they have a ton more gift items, including figurines as well as candles. My wife also likes the little crow figurines they have near the counter. So all-in-all, a pleasant place to visit. Really nice people with a fun selection of products. Uh oh, my wife just texted me that she needs more time. Oh well, back to the brewery.

U.S. Artisan Marketplace is a beautiful little shop in downtown Auburn. The owner, Carolyn, is one…read moreof the sweetest people I've ever met. She takes such care in sourcing the products that are to be sold in the store. They're all ethically produced, and are high quality. There have been so many different types of products such as lotions, candles, pillows, clothing, hats, stickers, jewelry, chocolate bars, and olive oils. Because all items are sourced and researched by the owner, she tends to be very knowledgeable about any questions you may have while shopping. It might seem like the store is one big room, but climb up the steps in the back and you'll enter another section to shop. Up those stairs is the home of Carolyn's own jewelry line. They're all beautiful pieces, and I highly recommend checking them out. Something I've never seen in another store before is the bouquet bar. There's a section of wall with pots that house different types of plants and flowers. Pick some of those out, and then you'll have yourself a beautiful bouquet. I had one that lasted for a couple weeks! All the grocery store bouquets I've bought will usually die after 4-7 days. Even if you don't live near downtown Auburn, U.S. Artisan Marketplace is worth the drive.

The crystals and stones were very fair priced and they had cute little Aquarius sets (since it is Aquarius time) My critique would be for the person ringing up the purchases.

It was kinda awkward reaching for my things when there were other things on the counter
