I'm a sucker for unusual glassware, pottery, jewelry, books, candles etc. Sad that most of the clothes don't come in plus sizes. We gals like those clothes too. Staff were nice and not overly obtrusive. Parking is tight, as it shares the lot with Roots.

I have gotten yoga pants here discounted for 38 bucks and they are so worth it. The people that work here are helpful and friendly. Love Jenny. Also Tanya is cool too and the girl with long blonde hair, sorry sometimes I am good with names.

This shop is so much fun. They have so many unusual items; some whimsical, some collectible, and…read moresome unique. We laughed at some of the gifts that would make perfect stocking stuffers or gag gifts. Some were quite irreverent and some perfect for that friend who has a "colorful" vocabulary, I was tempted by a lovely miniature fountain in the shop's window. It looked like it came straight out of a New England courtyard. Unfortunately, I just didn't have the right place for it. On a rack of clothing was a gorgeous sweater but was sadly a size small and I'm not a size small (sigh). Our daughter collects miniatures and found an adorable tiny ceramic turtle right away. We bought her as a souvenir of our day. In the back is an area with antiques that I haven't really explored. I know someone like my daughter, who has the stamina, could spend hours browsing in Bearing Gifts. So much to see, so much to enjoy.

This is a well curated children's clothing boutique tucked away in Cross Keys. The ladies who work…read morehere were personable, friendly, and genuinely interested in helping me get what I needed. They provided suggestions and advised me about brands I wouldn't have heard of otherwise. They even went the extra mile to pull things up online, to better illustrate a couple offerings they did not have currently in stock but could special order for me if needed.

What a surprise. FYI: I am in my late 30s and do not have children. I can't remember why my…read morehusband, my brother in law, and I wandered into Doc Taylor's Toy Emporium when we were exploring Old Ellicott City last weekend (something in the window must have caught our eyes), but it was such a pleasant surprise. The store is very large (two stories) and so well stocked. We found lots of classics that we remembered from our childhoods and even made a purchase for ourselves (toys are for adults, too, right?). If you need to purchase a toy for someone or if you're just looking for something a little fun as a treat, stop in. They might have something surprising and fun!

This is what the world is missing. Toy stores seem to be a thing of the past and that's sad because…read morethey bring so much joy. We surprised our daughters with a Friday afternoon trip to Old Ellicott City to visit this toy emporium I saw on Instagram. We were met with what I believe to be the largest selections of squishables I've ever seen. I even left with a sizable one myself. My kids were pleasantly surprised by all of the options and had fun exploring both floors of this establishment. The prices were on the higher end in comparison to Amazon but who wants to wait for the mail when you can just go home with what you want? :-) There appeared to be only one person manning the place at the time but he was friendly. It wasn't busy at all. I heard it's only been open a year or so and I can see the growth potential if we keep spreading the word about this hidden gem. I'm excited to bring others back to find their new squishy friend.

But since my bank account doesn't carry that many zeros, I made do with a small purchase - a soup and bread bowl (funny, I eat a lot of soup and bread).
