They have so many neat and unique things, and it's a one stop shop for your gift for others (or yourself) needs! They always have good deals going on, and the employees are always so helpful! The store is very well organized and placed so it's easy to go through and see everything. The items are placed low enough so everyone can reach without a problem, and if you need any assistance, they are ready with a smile on their face!

I'd never ordered here before since I live out of state, but I decided to give it a try. I placed an online order for next-day delivery and asked if they could send me a picture of the finished bouquet and candle. That evening, they texted me a photo, and it was perfect--just gorgeous! The recipient was thrilled and told me the flowers were stunning, super fresh, and smelled amazing. The Lavender and Lemongrass candle was such a lovely touch too. Highly recommend!!

Hubby wanted to indulge me by stopping at a quilt shop during our trip to Illinois and back. The…read morefirst two quilt shops had been closed. I almost didn't want to bother, but he had tried so hard to get me there before it closed. Half of this place is devoted to gifts and cute household decorations. Turn right as you enter and you'll be headed toward all the home dec items. I almost couldn't believe it. There really was a quilt shop inside here. That's to the left as you enter the door. Hubby quickly found his favorite area. There was plenty of Star Wars fabric. We got some of each, to add to what we had already collected. Now I'll be able to start on that sci-fi quilt for the hubby. There were traditional fabrics such as Civil War era prints, colorful modern prints, and plenty of Moda. Sample quilts were hanging in the classroom area. Cute purses showcased the patterns that were for sale. This business is located on the NW corner of Coal City Rd and the northern end of Division Rd. (actually S. Frontage Rd. on the N side of Coal City). The Yelp map is wrong. If you are going by the map in Quilter's Travel Companion, it's wrong, too. It wasn't easy to turn around on a two-lane gravel road with ditches on each side with our 16-foot trailer, but it was worth the extra trouble to be able to visit at least *one* quilt shop on this trip.

We really enjoyed our visit at this reindeer ranch!

The highlight was the running train in the middle on top floor as you sit and sip on the hot cider while waiting for our reindeer tour at around noon. Luckily at the time we went we were the only once so we basically got a private tour. Who knew reindeers love graham crackers? It had snowed a couple days before so it was so special to see all the reindeer in the snow. The lovely gal answered a lot of our questions about the farm and the reindeer and my 4 yo daughter really loved feeding and patting the friendly and soft reindeers. It looked like they had a fun playground and an onsite cafe (it was closed) and some other amenities around but they were all covered in snow when we went. The only thing is it would have been nice if they plowed their parking lot after the snow for safety. This was in the same town we were visiting family so it was very close. I thought it was worth the price ($12) and I would recommend this for other families to come check out with their little ones and have a unique experience!

I wish they had some proper drinks like cider or something for the hot days but they just had this smashed pumpkin pie with icecream and a donut on top.

I purchased some napkins with a cute saying for a friend, a chunky knit blanket for another recovering from surgery. There are so many items and they range in prices so anyone can and should find something for everyone. They also have new items coming in every week so you cannot get bored shopping there. Val, the owner does Facebook videos when she gets new products which is great. The amount of people in the store is limited and they have hand sanitizer you must use when you walk in. For doing so, I was gifted a small lotion packet which I thought was sweet. They will also do curbside if you shop online or call in for a product you saw and need it right away.

Once during a town fest and another during a regular business day and both times the owner of the The Villager Card & Gift Shop was a delight to interact with regardless of the potential stressors she may have been feeling of the day. She has lots of cute items for gifts for all sorts of events and occasions. I especially loved the uniquely shaped sterling silver earrings made by a local artist in Little Village so much I had to grab them! There was another pair there that were equally as cute I loved I debated about, thinking they'd make a cute Christmas or holiday gift for someone!! I am a HUGE believer in supporting small & local businesses. So the fact that The Villager Card & Gift Shop supports other local artists is one thing that'll keep me coming back again & again to see what new & exciting things are there.

I deducted one star due to some of the gift shop items "white washing" Jesus and other biblical figures.
