I know the struggle is real when it comes to choosing what to buy as a Christmas gift for our…read morefamily. So the week before, hubs and I scoured this tiny- but mighty shop at the corner of Tannery Brook Rd & Tinker St. in Woodstock. The size of this shop makes it cute. The location is cute. Hell, the products are cute. These ladies have a selection of minimalist-meets-unusual lifestyle and home items ranging from candles, door stoppers, jewelry, blankets, throws, outdoor mats and so much more done tastefully. This was almost a one-stop-shop place for us as we crossed some people off our Christmas list. Between the sofa pillow I got for my Mom, (2) small ceramic candle holders, a fuzzy scarf and tapered candles- things were looking good. Since my daughter's sorority's mascot is an Elephant, I also purchased her an Elephant wooden door stopper I couldn't pass up. List or not, I'd come back any other time to pick up something for myself.

I used to make a yearly pilgrimage to Walkabout to get some very special items--then I moved too far away. It looks as though it shut in 2020. If someone else took it over, I would love to go back.

She was stomping around angrily before we got in and when my friend asked if she can try something on the girl was very nasty and told her no one has ever asked her that before.

I purchased a game that toy don't normally find in big box stores and after checking online, saw that it was priced rather fairly. Other reviews have noted the huge markup which is probably true on certain things. Know what something is worth or do a quick search to see if you're willing to pay for it. I didn't have a problem with the staff but others have said she wasn't kid friendly.

A few years back we…read morewere here and I bought a small Edgar Allan Poe figure (my favorite author)...it was a little pricey, but I wanted it. This year we stopped in again, and they do still have a pretty cool inventory, but the prices for some of the stuff I wanted was just way too much. We try our best to buy from local places when it's reasonable, but it wasn't.

One thing to mention is that the café at this B&N serves Starbucks drinks and bites, but it's not an independent, standalone Starbucks spot. I've been coming here for books, yearly wall calendars, writing pads and similar items for since I've been in the Catskills. The service has always been friendly and helpful. While they discontinued the Teacher Rewards membership, there are still other membership perks I can enjoy too. It's a great bookstore with a welcoming atmosphere, well-organized and it's nice having it nearby.

Namely, restaurants, bars, and adorable shops like this, which is how we spent a lot of our leisure time back in the before times. Light House had hand sanitizer by the door and masks on all the employees, but other than those much appreciated concessions to COVID, it felt like a wonderfully normal shopping experience. This place is stocked with all kinds of high-quality home goods. They've got pottery, candles, appliances, textiles, wrapping paper, adorable baby clothes, toys, stuffed animals, cards, cookware, and a million other items my wife wants to buy (even though we probably only need a dozen of them). Her favorite things they have? Hand soap, laundry detergent, and dish soap in giant jugs so you can bring your own refillable containers and purchase by the ounce without destroying our environment. (We both hug trees on a regular basis.) My favorite things they have? A really interesting selection of books, and a comfortable couch I can sit and read on as my wife looks at everything else. This is a great little shop. Check it out.

Light House is a really nice store. I've been going here since they were located down the street;…read morethis used to be the liquor store (which also moved), and they done a good job making use of the space. There's a hodgepodge of home goods in here. Think kitchen items (food and food oriented, like recipe books), children's clothing/toys, bathrooms items (soap and shit) and other household odds and ends. Fellas: it smells really good and your wife/girlfriend will like it. My only gripe is that it can be irrationally expensive. I bought a kids stuffed animal for my son awhile ago which was around $40. It was hand sewn, however even so that's a bit steep. Think this as a place where you'll pay a bit more for quality goods and this won't bother you as much.

This shop on N Front St, off the ever-busy Main St. in New Paltz is mostly targeted at women- although there are some nice masculine and even gender-neutral items (incense, rings and other goods) in their collection that slap with boho-chic funk and style that have a unique touch to give you amazing looks. I particularly loved a puffy, iridescent lilac hand clutch that mentally told me, 'buy me'. Their incense+accessories section is one I didn't want to pass by. I like Nag Champa- but Verde's incense selection and the BOTANICA incense brand these folk carry, isn't one to ignore. The Rainier scent drew me in and bought a box. Great service. Decent prices.
