My youngest daughter lives in the area and I AM coming to visit her. But before I do I will be making a beeline to the shop to get my fix of everything I use and love.

I am easily distracted by bright and shiny things, so naturally this place caught my attention and…read moreI stopped in with my husband. We were greeted by another customer originally. I found this odd, given she was just sort of standing there with a bag and her purse, yet asking if we were looking for anything specific. Sooner or later a real employee came in. I'm presuming she stepped out to use the little girl's room or something. This store is packed full, and I mean full of stuff. There's some clothing, scarves, and leggings. There's every possible button you could ever want in your lifetime in here. Same goes with thread and ribbon. If you can't find what you're looking for in here, I highly doubt it exists. The store is easily filled with just 5 or 6 people because there is so much product crammed in here. The funny thing is even with so much product in such a tiny space, it is incredibly well organized. This is one of those places where if you're carrying a decent sized purse, turn around too fast, or are just a bit clumsy, it's pretty much guaranteed that you're going to crash into something. I found a hilarious pair of socks in here for my father in-law yesterday and went to buy them. As we're chatting with the employee, I grab ahold of my husband because he's about to run into a shelf. I can just see things spilling everywhere in my head and the mess he's going to create. As I'm trying to prevent what I think is less than a second away from becoming utter chaos, the employee reassured us that even working in the store and knowing where everything is, she still bumps shelves or runs into things almost daily. This simple warm reassurance relaxed me because I was nervous about being in such a small place and accidentally creating a huge mess for someone else to clean up. It's like going to someone's house and you're afraid to sit on any of the furniture kind of feeling. Not here. It's the relaxed, it happens kind of approach. Which is really what made it memorable to me. I heard another customer ask for a specific employee who had just left shortly before that. The customer wanted this employee because she could always find the customer the perfect buttons. If you ever find someone who has a knack for finding you exactly what you want when you're not even sure what that is, stalk them! Lol. That is a whole other level of customer service. But that also told me what kind of store this is, and that attention to details is a big deal to them. Would I return? Absolutely. It's a great store with a ton of products and incredible selection. The customer service is wonderful, warm, and welcoming. I certainly don't look like the kind of person who has crafting hobbies, and I only bought socks during my initial visit. Yet I was treated like I'd been in a thousand times and they knew me. I like that, and it is exactly why I will return when it's time to start a new craft project.

The Melissa and Dave brand toys are no more expensive than what you would find at Toys R Us, while the quality is noticeably better. The clothes are adorable, and again, comfortable to any "kid" label. What's really nice, however is the staff who run the place. They are so helpful and pleasant. Seriously, the store itself has a really mellow and happy feel to it. The staff aren't too busy to answer questions, the bring sales and deals to your attention, but don't hover. The store is moving from VRC to Gateway in July. From what I was told, they are expanding into resale as well. I'm really exited about this. As a grandma, I like to buy good second hand toys to keep in my house for visits. I genuinely recommend this business. It's such a great place and a nice alternative to the other "boutique" kids' store in town, where prices are much higher and service is much less a priority.

Took me a few extra minutes of driving around before I could figure out how to get into the parking lot because my maps took me a weird way. But if you enter McDonald's parking lot and park there, that's the easiest way to do it.
