I am visiting the island from California and I happen to be walking downtown and I found this super…read morecute shop. I am so glad I found this very tiny and adorable shop. I was able to get some new jewelry for myself and some gifts as well. The owner is so delightful and apparently she is the artist who makes most of the work there. I would recommend this shop for local handmade gifts to take home.

I always make a point of stopping in when I'm in the area, and I always pick up something fun like a greeting card or sticker. They also have an impressive selection of clothing and accessories, journal supplies, and all sorts of random ephemera that you really have to see to believe. Their prices are super fair, especially on candles and jewelry. Third Planet may not be full of anything I really "need" but I always seem to find a way to spend money there!

Look no further than Cresswell Boggs, which is practically across the street from Mallard Ice Cream, so after you are done dropping your hard earned cash at the ice cream store, take a walk over here! The stuff in the store has a lot of my favorite items by Fred, Lip Shit, Accoutrements, Douglas toys and other gag items. They've managed to assemble all the gag gifts (and some really nice ones too) under one roof. Be prepared to spend a lot of money here. The inflatable cat unicorn horn was $9.99 here and $6.99 at Archie McPhee in Seattle. But still, take into consideration that you are in a historical town and you don't have to look further than a few steps for everything zany (and not so zany). Parking is on the street and metered parking is free on weekends and holidays. I didn't know this and fed the parking meter money on a Saturday (3/25/17) until I saw the sticker on the meter. Doh! (if you see duplicate photos, pls ignore. It appears Yelp has stopped linking my previously updated photos to my new reviews)

What an adorable shop!!…read more I was just walking down the sidewalk to another destination but their window display caught my eye and I wandered inside. I left with a cozy sweatshirt but easily could have purchased way more. The candle selection was amazing, they had a variety of perfumes, locally-themed books, shirts/sweatshirts, handknit hats, and even some gorgeously colored super-bulky yarn. The employee I spoke with was friendly and helpful. Parking is also fairly easy to come by (at least midweek in winter). Definitely recommend Wild Hemlock if you're looking for fun local gifts for others or a nice treat for yourself.

The cover of the Bible had a unique design on it. So, I took it to Bison, and Kevin did a great job of incorporating the original cover into a new cover.
