Wow! This shop made me feel like I had found Etsy in Apex! The shop features all sorts of artists and crafts people. The owner told me that the huge majority of things are handmade and most of the handmade things are from local artists. I found a great cross-body purse for my friend and plan to special-order others with initials or words on them. i understand that the artists in there and the work changes, but yesterday I saw about 5 totally different types of jewelry, pottery, handmade aprons, bibs and little crayon totes (great gift for young kids), painting, Christian message jewelry, wooden signs, awesome embroidered pillows, local soaps, BBQ sauce, salad dressing, books (local authors), this pig-turner thing that never saw before, journals, magnets, princess bracelets, wooden chopsticks, stained glass.... I can't even remember it all!!!! I also found some super-cute APEX swag, too! I'm telling you.... that place is dangerous! I can shop for every birthday present I ever need, though, so I guess it might also be a lifesaver! read more
