While I'm familiar with the Blakeney Shopping Center, I made my way into Creative by Nature for the…read morefirst time last week. I was a little apprehensive, even though i live and breathe design oriented stores. Just walking in made my adrenaline flow! I saw brands that i know and love and an eclectic bunch of accessories and "chotchkies" that make the store stand out from everyone else! The owners are brilliant with their buying and merchandising expertise and I'm now in love! The store fits in perfectly with the Blakeney vibe and demographic and I hope they grow and prosper for many years to come. What a pleasure it was to see such a beautiful shop and meet and work with some of the friendliest and most welcoming staff. I will be back, for sure!!!!

This was my first solo antique shopping experience in charlotte 2 years ago and I have been back 2x since! Always such cool finds! See pics for some of the fun things I've bought/almost bought. Tons of parking as well. Bathroom inside.

This is a great little shop with a lot in it for being so small. The prices are pretty good…read moregenerally but some of the items are a little bit overpriced (for example a simple small glass bowl was $3 but a cute little metal with decorations was also $3) I always visit the shop whenever I'm in town because it's just so conveniently close and they usually have one or two things that I like whether it be small knickknacks or useful household items. Today I picked up a brand new dish drying rack for only three dollars! They also give away the occasional bakery item, which I find really nice. Most of them are just past their best by date, but are still good to eat. The young lady at the counter is always very cheerful and nice to talk to. She's been there the last two times I have been and has always been very nice and helpful. Greeting us as soon as we come in. Will be back!

Everything here is basically handmade or painted, so it's unique and you won't walk into your neighbors house and find the same setup as the chain retail furniture places. I wasn't sure if I could haggle so I just found something sighing my price range. This place is so cozy it's like each section is a part of your home and you could totally see every single piece in your House. That's amazing. I've lived two minutes a way for 13 years and never took to patronizing the shops on Main more than once. Mainly because I assumed it was out of my price range. But guess what...it isn't and you get what you pay for. And quality costs and here I wouldn't mind. Definitely will return for more goodies. Oh and the sales lady was nice and inviting and very help

I fell in love with a couple pieces of furniture at Madison's, yet I was disappointed by the…read morecustomer service. I walked around in the store today, and not a single person greeted me. There were a couple of ladies circled in the back of the store engaged in conversation. Aside from this intimate circle, no one else was in the store. Also, it is a small store, so you absolutely can see when someone comes in. The cold shoulder led me to leave the store, and visit Kiki's Kottage (which is only a few doors down) where I was promptly and warmly greeted. Kiki's has beautiful pieces, and I purchased a gorgeous buffet there. I had a stellar customer service experience from start to finish at Kiki's. I was prepared to purchase items at Madison's, but too bad no one cared to acknowledge me as a customer whatsoever.

As such the hours are a bit limited. Really I wouldn't want to talk to anyone else though. This woman knows here stuff. I've browsed the store a time or two and you can really get lost in here. Even if you don't end up buying anything, it's certainly an experience. I see lots of potential for gift shopping here. Prices aren't the best as I imagine many of the items could be purchased online or at a shop more off the beaten path for less. On the flip side of that, the owner will give you a history lesson on practically any item. She is constantly perusing the internet for values with antiques websites and ebay forever open on her computer. It's great that the store isn't limited to a few types of antiques of one particular genre. There's furniture and décor throughout. Old tools, kitchen wares, wooden boxes, music boxes, old-timey pictures and lots of jewelry ranging from costume to gem encrusted gold. Again, if you know someone who likes antiques with a birthday coming up you will easily find something worth buying here.

This was all at 3:00 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. Wouldn't recommend going here unless you want to get harassed or treated very rudely.
