We went to this gift shop in pursuit of two things - gifts for our kids to bring back from our trip…read moreto Milwaukee and an ornament (we have a tradition where we purchase a location specific ornament from any place we travel to). There was a good selection of ornaments, so we did find one we liked. There was also a great selection of Milwaukee gear (shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, puzzles, etc.). We did strike out on gifts for our kids, as there wasn't anything age appropriate for them. Very cute, nonetheless!

Argosy is an Interesting home accessories store. Different than the typical mass market paintings,…read morebowls, vases, Argosy has some unique and handcrafted items that are not available in the big-box stores. There's a odd mix of things here, from handbags and key-chains and jewelry, to candles, tableware and specialty foods. Oddly enough, I really liked this store, even as I recognized I'd have no place suitable for displaying any of what it carried. My decorating style isn't quite so formal. I was really struck by how well coordinated things were, the flow of the store encouraged me to keep browsing and led me from one surprise to another. The little dogs made of beads were adorable and as close as I came to thinking "maybe." The manager was as nice as could be and tried valiantly to get me to buy something, even offering suggestions for the bottled artichoke relish. And as tempting as it all was - I didn't want to pack it. So, I left empty-handed. Still, I'd stop here again simply because I can enjoy looking at things more knowing I don't have to clean it, dust it, or figure out where to put it.
