The girl behind the counter was rude as H3ll. Like girl, I did not make you work here. She kept trying to sell me a different item than what I wanted. I ended up reluctantly purchasing item I wanted, against her will it seemed, as I really needed it. Going forward they do not have to worry about stepping foot in there again. My daughter went last week unknowingly to me and also had a terrible experience with the same person. I like to support local businesses , but this girl needs some customer service training.

Today I went in looking for a my daughters 2nd birthday party decorations (trying to plan it out). I'm looking to do a monsters inc/monsters university "boo is 2" theme. They did not have anything monsters. I tried to ask the staff about possibly ordering what I'd like to the store, pick up & pay later. But the staff informed me I'd have to do online, pay & shipped to home. One staff member says I'd have better luck with Amazon. As much as I love Amazon, I don't like ordering everything online, I like buying in person all at once & return as I don't need instead of holding on to things to ship back. On a side note, they still had Mardi Gras stuff & St. Patty's day stuff which I definitely enjoyed looking at lol but I also noticed the Halloween stuff was patchy not much to choose from (mostly just kids) tho this isn't just a party store... It seemed to me that everyone orders online these days so it seemed a little empty & "ehhhh" didn't feel super excited walking in.

Delivery was accepted. I was charged. But, I received an email the day of delivery stating that the bulk of my items were no longer available. They were going to charge me to deliver napkins and plates. Everything else, especially the balloons were not coming. I tried to contact them to no avail. The napkins and plates never even arrived. What a joke. Thanks for charging me for nothing. Winn Dixie saved the day with the balloons. You should not offer delivery if you can't manage your inventory or actually deliver. I even tipped ahead.

The one downside is that the line in the fabric room can get long and it's first come first served, so when I just needed a roll of ribbon I had to stand behind 15 people who needed fabric cut. That was tedious. They don't have as many different throws as some of the other places, but this is a good place to come to fill in the gaps.

Listen to it. https://youtu.be/Fb4jguPLceQ Ok, now that you are done, here are my thoughts on the store, which are similar to the lyrics "Ma Sherie Amour, lovely as a summer day" in that everything here seems to flow with the mood of summer. I came in one late afternoon with a friend from out of town. We were window shopping in the Quarter, she had seen this store the previous day and wanted to come back. I am so glad she brought me in here. Colorful trinkets, cute earrings, and these amazing stringed flying winged creatures. I know that last part sounds weird, and it is odd, but one long string, you attach the appropriate end to the ceiling and let it hang. Spread on the string are various sizes of butterflies, birds, and they are just so lovely. There was home décor, cute sweaters that when you extend your arms while wearing it, it appears that there are wings on your back. I will be back for gifts in the future. Everything is so delicate, I would not recommend bringing in small children with curious fingers.
