The hotel partners with the shop, offering guests 10% off purchases, so we stopped in here every single day--even twice one day--to stock up on souvenirs and gifts. The selection of items was great! We found several things for everyone back home. Prices were SO reasonable, especially with the extra 10% off. Staff was nice and remembered us each time we came in, joking on the last day that we were their favorite customers since we had been there so many times LOL! Overall, this shop is great. Will absolutely be back next time I'm in Alexandria!

I have been in this store three times and she was extremely helpful and engaging during our visit. her daughter was great checking me out with my purchases. While I was there the candles I love... that are made by a veteran, happen to swing by with new products geared towards Christmas scents. They were fantastic. There is a few different artists for photography. Their work is stunning. There are things like art, jewelry, candles, photography, bath products, lotions, soaps, and much more. This store is a great stop to bring something local back. The pricing is on point in regards to supporting an artist. I highly recommend stopping in.

This merger saved 1,700 jobs and a number of stores. This place has a lot to offer for just about any occasion. I do like the gift wrapping station offered in the store. Comes in handy should one be bringing a gift(s) to some in this shopping area...or anywhere else for that matter. The staff members seemed happy without any fake smiles. The ambience felt good as well. Selections for Christmas items this time of year were at an all time high. The prices for all the merchandise were pretty fair too. Check this place out when you get the chance. Oh!!, and there is no surcharge for using your checkcard/credit card here.

I will always stop by here when seeking something to gift "people who have everything" and/or who have selective taste.
