Sometimes I have a problem buying gifts. As in I often follow the one for you, one for me rule. Oh…read morewell, I'm stimulating the economy, right? Raffia seems to be the quintissential gifty place. It's chock full of delightful smells and goodies. Beautiful and funny cards, Catherine Popesco jewelry, local magnets, funny trinkets like travel air freshener ("poo pourri"), locally made tees from Megan Lee designs, scarves, wallets, and even delicious snacks! Prices are a tad high but that seems to be typical for gift type locales. So, if you find yourself traipsing around Park Ridge and you need a gift for someone at some point, do stop in and check out Raffia!

When I said to the older gray hair woman if they had anything for Hanukkah she said there's no…read moreJewish people in Park Ridge and she's never seen one since she lived there! What a stupid statement how would she know that for a fact I'm Jewish I would be remissed if I didn't say everyone was rude the others included the owner was very nice and helpful! I love the unique style of there gifts! I was just very shocked by what the women said it really upset me she should have none better. I don't know what year she's living in but I know several Jewish people living there. She's very uneducated about what's going on in this world and should have a more open mind It was so upsetting to me! I really loved the story unfortunately I will never shop there again it was a antisemitism comment we all need to love each other and think twice what we sty!

Not only do they always have great, unique gifts but they took the time to wrap them up and put them in holiday gift bags even adding bows/ribbons. I cannot say enough about this treasure of a shop in Edison Park! Such great customer service going way above what is expected! Check this place out if you haven't!

It is very strange how a company like Yvonne Estelle can stay in business when they have such…read moreextremely low and rude customer service. I made a purchase online and a few weeks after I had not received any update, I emailed and they responded in the most passive aggressive hostile way without addressing me or even apologizing for the fact that I didn't receive any update on the order. Stay away. Don't give your hard earned money to companies that treat you this way. I am not the type that write reviews more than once every few years but this is repulsive.

When I stopped in with my little one they had a bunch of Halloween-themed items and home decor. There's also some cosmetic/skin care stuff that they carry, though home decor items seemed to be their biggest focus. It doesn't seem like a shop I'd be interested in purchasing from, but they have a good variety of stuff. It's somehow connected to Edie Boutique next door, since it's a shared space and I'm not sure that Marigold has its own entrance.

It's a cute little shop in downtown Park Ridge among a few others. The difference between here and…read morethose is the price & service. Their boutique is highly priced for profit and I totally get it - we all have to make a living. For example, they sell Geometry brand towels for $2 more than I've seen them anywhere else. They also had a 30% off Christmas items sale so I decided to purchase an ornament that said Park Ridge in that Rae Dunn style. It didn't have a price tag but I figured heck, why not support small business! Service was a bit of a miss that day and the lady let me know that because those ornaments are sold all year, they weren't included in the sale. I still bought it hopeful to support local and could not believe my total was $26. Full of regret, I'll hang it every year and share the story with grandkids to come LOL. Also, service was a bit of a miss as mentioned because the other associate looked at me asking if I was ready to purchase, even though she wasn't prepared to ring me up. I've visited twice and service and I've still purchased during both visits. It's not a store that stands out imo and I won't frequent again unless a friend insists. The Edie boutique next door has never greeted me and sells $90 sweaters so I'm pretty sure they're related. But don't let me stop you! Check it out for yourself and decide how much you want to support local.
