I ended up taking a picture of a couple pairs of earrings to send to my other daughter so I could get her opinion and was so engrossed with what I was doing I hadn't noticed the lady staring at me. The good news for them, I don't steal, however, I was so annoyed I left without purchasing anything. They need to learn what a fine line of watching people is.

Zig Zag Gallery is a great little shop in Centerville at the Cross Pointe Shopping center at the…read morecorner of Far Hills & Alex Bell. I stopped by on Shop Small Saturday this past weekend while I was in town visiting parents for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. What a charming shop with variety of hand-crafted, creative and funky gifts in one spot. Jewelry, pottery, glass, ornaments, and some cool arty, funky clothing - I could have purchased half of the store. I found a few small earrings for my Mom to treat her for the Christmas holiday and they wrapped in a gift box. When you're in the Dayton/Centerville area stop by Zig Zag gallery for a wonderful unique gift, shop small and support local!

I loved this cool shop in Yellow Springs! It's full of local artisans' items like stickers, shirts,…read moredecor, art, and more. I particularly liked the t-shirts (the Yellow Springs one was cool) and the funny items like the plate that read, "live, laugh, leave". I'd describe this shop as quirky, irreverent, and bold. It's a great place to get a gift for yourself or someone else - we bought a cute sticker of an axolotl that is eating snacks and it says "Snacksalotl"! If I lived nearby this would be my first stop for gifts every time.

This is such a great place to find unique items. You can find something for everyone in your life…read more Perfect shop to do gift shopping. I love how you can find and support local artists. Prices are great. Large variety of offered goods. Shirts, art, candles, jewelry and more. The shirts all look super soft.

I got a 1955 (Jetson's era meets 1930s art deco) electric coffee maker in mint condition (with all the parts) for $35!!! Sure it wasn't cheap, but it was totally worth it! $22 seems to be the number of choice for most jewelry and accessories (which I found to be slightly overpriced). Great music played loud but didn't bother me one bit, in fact it added to my overall enjoyment and experience of the shop. Great selection of authentic broaches and jewelry. Limited bake-light and lucite items though the few they DO have are priced fairly. Best part is by far the antique household items. Large selection of records with Lou Reed having his own section! Dressing room is the restroom. Restroom is small, dingy, dirty but again, works with the vibe of the place so it didn't bother me. It felt kinda like a live art museum where you can pick things up in one place and then leave them in another. Everything was scattered around and mixed together so it made you really have to look and interact with the space. I had a fun time. It felt like an artist date!

Great selection of odd-ball dresses and jackets from different decades. Good amount of accessories if you're looking for small pins, rings and other jewelry. They will lower the prices on items if you just ask. Lots of floaters outside and 25-cent peep show-type places.

Clash is a really awesome boutique store and art gallery. I'm glad we stopped in here while we were…read morewalking around the Oregon district. This place has everything from Clothes (Vintage, and New.), Jewelry, Home Goods and Artwork. Mostly everything here is made locally or by smaller homemakers. There was a lot to look at, and there was a lot I wanted to buy. Really unique and awesome jewelry and clothing options. Lots of unique artwork all over the walls. Everything is of great quality. I bought a pair of awesome sunglasses that haven't left my face in 42 hours, regardless of it being cloudy and rainy since. I think that the prices are beyond fair. Not everything is expensive, but not everything is cheap either. Just a great variety. The woman who was working there/running the place was super cool. I loved the sweet dog that was walking around the store. It was overall a great visit here and I'll be coming back soon for sure. If you're walking around the Oregon district I would make this a priority to stop in and shop around.

As someone who is very passionate about vintage fashion and sustainable shopping, this is one of my…read morefavorite Dayton spots of all time. Their selection is incredible, the pieces are in excellent shape, and the prices are relatively reasonable for vintage resale (especially for the quality of items). I am especially blown away by their dress selection. I bought a prom dress from here many years ago and would love to maybe find my wedding dress here someday! While vintage clothing can only be as size inclusive as clothing makers were in the past, Clash has a plus size section and is clearly invested in trying to include people of all sizes as potential customers, which is very refreshing. I took several of my friends with me after brunch, and one of my friends found a plus size dress that she LOVES and I was so happy. Clash does also have beautiful accessories, home items, bags, shoes, etc. and changing rooms so that you can try anything on before buying. If you haven't been to Clash, you have to add it to your list of Dayton spots to check out!

Due to personal circumstances I have been housebound since mid-December. Also bought some jewelry on its 3rd markdown and got the discount! Winning. Thank you Von Maur for being my wingman today.
