This is a Fair Trade shop,…read morewhich means they buy from low-income countries to support their economy and resell the products. There is a huge sale going on because they will, unfortunately, be closing at the end of June. The volunteer greeted me, introduced me to their selections, and was very friendly when I took a long time to browse every knick-knack. They have cards, kitchen items, holiday items, instruments, bags, clothes, jewelry, books, magnets, bumper car sticks, stickers, wind chimes, finger puppets, coffees, teas, chocolates and more. Great place to buy unique gifts. It's like traveling the world without having to buy a plane ticket.

Having a career in the field of guest service really shows me how bad businesses are failing at the…read moremost basic of things. One of the most basic things is guest service - the beginning interaction, the overall continued guest service while they're in your shop and the lasting impression that will be the deciding factor if someone will come back or not. I brought my family in and on a slower evening, mind you there were only (2) tables with (2) ppl at each table already painting their pottery. We walk in and the two girls at the register didn't bother to make eye contact, greet us, get up off their bums and ask us how our evening was... let alone helping us get started. They were more concerned about their personal conversation than working for the money the owners are paying them. Then basically they had to pry themselves out of their seats to get us paint... still no smiles, advice or anything. While we were painting they stopped at NO tables to ask if We needed anything or had questions. They just continued their personal conversations. Correct me if I'm wrong but they're there for the guests, not themselves. I can only hope they're better than that otherwise ownership really needs to take a closer look at who they let run their business. This is the first time and last time we will come back after spending almost $200 that night. It has a lot of potential to be a fun place to come and hangout but with employees like that, it was a turnoff immediately. I would've immediately turned around and walked out if it wasn't for me coming into town for a week to specifically spend time with my family while I was in town for a short time. But I was embarrassed I brought them there and we were treated or should I say ignored almost the entire Time we were there. When they wrapped up our session, again there was no smiling, zero personality and no cause to want to come back and spend more money. Debating if 2 stars is too much. Disappointing...

We came in October and there were so many wonderful holiday items, including these pumpkin pillows the owner made herself. We chatted with the owner for a bit and she's even getting classes started for newbies, like me, to get the hang of this craft thing. I'm pretty sure she will make any specific item you are thinking about, as well. This shop is definitely worth the visit if you like vintage items!
