This shop is a bit of a treasure hunt, AND it contains lots of great work (woodwork, leatherwork, ceramics, hand knits +++) by local makers. It's a great stop when tooling around the area in Bow/Edison. Lots of great finds here at good prices! read more

A gem hidden in a small town! This store is curated so nicely and the customer service is outstanding! There's such a great mix of items. This is the perfect place to buy a gift! Or to buy yourself a gift! read more

Stopped in Edison for breakfast, enjoyed browsing the store. Definitely worth a visit

This store is a wonderful collection of artisan items. I never leave empty handed and am always inspired by the variety of goods. The fellow who runs the shop is pleasant and funny. I would say this is a must stop if you're in the area. Stop at the ATM before you go (or, luckily, there is one in town). They only do cash/check. read more

The owner is friendly & has an array of local artists works. Quality gifts-unique pottery & wares you won't find anywhere else. Cool vintage repurposed clothes too! read more

A very eclectic little store with lots of gift ideas and a very friendly staff. They only take cash or check but we were in last Sunday and when my son found a gift that we did not quite have enough cash to cover the item, the clerk let us take the item home and mail in a check for the item! read more

If you love unique art and supporting local artists, this is the place for you! Came from Florida on vacation at Whidbey Island and drove over to Bread Farm (another place I totally recommend if you enjoy pastries), and I found so many beautiful treasures. Bring cash because they only accept cash or personal checks. You won't be disappointed! read more

i love this shop for so many reasons and it's crazy that i've never written a review but that's going to change right now because i just stopped in and the owner sealed the deal on my relatively small purchase with an extra map bag. map bag? let me back up, so you understand what i'm talking about and just how cool they are! when you make a purchase here, and you will because there's just too much cool, unique stuff to not, you'll most likely get treated to a handmade bag to carry your goodies away in, made out of a recycled map! sometimes they're aviation maps, sometimes geographical maps but every time i've bought something i covet the handmade bag almost more than whatever i've purchased and i'll just say that this is the best place to find gifts for people on your gift list! there's pottery and handmade cards and clothes plus other really cool handmade things. today i almost bought $4 record coasters with the names of the tunes and the record label. there were also amazingly adorable hand sewn leather ornaments or window decor in the options of killer whales, otters, egrets, polar bears, etc. when i walked in i told the owner about my obsession with the map bags and how i've basically asked everyone i've given a gift to from the lucky dumpster to return the bag in which the item was gifted because i'm happy to part with the gift since i bought it with the intention of making someone's day but those map bags, they're so cool----i want them! when i'd chosen my greeting cards and a magnet the owner was just as excited as if i'd bought a big ticket item and knowing how much i love the map bags, he put my purchases in one and gave me an extra one folded up inside just because!!! that's what i'm talking about when it comes to making your customers happy! i'm always happy when i'm in the lucky dumpster but this was just icing on the cake, if you will! now i can send the cards and give the magnet i bought but i get the truly cherished items to keep: the map bags! maybe you're not as much as a geography geek as i am, but anyone you buy a gift for from the lucky dumpster will probably also get to see this recycled craftsmanship and maybe we can start a "map bag fanatic" fan club? check this place out while you're in edison. it has to be a fri-sat-sun because that's when the town is truly open but along with the other places in strolling distance, i'd bet you will find something in here you or a friend just has to have! and if you do purchase something, here's hoping you appreciate the map bag you walk out with as much as i do! read more

James has made an inclusive creative local community focus art outlet. it's a great place to find unique ceramics and other hand made items. in a world of imported plastic this place is so special and worth supporting! buy local art! read more

Great store for unexpected curated curios! Cash only btw The Owner is duper nice fellow as well

The Lucky Dumpster is a wonderful and wacky store full of original and repurposed quirky artwork and housewares. There is a particular emphasis on original pottery--mugs, cups, sculptures, etc.--generally featuring farm or zoo animals doing zany things. The quality of these seems to span from "very high" to "preschool," but the charm factor is off the charts for all of it. The fellow behind the counter, who I assume is the owner, is a total character who seems completely committed to and immersed in the store, and in the broader concept of repurposing stuff rather than landfilling it. He will make a custom button for you on the spot. (Speaking of buttons...they have buttons there made of avocado pits, which you can then sew onto your favorite garment that is lacking for buttons. Yes, they take repurposing seriously!) Cash or check only...I'm not entirely sure where the nearest ATM is but come prepared. And basically everything in town is within walking distance, so make the whole Bow-Edison a destination for a good day trip and check out this place along with its neighboring businesses. read more

I absolutely love this shop!! My husband and I move to the Skagit area a few years ago and make the trek to Edison a couple of times a month and when we're there, we always try to stop by the Lucky Dumpster!! I always find something fun & unique for gifts. And, even though we visit frequently, there's typically new inventory featuring new artists' pieces. I echo the same sentiment as another reviewer; I get a little giddy when I get my hand made map bag! Love those bags!! Great welcoming vibe too. read more

The best kept secret in the state. So consider this a whisper. James and his partner are the kindest and have an eye for rad little goods. Such great WA artist pottery, housewares, and little works of art. It's so specially curated. And the cat has a basket of toys he dragged in through the years (that's just part of its charm). read more

Love it! It's not a Thrift store. It's more like an art co-op. Filled with fun and cool things. Plus, this little town of Edison is so cute and worth a stop. Be sure to go to the Breadfarm across the street! You're welcome :-) read more

Great small store with treasures you won't find anywhere. Focus on pottery, home items, jewelry. Nicely curated. Local artists are featured here which makes it special and meaningful. The owner makes his own bags by sewing old maps together. Nice touch. Awesome small town feel where trust (he had left the store open while zipping out to grab a coffee) and connection are made. Loved it. CASH only read more

Great local artist's collective. Thanks for the lovely mug & tea-towel. Now I'm back in San Francisco wishing I'd spent more time looking at the super unique items. 170 artists know what they are doing. Super cool sales-dude & such fun topo-map gift bag. Having a cup of tea in my bird mug this morning. Cheers! read more

What an awesome little surprise in Edison, WA. This store carries hand-made accessories constructed from (mostly) re-purposed materials. I bought a great little leather cuff with contrast stitching made from an old belt. They also have a ton of great paper crafts, water colors, and alternative cross-stitching. If you find yourself in Edison, definitely check this store out! read more

This is THE place for original and moderately priced artwork with originality and often restore quality. Great couple own the shop and know all the items in there, so chat them up and enjoy. I bought a ceramic hippo, in blue, and loved its whimsy along with other finds. Don't miss eating at Tweets Cafe too! Edison is a find, so support these folks and this lovely town. read more

Curiosity shop. More flair than quality. Not worth a special trip but drop by if in the area. Something might strike your fancy. Or you could leave after three minutes like we did. read more

Very cool shop. Loads of locally made jewelry, art, cards, nicknacks, reasonably priced. Great space. Guy that runs it is super friendly & up for a conversation. I left with a quirky new hair band. read more
