Handmade crafts, restored furniture and the like, vintage items, all kinds of good stuff and the prices are very reasonable! The employees were very nice and made me feel welcome despite my looking like I rolled out of a barrel (I had been camping for three days!) I have already talked a friend into coming back to visit in a few weeks. We'll get lunch, spend hours in here, and maybe get dinner afterward haaa!

The items were well merchandised, so you could actually shop and see everything. So many places just dump as much as possible into a space and it becomes overwhelming. You don't appreciate the specialness of any of the items when they are piled on top of one another. The owners were great, present and helpful, but let you shop and look around without hovering. They've curated a really nice space and we look forward to coming back. (Also, the prices were very reasonable considering the quality!)

We have bought multiple large items and go to their store first when looking for things, even small gifts.

We recommend them to everyone we know and have even introduce friends and families who are shopping for unique pieces of furniture or items to their store. Even if you aren't really shopping but want a cool experience with antique or Upcycle items I recommend checking them out!

For a consignment shop, this place is beautifully designed. It's sleek and chic and meticulously…read moreorganized. The clothes here are in great shape, as are the shoes, purses and jewelry. Some things are brand new with tags, but you can tell they scrutinize their items before taking them. The back dressing area is gorgeous! It looks like a bridal fitting dressing room! There are some chairs to chill in while your peeps are trying on clothes! There's also a small men's department which is a plus! Speaking of plus... there's a plus size section, a petite section and a sale section. You'll find many name brand items in this upscale boutique, Gucci, Michael Kors, Coach, Brighton, Chico's to name a few. Some of the prices are decent if you wait for the price to go down by date, but most of the merchandise here is pricey. I saw many prices that were well above outlet prices, and they were pre-owned. So... beware of sticker shock. If you shop here are are comfortable with the prices, here's to you! For others, like me, I prefer a real bargain but if you hunt, you may find one! I was surprised at the high priced jewelry, $75 for a tarnished silver rose necklace with a ribbon cord. I recently learned from the owner that some of the jewelry, like the piece aforementioned, is made by local jewelry designers and the designers set their own prices. They also have sales on jewelry so you can also get discounts that way! I was also informed that a savvy shopper can find some great deals on they sale rack and put together a whole outfit for 10$! Way to go! However, even though this place wasn't my taste, it's great for the consignors, who I assume get a great split for their gently used pieces. Despite the prices, this place gets high marks for its presentation. They also deserve applause for the polite, respectful and professional way the owner responds to reviews! Well done!
