Last time I visited Langley, I was intrigued by the skeletons & pretty corset/flowy fairy…read morewings/sparkly things in the window of this new shop and decided to go in. Wow! My 16-year-old Goth Girl rejoiced as I spied intricate leather masquerade masks, decorated hand-carved skulls, "monster" journals, spells, candles, and tons more. Several kids were having a ball trying on things and running around like mad. It's definitely a child's paradise in there - even though most of the items are on the expensive side (and rightfully so - they're more art than costumes or decorations, and most likely take a LONG time to make). Co-owner Sam (she and her husband own the shop) greeted us cheerfully, and really seemed to love what she was doing. "Nymbol" is apparently some kind of dragon puppet, and there was small stage area where he performs in the shop. In addition, they put on themed parties & events for kids AND adults + they offer classes on how to make the leather masks. All in all, I think this is pretty awesome, and I really really hope it makes it!

Love this boutique!! I was on a mission to find a certain Canadian maker and this store was listed…read moreas carrying them. Unfortunately when I got there I learned they don't carry that maker anymore. Fortunately I fell in love with all of the items they did have in here! The owner is really sweet and all about having you try everything on and doing a fashion show with her. She has great accessories and offers great suggestions for how to jazz up any of the pieces she sells. She was so lovely and even showed me her photos with Justin Trudeau - lucky lady!

She listened to the design we wanted and it turned out perfectly. Note: if you dont know what font you want when you visit, you can email her changes.

She can also print out your photo if you want one included in your invitation. Give Alex a month or two in advance, especially if you are requesting during peak season.

Birch Bay Square is an odd little shopping center that appears to be designed to look good from the…read morefreeway, but not from the surrounding roads. The entry and exits to the parking lot are a bit confusing, if not just plain bad. Not really a destination shopping center, although most of the stores haven't looked that interesting to go into. Good grocery shopping at the Markets as part of Birch Bay square, and the Nexus application office is great, woods coffee is always good, but the rest seems a bit run down.

Not a bad shopping center... has a little bit of everything. It's very clean and well maintained…read more However, it's still fairly new and fairly empty... I would suspect that about half of it is unused... hopefully this changes soon. There are some restaurants near by, so thats a plus. There is also a gas station right across the street as well. It's a great location, right near the border and right near the freeway... good for Americans and Canadians alike. Also, we happened to come on a day where they had a art/craft fair in the parking lot... very cool. I hope they have more events like this to get more people out to the shopping center.
