This store is my crack. No, seriously. I'm bummed that it's in Oak Brook, but at the same time…read moreglad it's in Oak Brook. Because if it were in the city, I'd be broke. I LOVE sassy, sarcastic cards and this place is loaded with some of the best I've ever seen. I especially love the style of cards with an vintage picture and a smartass saying, and they've got tons. Anne Taintor, Curly Girl, and more. I loaded up on cards, magnets, etc. I mean, who doesn't want a card that says, "What's wrong with my attitude, it matches my outfit?" Love. It. It was so hard to stop. Awesome cards + great and quirky gifts = my heaven. I can't wait to return!!

I usually come from Chicago to the burbs to knockout shopping in one area. This strip mall that…read moreUncharted is located in meets this need. I happily stumbled upon Uncharted as I ventured the strip. At first I was rather overwhelmed and had sensory overload from al the cuteness, but quickly became familiar with the store after doing an initial walk thru. They have a nice selection of clothes and carefully curated items. I appreciate the variety and can see my wallet hurting if I brought my teen and tweenage girls. Last but not least, they had the Swedish gummy pop up selling at a great price. You bet I took advantage of that! I will definitely come back with my girls and maybe a mom's only shopping trip.

It's always a promising sign when customers are waiting outside the door for the store to open…read more Unless they have pitchforks and torches of course. No, it was a couple of moms and their tweenish daughters, and for a moment I thought, this store isn't for me. They pulled on the locked door a few times, and when it finally opened, I made my way into the store, along with a few other people. It was a store for me, and them, and you and your friends. Uncharted is a very nice gift store, and larger inside than you expect. There were candles, housewares, cards, clothes, toys, jewelry, candy, men's gifts, and more. It's an updated and more trendy Hallmark store. The staff were very nice, and asked me to join their rewards club. I declined, as this location is a little far for me. I did purchase a cute scratch-off artpad for a gift and some pretty notecards.

What an interesting shop! It is filled with unique artisan items and/or antiques. Major Americana!…read moreLots of varying types of home decor with a wide range of pricing. Most of the items I looked at and checked pricing on were way out of my budget, but some were more affordable. When I'm looking seriously at finishing touches for some of the rooms in my house, I wouldn't mind returning. I'm not personally into Americana, but there were other little hidden gems that definitely piqued my interests. You could seriously look around for a loooong time with the number of items in this shop. Despite the quantity, it didn't feel cluttered or dusty, so it is well kept up and has a nice layout. They are in the process of moving to another location still in Hinsdale, so heads up for that.

The first table that got my attention was the Father's Day gift. So many items that one could grab for their favorite dad. Whether lighters, mugs, Cubs books or candles so many items. They even had fancy bbq sauce combo kits. This store offers custom pillows to commemorate weddings, births, etc... The price seemed really reasonable. So many different items available for purchase such as gifts, home decorations, candles, party planning, jewelry, clothing and sunglasses. I purchased a pair of sunglasses and earrings. I also had my eye on this umbre hot pink scarf. Store rep was friendly, advised of new customer 10% coupon on highest priced item. She also recommend dining in the nearby neighborhood. Thanks for the MAKs suggestion.

First and foremost, Mary Kay (MK) is the absolute best!…read more If Yelp would allow me give her 100 stars, I absolutely would! My sister and I walked into 221 Creations on Monday, August 6, 2018 with worry in our eyes. My wedding is Saturday, October 6, 2018 and we knew we had to get these invitations out as quickly as possible. Mary Kay sat and gave us all the time we needed. My sister and I looked in the invitation book and we figured we'd have to pass on my favorite option because the paper only came in ecru. MK called the printer to get the invitation paper in white. She made it happen! We ordered the addresses to be printed on the invitation envelopes and she was an immense help with the invitation wording etiquette. The invitation company suggested four glue dots to paste the invitation on the backing but Mary Kay suggested that a different form of tape would be easier to apply and it would be more durable. She could have easily ordered those dots but she knew it would be a pain to do which we really appreciated when it came to assembling the invitations. Once we had decided on the invitations and text, she submitted the order to the printer and told us she would follow up with a proof via email the next day. As promised, we received the proof email and once we responded with our approval, she instantly submitted the order to print. We had the invitations in hand yesterday, Thursday, August 16 at 1:30pm. She communicated with us from the moment we walked into the shop until we had the invitations in hand. I can't stress how pleasant MK made the invitations process for us! Mary Kay went above and beyond to make sure that my sister and I were beyond happy with every detail. Mary Kay is patient, kind, funny, courteous and understanding. She did not try to up sell us or con us into buying anything we did not need. It is evident that Mary Kay has her customer's best interests in mind. Planning a wedding is stressful, but I know that anything I ask of MK will be done correctly and efficiently! It is a joy to work with her! Go and see her for everything wedding and beyond. I'm not going to stop here, we plan to order our wedding ceremony programs, wedding menu cards, place cards, bridesmaid's & groomsmen's gifts etc. from MK. Mary Kay, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

First time here! Such a well organized, visually appealing store!…read more It's October currently and this store was very fall! Everything was super on trend. They have tons of teenage and women's clothing options, home goods, and Knick knacks. There is tons to look at and it is so beautifully organized and well placed. Pricing is on the higher side but for how well everything was displayed, organized, the quality of items, selection, and the area we are in, it seems about right.

Apparently I showed up on day 8 and had to accept a crappy paper receipt as a store credit instead of a money back refund. I honestly don't know if I'll even use the credit knowing how shitty the return policy is . I'll be reluctant to shop here again out of principle . The sweeter I returned was so cheap and shapeless. Even though it's more expensive, the quality of the clothing and the much friendlier policies make Evereve the better option all day long .
