I actually bought a Magic Tree House book because it was bilingual and they had Traditional Chinese characters with bopomofo (alphabet) alongside the characters. I have never seen a bilingual book like this before! They have some cute stickers and cards here too. I also saw a small selection of snacks and condiments like chili crisp. The cashier (who was probably the owner) was very nice! She spoke English and Mandarin.

The staff were beyond friendly, able to tell me about the new products I was interested in, and discuss the tea knowledgeably. The boutique was so cute we took our time checking every corner of the shop, and walked away with some lovely new pens for journaling. I'll be sure to come back any time I'm near here! And the surrounding complex had a surprising array of food, a lovely indoor/outdoor eating area, and stores full of international goods of many kinds. Maybe next time calls for a visit to Dim Sum next door followed by some tea from their shop!

The store was neat and organized, and everything was bright and interesting. The candles smelled so good. It is on the pricier side though. I bought one pen and one candle and it came out to $56-$58. I can't wait to go back and look around some more.

The prices were a little…read morehigher than you'll see in your local department store but they had things that I have been unable to find anywhere in Atlanta: A fountain pen. Specifically a Pilot Kaweco sport, one of the best pens for people interested in learning to use fountain pens. The person working there was very helpful and friendly. She also had knowledge of how ordering of products was done. They also had top quality paper products imported from Germany and Japan... and in unique editions. I was thrilled to find the store. It is located in Ponce City Market

Then I moved onto the back where the books and figurines are. There is a huge selection and would take a long time to browse through it all. With just a limited amount of time, I moved onto the stationery section. They have a lot of different types of paper and notebooks, pen and pencils, and a display case with a small variety of fountain pens. There is a few of the fountain pens that you can try to see how they write. The sticker and washi tape section was kind of disappointing though. Not a big selection of it and a lot of empty spaces in the washi tape section. I will definitely have to go back and browse when I do have more time.

I wonder if I have enough money to get this too." So it is safe to say that this is a very cool shop. Well-stocked with graphic novels, posters and books, not to mention stationery, collectible Items and tchotchkes, there's something for everyone. Just be careful of the price points.

It's also one of those stores where you can walk in without looking for anything specific and still end up leaving with something. I especially like it for gifts. Whether you need a book, something cute for a child, a small birthday gift, or just a unique little item for someone, there's usually something interesting to choose from. The store has a playful, welcoming feel and fits perfectly inside Ponce City Market. Great service and pricing is decent. Definitely 5 stars. Great for kids, great for gifts, and always worth popping into when I'm at Ponce.

Loved the atmosphere and all the fun things they had in the store, ended up getting a car air freshener, some pigeon chip clips, and an Atlanta sticker I thought was fun. Felt value was good but I wanted these things so didn't really matter. The service was really good too, everyone that worked here was so friendly. I asked a question about the jellycats and they answered. I then checked out after doing another lap and the cashier was so nice. I will for sure come back again next time we are in area.

This is an artist dream. They have probably whatever you need for whichever medium your craft is. My gentleman friend took me on Valentine's Day and I found a fluorescent pink 7mm mechanical pencil. I never knew I needed a pencil so badly. They carry the Ferris Wheel Press inks and a few others but I can't remember the name. Most of the inks cost the same as they would online but you don't have to pay shipping and you can view the swatches to get a good idea of the color you're buying. So happy businesses like this still thrive in Atlanta

I've already been here quite a few times, and I look forward to more visits, as I always leave here feeling inspired.

We have been told many times over by friends that they are keeping the invitation because it was the prettiest they had ever seen! Tyja also helped us with the day-of stationery, and we could not have been more delighted with how each piece turned out. The quality is exceptional. I highly recommend Paper Daisies!

The prices were ridiculous. I don't mind paying for quality but there was nothing unique here. Very generic. Nothing you couldn't just order off the internet for much cheaper. A small candle that would probably cost $10-$15 in any other boutique store was $50 here. I mean, there was nothing inspiring in this store whatsoever. Just lazy merchandising and boring, overpriced products you could buy anywhere else. That's my honest review before what happened next. The owner called the police because she claimed another customer caught my wife shoplifting. We were detained in a humiliating fashion by several police officers in the front of her store for 45 minutes while they watched security footage over and over trying to find damning evidence of something that didn't happen. When nothing was found, the spineless owner had us criminally trespassed instead of apologizing. I noticed in another review that a minority received terrible service here as well. Not surprised at all to see that the trash who owns this store is racist, too. If you order cookies from Crumbl, make sure to order well enough in advance that you won't be tempted to visit this little piece of retail hell. Boring, generic, rude, overpriced. Completely garbage ownership.

The Merchant is a home goods gift store carrying a number of thoughtfully curated specialty…read moreproducts. Located at the Krog Street Market, the interior aesthetic reads industrial storehouse meets white-washed farm living room. Exposed high ceilings painted black with spotlights, hanging 60s style vintage lamps, a lacquered wooden canoe suspended mid-air and a large lightbulb arrow sign add a quirky vibe. Products include kitchen gadgets and serving ware (hand towels, plates, bowls, measuring cups, cocktail accessories, glasses, handsoap), books (travel, art, history, food/recipe, coffee table), Georgia-related souvenirs and packaged food gifts (candies and chocolate, cookies, puzzles, etc), gifting paper (like cards, gift wrap, gift bags), candles and home decor items (wall art, prints, bookends), and some seasonal holiday items that fall into above categories. They carry Lucia candles which are one of my favorite candle makers in terms of elegant home fragrances, though I only saw their seasonal fir/evergreen scent which unfortunately wasn't a love. Price range falls into the higher end so not an everyday shopping kinda place, though I'd recommend for an occasional treat or place to buy a nice souvenir. Staff seemed helpful and able to provide recommendations. Parking is available street side in the neighborhood.

Was with two friends looking for a birthday gift for a former boss of ours. Lots of color from all the merchandise popped out as soon as we walked into the store. Swoozie's was very inviting, as were the employees who greeted me and asked if I needed help looking for anything. The store was neat, clean and well organized. This store stocks lots of items that will help you celebrate special occasions. Gifts, cards, stationery, invitations, and decorations are among so many different quality items that they sell. Most of these items are organized into specific sections of the store. For example, just about all of the cards are in the card section, and the invitations are in the invitation section. However, gifts are spread throughout the store, so customers have to walk through the entire store to get a good idea of what they stock. The three of us looked through the whole store for a birthday gift for our ex-manager, but nothing jumped out at us. While we all agreed that they have high quality merchandise in Swoozie's, we all thought that the prices were generally expensive - more expensive than what we want to pay, unless they were on clearance.
