It is next door to the shopping plaza with the Publix in it and while a bit older, it is still a good place to head towards if you are visiting one of the businesses here. It has an Interstate blend of stores including an antique store, a Sherwin Williams paint store and a dry cleaners. If you are coming to one of the stores here, it is a good location.

The Art House is located in Lake Concord Park where you can also experience for free, the Sculpture Walk, Sculpture House, and Arts Center. The 2.500 square foot Art House is part of Casselberry's plan to create a hub of cultural enrichment in Lake Concord Park. The Art House provides space for art classes, art exhibitions, educational programs, workshops, artist lectures, and musical performances. I was lucky enough to catch the Art House open during the 2nd Friday Food Truck event. They were having an exhibit of paper art by the Art House All Stars. It was a delight to visit this art exhibit and Casselberry which is a community that values and supports the arts.

The exhibit is divided into two "houses". A house remodeled into an art exhibit, and the modern house in the back for other art pieces. The first house has paintings and items on consignment. Art lines the walls, and you can take it home...for a price. The more modern house was more interesting in my opinion. It had sculptures that told a story. It was nice to walk around before the Jazz Festival this evening and take in the art! Service: Art exhibits Selection: beautiful and interesting art

Janet's Dry Humor is Orlando's FIRST dried floral shop! The store is located on the second floor of…read moreEast End Market and belongs to Porch Therapy who has a shop on the first floor. Since you're probably wondering why it's called "Janet's Dry Humor" it's named after the owner's mother Janet :) Their selection of dried floral options are diverse and they also carry small home decor items from Porch Therapy. You can purchase flowers by the stem, in bunches, in bouquets or in custom arrangements by the store's very talented floral designer Anna. Fresh flowers are cool and all, but dried floral arrangements last forever! They're perfect for those with a black thumb because they don't require any maintenance and basically have a permanent shelf life if stored indoors. This will be your go-to spot for flowers. The shop is small but has a bunch of things to shop through. If it's anything like Porch Therapy or The Heavy, I'm sure the selection will change often so it'll give you plenty of reasons to return.

This is one of the most unique and interesting shops in East End Market (and that's saying…read moresomething- there are a LOT of great places!). You walk in and are taken on a good-smelling adventure. Initially, you're greeted by the aroma of wicker baskets and herbs, but as you lean into each arrangement, you breathe in lovely floral notes of flowers and herbs that are guaranteed to make you smile. :) The shop is small and quaint. Treat yourself to a dried bouquet in your living room, or hang dried herbs upside down in your kitchen for an earthy effect. Lovely!

I like this store not only because it's themed around all the magical whacky animals of the HP world, but it also has a lot of unique merchandise that you don't see at the other stores or the bigger overarching Universal stores. If you love pygmy puffs, they have all the cutesy items you could want. There are tons of snowy owl (rip Hedwig) things, along with stuffed animals of most of the Fantastic Beasts you can read about and see in the movies. When in this store, take a second to just stop and look all around- even up to the ceiling. There are so many subtle interactive details here that make the experience so much more than just some fantastical shopping.

If you're outside the store, you can try speaking Parseltongue to the snake! If you're visiting Daigon Alley, you should go inside the Magical Menagerie! This was one of the few stores inside Daigon Alley that had a lot of the magical creatures from the Fantastic Beasts series!
