My daughter had ideas for how she wanted her wedding invitations to look, and they took those ideas , expanded on them, and created a beautiful and unique design that was everything and more than we envisioned. The process, pricing, and timeline were clearly explained to us and delivered just exactly as outlined. This little store is a gem! We are looking forward to having them handle the day-of coordination for the wedding.

It's small, but had nice stationary stuff and some random baby items and brands that you may not find elsewhere in town.

There are loose crystals, a wall of crystal bracelets, there are larger pieces of crystals, jewelry, clothing, makeup, Burt's bees, they did have tarot and Oracle decks, or bags for them as well which is what I bought. There's another floor with all of the clothing, candles, spell ingredients, sage, and cute black iron cauldrons. I think the only thing I would change is I'm sure they have a lot of shoplifting, but there were notes everywhere about stealing, which doesn't make you feel very welcome. The last place you want to steal from is a crystal shop so yeah I got the point. The girl who checked me out was very nice. It's the first time I've seen makeup geared toward a witchy community, so I thought that was fun not that I need more eyeshadow. They might need to update their hours on Google.

I also love the selection of scarves-- winter and fashion that are very reasonably priced. The staff is friendly and helpful. I had a wonderful shopping experience and will visit again soon!

I purchased the vegan white chocolate raspberry cookie at the pop up location at the downtown…read moreBloomington farmer's market. "Vegan" was clearly written on the blackboard outside the door, on the basket holding the cookies, and on the packaging of each individual cookie. On the ingredients list on the individually wrapped cookies, it states "egg" as one of the primary ingredients. Eggs are not vegan. This could cause stomach upset or an allergic reaction to someone expecting the "vegan" cookie to actually be vegan. I had to throw out the cookie I bought as I could not eat it. I would suggest removing the vegan label associated with this recipe.

We happened to visit on a Saturday during the farmers market, a time during which the full museum (essentially the whole building) is free as well! (Otherwise adults are $5 and seniors over 65 are $4). We were very impressed by this local museum and would compare it to the museum at the St. Louis Arch. Educational with lots of artifacts and some interactive portions - great for history buffs and families! The building itself is also beautiful architecturally inside and out which we enjoyed. Lots of cool things in the gift shop, including the bean pots that Steak n Shake used to sell baked beans in prior to removing them from their menus during the pandemic (RIP to my favorite fast food restaurant side). They also sell and stamp the Route 66 and National Park passports here. Definitely worth a stop!

What was delivered was completely different and charged at the very top of my budget, not what had been presented. After multiple calls trying to resolve it and a specific request to leave the recipient out of the situation, they made the astonishing decision to return to the recipient's home, remove the arrangement, and issue a full refund. I can accept a disappointing arrangement. I cannot accept poor communication, unprofessional behavior, and repeated bad judgment. One of the strangest customer experiences I've had. I won't be back.
