The behavior was unwelcoming and discourteous. So, we left without buying anything. Basic psychology. This shop does, however, sell some adorable llama earrings that will be very popular upon their anticipated relocation to Peru!

Customer service MATTERS! I love Hallmark, however I will never visit this location again! I was…read morepleasantly greeted by a young lady at the Pandora section as I entered the store, and she answered a question that I had with promptness and a smile. My visit went down hill from there. I entered the store with a goal of finding an ornament that I have been looking for since the beginning of December. I was searching the discounted ornament section and a customer service rep was standing right near me. Not once did she acknowledge my presence. However, a older gentleman approached the area and she happily greeted him. Same experience upon exiting the store. Another customer service worker spoke to my friend and said no words to me. I have many questions about my interactions today at this location. My overall takeaway is that this location does not display equitable customer service to ALL of their customers. This is not what Hallmark encompasses at other locations. Do BETTER!

She literally was standing in a section clearly looking for a specific item and one of the many staff members didn't offer to help. She was there for a good bit. Sadly, another man came to the same area and someone immediately asked him if he needed help. I witnessed this from another area and this was not cool. The staff needs to be aware of this and notice ALL customers at all times in my opinion.

If you are in need of a gift for yourself or others this is the place to go. Since it was a house previously, the Studio has a special comforting atmosphere. Although numerous items line the shelves, it doesn't seem overwhelming. The items are organized well and it's easy to navigate the area. The only difficult part was trying to narrow down what to purchase. The items are well made and the scattered amigurumi are incredibly adorable. I didn't even realize I wanted a crochet pop tart until now. I ended up purchasing several items as gifts. If you are unsure where to start, the co-owners are helpful and welcoming. We met the lady who makes the soaps and the soap is incredible. Overall, excellent place for local gifts and flowers! Free parking is available along Chatham street and in nearby lots.
