My husband and I stopped by here on our way out of Stumpy's (right across the way) as we were…read morelooking for a candle for my father-in-law who is picky about what he likes. He loved a smell from another candle place but refused to return because how strong the smell was. When we walked in we were greeted and asked what we were looking for. The gentleman that assisted us immediately found a couple candles, which would have been enough, but he also brought us to a table in which they had a new scent. The scent was perfect. They had not yet named it so they were nice enough to print us a custom label. There was also a young man there starting his own line of body butters and scrubs, TMOORE CREATIONS. It was not difficult to support this young entrepreneur as there were a few different scents and we ended up getting the cotton candy scrub. We also made sure to scan their QR to keep updated because the entire experience was great. Oh and I even found out they do candle making parties. If you are looking for a way to get people together for a custome event, think of this.

It's the kind of store where you can easily find something for just about anyone and any occasion. They have a great selection of greeting cards and some of the most unique wrapping paper. Also, we've picked up several Jellycats here for our niece. Prices can run a bit high, but that's part of the charm since many of the items feel thoughtfully curated and aren't the kind of things you'll find everywhere else. The staff is consistently friendly and always greets us when we walk in. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind gift, this is the place.

They have so many different things from herbs to candles to books to tarot decks to crystals, etc etc. High quality items that are priced fairly. I was especially impressed with their wide variety of herbs. I especially loved their house made candles. I purchased some herbs and candles. The owner was there and checked us out. And she even offered to cleanse and dress my jar candle for me for free. Which was such a lovely touch. The staff was so warm and welcoming.
