Fantastic location, mission and variety! I have been meaning to come here and I'm so glad I did!…read moreThe shop is located near the Hamline Midway area across from Ginkgo Coffee House. I highly recommend making a shopping date with friends and then hitting coffee afterwards. Bonus: Flying Pig is typically open until 6 pm and Ginkgo 8 pm!! Flying Pig Thrift is staffed primarily by volunteers and everyone is beyond kind. Community resources are available onsite via a bulletin board and the shop supports 3 main non-profit groups. Within the dressing area room, there was a flyer supporting mental health resources and I smiled when I saw it. There are a wide variety of items that shift seasonally and frequently. Items are fairly priced and there are often sales, half price item days and even a permanent sale section in the back. I was really excited to score a denim button up with funky colorful bird designs, a cute yellow bee kind sweatshirt along with a black Nike top. In addition to clothes, there are shoes, cards, jewelry, some handcrafted art, home decor, hospital scrubs, board games, records, magazines and more. Thank you Flying Pig Thrift! I appreciate your mission and service towards the Saint Paul area.

When you get so many neat little trinkets and treasures together in one place it's really difficult to keep any sort of organization. This place has figured it out. You could honestly walk in and say something specific of what you are looking for and through what appears to be some chaotic organization, they will find it for you. They have everything! I had so many pinterest crafts come to mind as I walked through the shop. They have two levels FULL of neat stuff ranging from furniture, to maps, to assorted board game pieces. It's so neat! I will definitely be back... Oh! And I forgot to mention, when I walked in the door I was greeted with donut holes and coffee... ummmm name another store like this.. yeah, I couldn't think of one either!

Omforme has been my go-to for years when I want to add a unique piece of furniture or accessory to…read moremy home, or purchase a special one-of-a-kind gift. My first purchase was a coffee table Carter made with hexagonal mirrored tiles. From then I was hooked. My next purchase was a gorgeous mid-century liquor cabinet. I've purchased elegant fun gifts for friends at Omforme -- tell Carter about the recipient and he has always had a number of great suggestions. But my favorite part of Omforme is Carter's personal restyling of furniture. He carefully restores the original to beautiful condition, and then adds a bit of flavor to update it. I have also brought him some garage sale finds or family heirlooms, and each time he has transformed it from a boring old piece of furniture with "good bones" to something I love to see and use in my home. I consider Carter my personal furniture artist and home style consultant. He has helped me change my home from "comfortable" to "warm, welcoming, and uniquely beautiful".

Don't go there cuz you might buy something I want…read more I bought two Eames vintage chairs, a vintage stainless steel rolling cart so we can put stuff on it (coffee, liquor, food) and roll it around the house. I also bought two vintages designer lights and a couple pieces of glass labware to put cocktails in and put on the rolling cart to roll around the house (see above). I also bought a very cool looking gumball machine where you push down a little lever and a gumball comes out.** **I have put real gumballs and M&M peanuts in this thing and it has yet to spit out a gumball. It's pretty cool, though. OK, these guys have vintage cocktail glasses and shakers (do you see a problem here?) and more labware that I might buy. And a couple great vintage stands from a chemistry lab that has lots of clamps for test tubes. I'm trying to justify this one. My god!! They have two gigantic overhead light fixtures on rolling frames. If you live in one of those hoity-toity warehouses there is no excuse not to buy these. O, VINYL RECORDS YOU PEOPLE. SOUNDTRACK ALERT!! Endless Boogie was playing on their sound system. New favorite band. Ba-bump ba-bump ba-bump (Jaws) they are only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday from about noon on.

It reminded me of David's Apothecary in Schitt's Creek. I especially liked the wall of irreverent greeting cards; many of my favorites can't be quoted here, LOL.

First lets talk about location...its pretty great, not too far off Hwy 100 and Excelsior…read more There are plenty of other stores in the area, but they have their own parking lot so you don't have to try to scavenge for street parking. I came in specifically to look at Joybird sofas as they are an authorized retailer and have sofas on the sales floor. Its scary to make an online purchase (and such a large, custom purchase) without touching and feeling an item, so I was thrilled to learn this store was so close to home and had what I was looking to purchase. I had a great time working with Kristin. After countless emails and a couple visits to the store I ordered my sofa, and also ended up with a chair and lamp. Kristin was great to offer her designer opinion while listening to mine and helping me make the big decision based on my existing home design. They offer financing (OAC) and 'white glove' delivery (they take all the packaging stuff with them when they leave, set the item in the room of your choosing) just like Joybird, but they will for other items you purchase there, too. The kicker is the 2 week in home trial period. Keep it for two weeks and if you decide you hate it they will take it back to the store and offer you store credit to replace the item. This really eased my worry about spending 2K on a sofa I may not like as much in person. I can't wait until it arrives! They also have home decor items here, like pillows and lamps. Its a super fun place to just look around and get inspiration, or fall in love with a custom fox lamp which would totally look amazing on your nightstand. Or maybe that fun mounted anatomical model of a heart on your desk. Or maybe that chair with acrylic arms. You get the idea... Inventory is changing constantly, so visit often. See you there!

I walked in my with my kelly green coat and my hot pink pants and immediately saw some bright…read moreorange chairs and a sales person that had purple hair. I immediately knew I was going to be at home in this store. There was furniture and accessories, for you neutral people there was plenty of that. For those of us who like color, plenty of that too. My designer Billie was super sweet and let me browse but also let me know that anything can be custom ordered and that this is just a small sampling of what they can get for me. I wasn't sure if I could afford it so I had her price out a chair for me it was $1100 but they had a 20% off sale so it would be $880. I'm new to furniture shopshopping so I went to another store later (La-Z-Boy) and it was comparable to that. I walked in at 20 minutes to closing on a Sunday night, but Billie didn't seem rushed at all. I was the one saying "let's just wrap this up. Can you give me something to look at online?" And she gave me two websites she thought I would like based on our conversations and looking at what they have to offer. I will see where our furniture shopping journey takes me but I plan to be back!

(I love supporting small business owners/artists, as I am one myself.) The shop itself is not very large, but there's a decent selection of cute stuff that, for the most part, is thematically congruent with the Minnesota/Minneapolis experience. I couldn't resist a glittery ornament depicting the spoon and cherry statue (if you know, you know!). You'll find things like t-shirts, kitchen towels, wooden spoons/spatulas, chocolate, soaps, wooden art blocks, coasters, puzzles, jewelry, baby clothes, coasters, keychains, postcards, stickers, etc. I am uncertain how much or how often stock changes. Prices were pretty reasonable, considering-- obviously more than cheap junk from China would cost, but also more unique and special!

My family and I visit here frequently and it has become a time to bond together as we check out the ever changing space (this time the check out table moved to a completely different location and there was a bigger gardening section added). Each aisle of the store offers its own flair so you can be here for a good hour just to ensure you don't miss anything. Stop back when you can because seasonally, items change. I would say this store is a mix between Patina, Home Goods and a thrift shop. While a majority of the items are brand new, there is a very small section with gently used items such as rustic hand tools, records, teacups, and home decor. Enjoy! This place is a gem!
