Happened to be in Ferndale, so we popped in to this cool indoor market to shop. There is a nice…read morevariety of vendors from plants to coffee to Detroit merch. We love Bon Bon Bon and they have a small stall here! One of my favorite discoveries though was The Workplace Program - selling cards made by people with disabilities - they were so unique and awesome! I ended up buying one for my brother's birthday and it was the same price you'd see at Hallmark for a nice card. Overall, the space was clean and easy to navigate - only took us about 45 minutes to browse through all the vendors. Definitely check out if you're in the area and want to support local!

Love a lot of the vendors there, but the overall experience was so uncomfortable that I ended up leaving early. Just completely killed the atmosphere for me.

There is a second floor as well. Expensive fur coats for over $2.2k to short mink coats for just under $400. Fun to browse around to see the many offerings.

My boyfriend was obsessed with their candles while I couldn't tear myself away from the jewelry and scarves (and another candle, of course).

A lovely store in downtown RO. Lots of locally made goods, including treats, home decor, gifts,…read moreetc. And it's layout is really great. Not so cluttered that you can't turn around, great lighting and unique ways of displaying items. My lower rating is because of the service to potential vendors. It seems non existent. I'd love to hear from any active vendor there. I dropped off my card (after messaging them via their website, email and Instagram over several months) to inquire about becoming a vendor and never heard back. Maybe they don't have any vendor openings or they don't think my art is a good fit. That's fine. However, I think a courtesy email telling me that should be a normal expectation, though? Maybe Im way off. I still get a ton of advertising whales from their subscription list, so.... ?

This store has nice unique pieces and friendly staff however, the prices are ridiculously high. I…read morewas recently in the store and noticed a Drum Chandelier that caught my eye for $399. I did a little shopping around and was able to purchase the same light at The Home Depot for $179. This is more than 200% markup which is unacceptable. While in the store that day I did purchase a mirror that had to be taken down from the wall and put back in it packaging. That was kind of a turnoff. While this store does have nice pieces, I dont believe I will shop here again due to price gouging. There are plenty of alternatives to living mode.

By this time so many have sat on this couch I've been eying and hubby says it's used at this point. I've made multiple purchases here in the past. Just not the same. I hope they get someone to help them figure it out, it won't be that bratty (old) son. I was so bothered by the way he spoke with his Dad...

My daughter particularly enjoys the stuffed toys and puppets. I enjoy the atmosphere and fun crowd. The music is great and so is the food. They have one of the best funnel cake trucks with amazing fried Oreos, sooo good!!! Treat Dreams has an ice cream truck with their famous flavors. The ice cream cookies are the absolute best!!! They have an eclectic variety of food trucks that look and smell mouthwatering. But they could use more seating, it's very limited compared to the amount of people eating the goodies. I love the adult beverages available to purchase through tickets. They have a ginormous variety of beer and mixed drinks, plus some of the money goes toward different charities and good causes. It's ten tickets for $20, but this year I noticed you may purchase individual tickets. I prefer this option! Tickets are $2 a piece, so most beers cost around $6 or three tickets. I got the Griffinclaw pumpkin beer. It was amazing! Very pumpkin forward with a nice spice aftertaste. Most of the mixed drinks are between three and four tickets, cheaper than most bars. I've even seen some for two tickets. The parking can be challenging. We were able to find a good spot and only paid $3.00. But I wonder if it gets more challenging in the evening hours. I bet this a fun time at night. This is a great event when paired with the Funky Ferndale fair. I look forward to next year.

If you're going to have a store that just sells kitch or art you need to follow a few rules…read more 1) Be nice to your customers. They don't have to buy anything and so you better kiss their behinds. Even if they don't want anything they might feel bad for you because you were so nice. 2) The prices need to be low enough to justify buying something useless. 3) You have to gave good stuff that people want, though they don't need. Also, it helps to have things that one has never seen before and thus must purchase it because they may never see it again. Well, Scout is a nice enough store. The store sells kitch, curios and art. The inside is nice and bright. There are some interesting items, but nothing that I can't live without. Also, I've seen a lot of the same items around the area. The prices were probably comparable but were still pricey. I don't think there was anything for less than $10 or I didn't find it. I give Scout 3 stars because the lady behind the counter was not very friendly or helpful. When I walked into the store she didn't acknowledge me right away or ask if I needed anything. Instead she just talked to a friend for almost the whole 15 minutes we were in there. I was the first to say hello as I entered. Eventually, she engaged us in conversation a little, but it wasn't the friendliest of conversations. Scout had some unique gift ideas and art pieces. Over all the quality stuff was very expensive. The rest could probably be purchased at other stores of a similar nature. I don't really have a reason to go back here.
