They have home decor, perfume, baby gifts, jewelry, furniture and they also have a space in their shop for afternoon tea (reservations required). Just a really lovely shop.

Just the name gives off meaning that we are entering into someone's heart and soul. This place is a home goods store with a tea tasting room on occasions. There are so many really cute home goods here. I was especially into the United State tea clothes and cups. There was a different one for each state. Sort of like the Starbucks been there series. I was really into the happy music, and when I thought it, I immediately saw a CD stand that said "the music you are listening to right now". How is that not so thoughtful!?

Nice gifts from leather goods, candles, soaps, jewelry, books, stationary, kids clothing, greeting cards, etc. The establishment is a great size, and the customer service is on point.

I loved both of my purchases and can't wait to return back to support even more.

We were visiting Occoquan on a Monday and just happened to venture into this store and we're glad we did! My wife and I are expecting our first child and Gift and Gather had a really cute selection of onesies, bibs, small dolls, etc. When we entered the store, we were quickly greeted and welcomed into the store. Parking was easy and they had street parking right out front. Aside from cute baby stuff, they also had handmade/locally sourced soaps, gifts, shirts, etc. They had some items featuring dogs and things like that. They had a selection of fine tea and also really nice shaving/razor sets for men. Some really great gift ideas. As we finished up our visit and checked out the lady made some nice lunch suggestions, other stores she liked, and events coming up in Occoquan. She also did a really nice job of wrapping our purchase and tissue paper and a nice bag --a huge plus if you're shopping for a gift. We will definitely visit Gift & Gather next time we're in Occoquan! I added some photos (note they are from the business's Facebook page).

This is a perfect stop for anyone looking for that special little gift or trinket for a friend or loved one.

I didn't catch her name but the lady who works the desk is extremely welcoming and helpful as well. You need a decretive piece of wood art with a snappy little quip about wine or alcohol, they've got it. Perhaps you want something that displays your or someone you knows patriotic fervor, it's here. Or you may like a new dish or two as a centerpiece that strikes up conversation at your next get together, well then, you guessed it, it's waiting for you. There's no reason not to check this place out. Have some brunch at the Secret Garden Cafe then take a foot-tour of this amazing town, and pop in to see this place in all its glory. Enjoy!

It was clear they did not want to work over the week surrounding Memorial Day, and now we are stuck scrambling with not enough time to find another option.

It is professionally done and I have confidence it will last well beyond any shed I might have bought from a hardware store or wholesaler. It all came together in about a month and a half. Three visits: one to assess the site, one for the foundation to be built (a gravel pad to go on top of my grass, a separate service and cost through a contractor Ted works with), and a half day in which the shed itself was built. I did not need many fancy add-ons as it's only for tool storage, but nevertheless I am glad it came standard with opening windows, a ridge vent, and a lock & key. One thing I did opt to pay more for is the ramp, which makes all the difference getting bicycles and lawnmowers in and out. I would highly recommend Outdoor Home Center if you want an excellently built and no-hassle shed.
