The staff is always very knowledgeable and offers great recommendations on framing. The staff is always friendly and they never rush you. We've always been extremely happy with their work.

Crystals, CBD infused everything, homemade soaps, jewelry, clothing, oils, vinegar and other condiments, cake & cookie mixes, ready to eat snacks, etc. Indeed, it's quite the eclectic collection. The owner, Kristen Zachares, seems extremely supportive of the local vendors who rent space in her store. She reached out to one of the makers, on my behalf, about a cookie mix without chocolate, took down my phone number and immediately contacted me once hearing back from the maker. In addition to the Buddha chip cookie mix, she is also making oatmeal raisin and sugar cookie kits! Kristen stated she will contact me and leave one to the side when it arrives. I'm sold before it even makes it into the store simply because of the overall exceptional customer service. Would highly recommend a visit to support/buy local. Great store for gifts or be selfish : )

When I came back to pick up my piece the worker there was much nicer but I've seen similar complaints about the service and I'd assume it is more likely than not to run into it. The manager was one of the unprofessional people I had dealt with the first time being there so it's not a place that cares too much about customer service and professionalism. Other than that the activity in and of itself was enjoyable and the art came out good!

I surprised the Mrs. on Valentine's Day and we had a scent-sational time here. It's set-up 'buffet style' - starting at one end of the room and you slowly make your way down a wall with an absurd amount of options for what catches your nose, then a section with various options (sizes/styles) for the container to house your eventual candle. Back to the 'bar' to start working on your candle (with the help of the amazing staff) and before you know it... you're done. (Well, you have to come back at a later time to get the finished product.) The 'activity' was slated for one full hour but within 30 minutes almost everyone was done and left. (We were the only couple imbibing - so we were there pretty close to the full 60 minutes.) I can't say enough good things about the crew behind the counter - ebullient to the nth degree. The shop looks amazing, the candle (I got to pick it up a week later) is great and most importantly: I got brownie points with the Mrs. for the unique and memorable experience. A bit on the pricy side but wick-ed fun, for sure. (If you know Montclair and this area specifically... parking can be a challenge.)

It's a very lovely space, and the parking is not terrible (there is a lot down the street by the train station). I have visited this bookstore about three times, and each time, I am turned off by the lack of friendliness from the staff. No one has ever greeted me upon entering or said goodbye on the way out. The only time I ever heard someone greet a customer is to tell him to put his drink away. Even though this store is about five minutes from where I live, it is not my go-to.
