What a cute place. Very underrated. I got a super fun bumper sticker but if I was going for a…read morefriend's birthday or holiday time I would buy more. There's such a wide selection and it's layed out really well. The staff was pretty friendly too and there was no line.

This small gift shop in Crystal Lake has a little bit of everything. It was pretty busy here at…read morewhilst I was visiting because it was the day of the Johnny Appleseed Festival. They have a lot of baby items here, which was a bit surprising. They have other decorative tchotkies; when I was in it was late September, so there were Halloween themed goodies to be had, as well as some Thanksgiving decor. They had a Halloween tree... like a ceramic Christmas tree that you sometimes see with the little pieces that fit into the boughs of the ceramic tree but in orange and purple. When did we start having Halloween trees? I also saw some jewelry and other gifts. It's not the shop I would go to Crystal Lake for, but I have been curious about this shop the last couple times I have been in Crystal Lake so I'm glad I stopped in this time.

My friend needed a small gift and wanted something from Augustine's. We both ended up spending way…read moremore than we planned to on such beautiful, heartfelt gifts.. some for ourselves. :-) But there's no way we could have found anything specific without Courtney's help. She was so knowledgeable and kind, she lead us around the store and shared with us the healing properties of so many different items. She answered any questions she had. And Anna created the most beautiful spray of my favorite essential oils. They were so amazing and nice. We left feeling like we had the most beautiful experience. Thank you!!! We'll be back!

ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME!! Employees love to racially profile…read morepeople who are obviously dark or when speaking a different language. Came here for the first time with my Hispanic mother who had this place in her bucket list, was COMPLETELY trash btw, the moment we walked in we were welcomed then when I spoke in my mother tongue , they started acting like they needed 10 toes on top of us, the employee basically started convo that there's cameras monitoring the place when all I asked him how much a price was for a certain item, yall overprice the smallest bs and unless ur a white influencer, this is a good spot for u but if ur any sort of minority, don't waste ur time with the white trash working here. I'm coming back but next time I come back I'm unleashing hell on you guys and scaring every customer in that store

I only recently heard about the store and then when I saw on their Instagram that they do permanent…read morejewelry and are currently having a sale, that was the motivation I needed to stop in. They are located in Wicker Park near the North/Milwaukee/Damen Avenues intersection, so it's always mega busy. The store was really quiet when I went in though. There was someone at the counter with a couple people looking at some merchandise, and I wandered around a bit. There wasn't quite as much merchandise as I had expected. They had some interesting jewelry, candles and incense, tarot cards, and so on. Flowers, of course! There was an employee making a bouquet as I looked around, and another... supervising, I guess (facetiousness on my part; I don't know what she was doing). When the folks left one of the staff asked fi I needed help (not the one who was helping the couple) and she showed me the permanent jewelry options when I asked. It was nice, and they have a Godo discount, but their charm selection was a little disappointing. They have about five charms, dangly stones and a heart. She said they were diamond I think? They also have chains in gold, rose gold, and silver. I liked the chains but since there weren't charms that struck my fancy I will likely wait and go somewhere else for permanent jewelry. There is no parking here. You might find street parking on North Avenue, Damen, or Milwaukee, but the neighborhood streets are permit parking all day long.

I love this place for picking up unique incense as well as amazing sage bundles. They also have…read morereally unique Palo Santo and incense burners which I thought were really cool. Actually, they also have amazing candlestick holders and great floral arrangements. If you need a plant or some unique gifts from a local spot that's been around forever from what I hear, check it out. Picked up some more stuff today for my sister's birthday! Definitely will be returning in the near future. Thank you, Asrai Garden! Really cool shop. Happy Holidays~
