Awesome merch and good selection of unique gift items. I'll never shop here tho. The service and…read moreintegrity is horrible! Recently received a gift from here w/gift receipt. It wasn't the right fit so I went in for an exchange. Found a cute replacement and even tho it was three times the price I decided to splurge. Picked up a basket full of anddi items too! I was informed that since it was more than 7 days since the purchase...no exchange. Was that included on the receipt? Nope. Was there a sign at the checkout counter? Nope!! In fact, the employee at the register wasn't aware until he called the manager because the register wasn't working properly. After politely explaining my disappointment and the missed opportunity to quadruple the sale, the worker said he couldn't do anything. I promptly left and sent an email to the owner/founder through the website. Mainly, in an effort to provide feedback that simply made good business sense, and to share my disappointment. The response...crickets. No acknowledgment or explanation on their part. Service is everything and when it's bad...it makes a lasting impact. I won't ever shop here and I don't recommend anyone does...the halo IS crooked.

They are only open Thursday's through Sunday so we lucked out. They have only been open in this location for a short while. They do a lot of estate sales and work with realtors and decorators, so they have some amazing one of a kind vintage items. The place is large inside (but tastefully arranges) so you'll want to take your time browsing. And there's even an outdoor area with trellises and patio related stuff. Around every corner is another treasure. But it's so nice to find very reasonable prices that anyone could afford to shop here. The co-owners were very personable and nice enough to patiently answer all our questions. Some of the large dramatic pieces (there's a huge elephant picture for example; furniture) each has a story to go along with them. And the gals are happy to tell you the background. As we were traveling in the area, we were looking at their smaller intriguing items -- teapots, candelabras, pillows, jewelry, small figurines, accessories, etc. etc. If you are a collector, you'll probably find something here you can't pass up to add to your collection. My only disappointment was that e didn't have more time to shop. We had places to go... But next time we are in the area, we will plan to really take our time.

Fabulous finds. Very quality stuff. Owner is great to work with!…read moreBought a stunning desk/lamp. Very quality!

Paradise Vintage Market 1-4-25 Stopped by this Market on…read moreMonday about 11:15am on North Ft Myers 41. There was plenty of parking with lots of Handi-Cap spaces right in front of the Market building. One thing to mention the sign on the building says Antique Mall, but it's called the Paradise Vintage Market. Once inside all I can think of is wow lots of items for sale. This store is packed full of different venders which have their spaces or what I call Little Stores. Its like a flea market but inside a building. None of the little stores have people inside them. All Items are displayed and if you pick something out you take it to the front of the store to pay for it. Good thing is there is no one to bug you trying to sell you anything. You could spend a couple hours in there just browsing around. It is Air conditioned, and they do have Rest Rooms in the building and for all the items in there its clean and neatly organized. To many items to mention them all but they have anything from Cloths, Furniture, Antiques, Signs, Records, Toys, Dolls, Fishing Rods to name a few. Go there spend of time looking around you will have a blast. I give this place a 4 out of 5 stars. Follow Me On FB For More Fun Gulf Coast Terry

This store has everything for me to be chic, ironic, & fabulous! Unique pieces for your wardrobe, stylish canvas backpacks, hilariously obnoxious home decor from napkins, to pot holders to glassware, spot-on aprons, socks, change purses that speak to the witty divas like myself. I do wish for some racial ambiguity in some of the items as my mother "loves her asshole children" (pot holder) but we do not look like the leave it to beaver family. Perhaps a geographic limitation but nonetheless there is something for everyone in ever niche of the store. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful as we grazed each corner. They made suggestions and allowed us to enjoy the experience of shopping there-- because truly that is what it is, a unique experience

They charged me over $2,000.00 and honestly threw a few throws on the beds and added some furniture that I wouldn't use in an old cottage. My home was already beautiful and only needed a few high end pieces and pictures to finish it off. To say they ruined the look of my house is not an exaggeration. Even my real estate agent was shocked and disappointed. They did take everything out but still charged me a large fee for nothing. My family and friends were actually laughing when I showed them the pictures and could not believe the job they did. Just be careful if you use them and get pictures of the items they are going to be using before you give them any deposit. If you're not happy they don't stand behind their work and will keep your money. Extremely hard to believe they would ever get any 5 star reviews.

I asked Adriana about paint colors as I was due to have my home interior painted prior to selling. Adriana brought large sample swatches and laid them in the various rooms to see how the light in each room was reflected. She selected the paint colors and the result is stunning. Since staging the home in its entirety she had professional photos taken and the result is, yes, AMAZING. Having been fortunate enough to experience the expertise of Stage and Amaze - when I buy my next home I will have them stage my new home right away. Why wait until you are selling and miss out on living in wow surroundings. High praise for Stage and Amaze. They exceeded my expectations.

According to their website "we carry plants, garden supplies, books, gifts, and locally made items. Maximizing the enjoyment of life spaces through nature, imagination and thrift." Rick Molek is the owner of Thrifty Garden and he opened this micro-nursery in January of 2018. In addition to the gifts and plant supplies, Molek offers workshops on raising houseplants and also offers a houseplant hospital by appointment. Houseplants are a great choice for novice gardeners when Florida's temperatures start to soar the 90's. Thrifty Garden offers many different types of houseplants in the shop, and prices are affordable so you can flex your green thumb with minimal risk. They have offered in-person classes on plant care ever since the shop opened and with the pandemic they added online and phone coaching too. Don't forget that they offer beer and wine too. Now that is the kind of gardening that anyone can get behind. Check out their selection of raw honey and naughty garden gnomes. You can find a list of events on their website.
