Note this review is for a Ugly Baby workshop in their studio space in Seattle, not the shop itself…read morewhich is located elsewhere. We attended a punch needle pet portrait class and it was fun. No one finished their work (class was 3 hours, but I think we really only stabbed for 2-2.5 due to yarn selection and general instruction time), but you could bring your project and tools home along with any yarn needed. Rosalie knows her stuff and was helpful on answering any questions folk had. Also, worth every penny! Highly recommend for any crafty folk, though no experience necessary when doing this.

In Pikes Place there is a small shop with old movie posters, maps, ads, pictures, all kinds of…read morestuff. It's similar to a vinyl record shop where everything is in bins and you shift through them to see what's available. I love movies and found a number of movie posters in different sizes and from different eras. Classics that I grew up with and classics my grandparents grew up with. Really cool! My other half found a number of old maps. Maps where parts of the world hadn't been discovered at the time. They also have old pictures of famous landmarks. I ended up buying an old picture of Pikes Place. Very interesting place. If you're looking for a unique way to decorate or something for a collection, I'd give this place a look.

Some things were cheap some were a little more pricey just depends on what you're comfortable spending. A lot of things to choose from all very unique and vintage I love it! But as for custom service the man running the place (I'm assuming) was not rude he just didn't say anything I was like "hi" I said thank you and was trying to be friendly but he was very quiet and almost tuning me out in a way. Other than that you should check this place out if your looking for nice vintage posters, cards and other artwork

This little gift shop is packed with irresistibly cute designs by local artist Lauren Rudeck who created the spot as a place to showcase and sell her fun and twee animal art! You can get all sorts of goodies here that feature her original designs, from t-shirts to magnets, stickers, kitchen towels, enamel pins, toys, and all sorts of quirky goodies. Even better, proceeds from sales help support sloth rescue in Costa Rica! This is your chance to buy local and do some good. The gifts here are perfect for anyone on your list. I mean, who wouldn't want a cartoon of a robot fighting a sloth on their fridge or stuck to their laptop? I adore the greeting cards, which make unique notes of cheer for friends and family. Plus, it feels extra nice to support a small local artist while you're snagging a few smiles for yourself or friends. I always come to shop here whenever I'm in Seattle not just to soak up the cuteness, but to buy a few things and leave feeling like the world is a slightly funnier, fluffier place. Warning: you might also leave with more stuff than you intended, but it's totally worth it.

The "hovering" technique is the fastest way to turn a potential sale into a "I'm leaving right now" situation. There is a massive psychological gap between "I am here if you need me" and "I am essentially your shadow." The Desperation: You can see them mentally checking boxes on a manager's "Engagement Checklist." * The Disconnect: They aren't reading the room; they're reading the script. * The Result: A customer who feels hunted rather than helped. Retailers often think that "High Touch" service equals "Constant Contact," but most modern shoppers view their time in a store as a solo mission. We want the associate to be like a GPS: silent and out of the way until we actually take a wrong turn or need a specific destination. When an associate is practically tethered to you, it removes the "discovery" element of shopping. You stop looking at the products because you're too busy trying to figure out how to politely lose your tail And out of all that, I still didn't buy the book as i was focused on writing this review. Damn. This is why we shop on Amazon.
