Large store with a huge clothing department. Of course they had racks and racks of jeans, but I…read morealso saw a few gorgeous dresses, lots of nice sweaters and blouses for women. Typically I stop in resale stores for glassware, dishes and home decor items. Their shelves were quite sparse and what they did have, was easily double the price of The Goodwill. Now double means a drinking glass is $1.99 rather than $.99 so still affordable, but It adds up. They had a lot of Christmas items so I decided to check out the ornaments. Found a beautiful Mrs. Claus for $4.99 and she is now adorning my tree and is so beautiful! Also picked up a box of a dozen large rd glass ornaments and an Angel. For me, this was a good shopping score! They had some decent furniture; coffee table, chairs, side tables. A decent section of tools and garden equipment. staff was friendly. Lots of street parking. Worth the stop.

Many of the pieces reflect the nature and beauty of the Columbia Gorge and Hood River. So much to take in! The shop is also run by artists so they are super knowledgeable and helpful. Enjoyed seeing the cotton tea towels with handmade prints of Hood River flowers, fruit and even beers! Made by Crisp & Tart, I highly recommend these for your own use or for gifts. I have several and I've gifted even more! Recipients are always delighted. Stop in often as the art changes. In the hallway they showcase larger paintings and rotate those artists. Located right on Oak, as the name implies, make it part of your routine! Support local. Support local artisans.

Cute little Boho boutique in The Dalles. The shop is small but the items have been thoughtfully…read morecurated to form a beautiful collection. Maxi dresses with small prints, skirts, Jean jackets, lacy tops, cropped sweaters, jeans, a few purses - a little of everything ! It would be super easy to pull together an entire outfit. There are also gift items like lotion, candles, picture frames. Prices are very reasonable meaning affordable! Service is friendly. Definitely worth stopping in while you are in the area. They are just Around the corner for The Work Shop and Willow & Bark, so a great destination.

From dresses, to t-shirts, to sandals, to jeans.... there is something in here for just about any lady (sorry, fellas, this store isn't for you). I walked out with a new pair of stylish jeans and I absolutely love them! Usually boutiques like this are way overpriced (I'm looking at you Hood River and Portland)... but not this one! Everything seemed very reasonable. I could walk out of here with a new outfit without having to suffer from empty wallet syndrome. Stop and in shop! This place needs to be on your radar. I hope they are around for a long time, because we just don't have anything else like this in The Dalles.

By Appointment Only -…read more Jason Hinkle (Owner) has been finding, cutting and polishing thunder eggs his entire life, and that shows in the works of art he has created with these stones... With multiple sources and his own mining claims he has accumulated an incredible selection of thunder eggs from around the world. Each one has a story; and Jason knows what it is. We have been to Jason's shop on more than a few occasions; we can say enough good things about him; knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating don't begin to describe. Along with rows and rows of sectioned and polished eggs in his shop he also has a small selection of minerals; some are unique and harder to find. Pricing is flexible and very reasonable... While this is not his core business, there are flats and flats to pick through with some truly nice specimens. By appointment he will even take you out to dig thunder eggs yourself... Jason is one of the handful of people in the rock and mineral business that has a true passion for what they do and enjoys sharing it with others. This shop is a MUST SEE for anyone travelling down the Columbia River on 84.

With nature being her inspiration, Kim Thompson creates unique, beautiful, heirloom quality…read morejewelry. Hand forged from sterling silver, many pieces have turquoise and or rosarita (red colored) stones inlaid. Definitely a soohistboho vibe. She makes earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings. I particularly love the silver feather earrings, they really stand out and can be worn daily or to dress up an outfit. Also love the earrings that feature an eagle. And anything with turquoise, my favorite color and stone! Wild Heart Wares has a booth at the Hood River Farmers Market where you can see her jewelry up close, talk with the designer, and try things on. I fell in love with a pair of turquoise inlaid earrings with sterling fringe dangling and made the mistake of not buying them right then and there. Came back the next week and they were gone. I showed Kim the picture I had thankfully taken, and she said that in January, when things are slower, she will do a custom order. Kim is delightful and has so much passion about her craft and the beauty all around us. If you love sterling silver and nature inspired pieces, definitely visit this booth at the Hood River Farmers Market Saturdays 9-1pm. There is also a website so you can purchase jewelry 24/7.

A hidden gem in Hood River!…read more I didn't want to mail my wedding ring to our jeweler for repairs and resizing. Hood River Jewelers was highly recommended by several people I know.
