Naturally most of their cards are based on Williamsburg and W&M so it is a great place to pick something up when visiting to send back to family and friends. Only small gripe is that the cards are somewhat on the expensive side , but definitely very unique.

This is a great little shopped tucked in the beautiful historic Colonial Williamsburg, VA area…read more It's a small, cozy and adorable small shop with a big heart and helping hands and a FREE Museum too!! The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful! I had the pleasure of unexpectedly meeting and speaking with John Fogarty, Burton Parish Church Comptroller, who readily gave me some insight on some of the items displayed in the museum and made me excited to visit their Church too. You are sure to find something unique in this store and the profits are used to do great work for communities. YES!!! I do recommend them to my family, friends, friends or friends and, NOW, the World too!!

While we have been to Bruton Parish church many times, (it's my favorite thing on DOG Street by…read morefar) currently the church is closed for tourist visitation due to the installation of their new organ. With that in mind I figured I would finally make the big one block walk down to the gift shop to see what they've got shakin'. The scene would best be described as part hospital gift shop meets a Hallmark store for the 70 and over crowd. So many little trinkets and nick-knacks everywhere. Also noteworthy is that while the shop has an excellent mission, the prices here are very steep. Deals you will not find and some of the clothing that they're selling has never been seen in public since the Golden Girls was cancelled. Dorthy Zbornak would have had a field day in here. In the back of the building is a small chapel which is very respectfully laid out even if it was odd walking by tables of "discounted" Christmas things right by the entrance. I bought my obligatory Bruton Parish fridge magnet ($7!) and had a nice talk with the one volunteer at the register about the current organ project and a few rumored things happening in the near future. She was really a great ambassador for their brand and truly showed that this is a living-breathing-vibrant Episcopal church. I'm not really a retail person so I doubt I'll be back but if you are into trinkets or curiosities then this place might be for you and at the least it's worth the short trip away from the CW buildings on DOG Street.

They have a great selection of cards, journals, pens, planners, and wrapping papers. It's one of those shops that you could leave and come back in 30 minutes and discover something new. It's curated with love. The people who work here are extremely passionate and helpful. I came here with my manager and we had a blast. She ended up getting a few postcards and a travel planner. I fell in love with a small journal I got for about $16. I loved the journal because it reminded me of the Canal Saint-Martin, I'm excited to use it for card game scoring. There is really something for everyone here. There are lined journals, blank ones, squared one, and more. There is a huge variety of planners with different layouts. It felt like they had something for every preference. Not to mention, the fanciest pens I've ever laid my eyes on. I highly recommend checking this local gem out.

We really enjoyed our experience crafting our wedding invitations with Merrymaker. We sat down with…read morethem for two consultation sessions where they showed us several examples from other weddings, options for paper, colors, shapes, icons, etc. We were able to select multiple different paper colors without issue. Pricing was always transparent, and an initial quote was drawn up for us on the spot during our initial consultation. They were very professional, willing to go through several edits with us remotely, and did great work. Our invitations turned out perfectly and they are a great local business to work with!
