Like Your Best Friend's Closet, shopping at Your Best Friend's Home is like visiting family. Everyone is so nice and helpful. The customer service really is spectacular at these stores. This is a store that's figured out the fine line between helpful and annoying. Because it's a consignment home goods store, you never know what to expect. You can, however, expect the prices to be pretty darn good and the quality to be top notch. The owner is really good at selecting quality pieces for the store. Both stores are located in a tiny strip mall. Parking can be tight when it's busy, but for the most part, it's not a bad lot. It's also located off the main drag, so it's not too hard to pull into the strip mall or out of it! They keep an active social media page, so be sure to 'like' them to keep up with their sales and merch! Overall, this is a great place to check out if you're in the area!

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.

This shop is nestled right on the Main Street of Crystal lake . Growing up here this was the only shopping area and it still has its charm and thrill to walk in the shop to see what is new!

When I've been in Crystal Lake other times, I've wondered about this shop but have either not had…read moretime to stop in it or it has been closed when I've been there. Today when I was in town I took the opportunity to walk around a bit. There are a lot of nice looking housewares and decor throughout the store. It's actually quite large, and had an upstairs design area as well. Lots of pillows, furniture, wall art, and so on. The women in the store were busy with other customers when I and others entered, but once she was done she came and welcomed us to the store and asked us if we needed any assistance. There wasn't anything I needed and between buying some other home decor items and spending money with guests visiting, I didn't really want to spend any money and just wanted to take a look around. There was one item I found, a navy-colored, ~leather, mirrored tray; however, when the two sizes were $60 or $90 and when I turned it over I there was a big made in China mass production sticker on it, which was pretty disappointing for a store that has so many items that appear to be locally made or at least have a local flavor. I would visit again to wander or if I was looking for something specific (and I'll bet they have some lovely things around the holidays). However, I'd try to learn about the origins of what I was buying and if it's just an assembly line piece to help me determine what I'd be willing to pay for whatever I was purchasing.

On my way back to Chicago from Madison I was trying to make it in time to stop here and see what goodies I might want. I did indeed leave with some things and can't wait to put them up come October! But the best part was chatting with the shopkeeper. Lorraine is a gem! I spent more time chatting with her than shopping (I was able to pick out what I wanted straightaway!). Luckily there was no one else in the shop whilst I was there and I didn't keep her too long since I left at 5:00 exactly (quitting time). I will 100% be back because they have too many beautiful things that I want in my house.

Lots of Japanese, French, German, Greek, Vietnamese, and more specialty items. I love the imported Oreos from Asia. There's also a section of decorations, clothing, and even quirky knick knacks you can give as gifts. There's a nice wine selection and kitchen items to browse. We've bought various artwork from here. It's hard to tell you why you should come here, but you should come here when you want to buy something unique and unexpected.

This antique mall is really big and there were plenty of amazing things that were featured. I was impressed that they sold modern items like Pokemon cards or am I just getting old myself. We spent nearly an hour checking out everything that this place had to offer and if this is your first time here you will definitely get lost in all the treasures getting lost in a variety of rooms. The basement was probably the least interesting room that they had to offer. I did enjoy various goodies that they did have nonetheless it's also the only antique store open on Sunday too. I did enjoy their Wall of Shame at the very front. Overall, I thought this place was really good and worth checking out!

The original church doors and windows are really pretty and make for a nice ambiance inside. Items for sale range from old glass medicine bottles and candlesticks to some furniture and paintings. There's older (vintage) items and modern produced items available. You'll see the typical goat soaps and salsas mixed in with old items. Prices are fairly high, but that's to be expected at a place that takes time to organize and display items so nicely. The overall design/feel is a copy of many other small town "vintage" shops, but this one is bigger and was built out by someone that has more money than the the people that own the smaller versions you'll find scattered in small towns across the US. My thought is that you really won't find anything worth buying. You'll likely find yourself trying to justify a purchase that you can get cheaper elsewhere. If you're looking for typical "vintage" stuff, you'll find it for way less $ at a resale shop, but you'll have to dig around a bit and will need to clean it up. Worth it for the savings and mystery, in my opinion. I don't know if this store will last, but it sure does look nice.

Will definitely be heading back another time of year to see what seasonal items they have then.
