Abundant Living Gallery & Gifts is a good place to shop for souvenirs and home décor. Many items are either made in Michigan or are Michigan themed. Owner Pam was very friendly and welcomed me to the store as soon as I entered. She told me about some of her new items including cherry products made in Traverse City. I also saw jewelry and home items that I thought would make good gifts for friends, family, and colleagues. Pam also gave me good recommendations for stores and restaurants in the area and told me about Third Friday in Wyandotte which sounds like an opportunity for the downtown area to showcase their businesses. I recommend visiting Abundant Living Gallery & Gifts when in downtown Wyandotte. The city's downtown area is worth stopping by when passing through Downriver.

The owner took the time to listen and tell me he would be on the lookout. You can spend a while just looking at all the items and if they don't have it, if it involves stones they might be able to make it. I found some items I never seen in other shops. Chakra heart set with heart shaped stones had to come home with me. Prices are fair and it is great to be supportive of a small business. They use to be in the local mall, but moved to a more easily found location.

I ordered lilacs, or other flowers if they couldnt do lilacs, all over the cake and the Happy Birthday greeting. What i got was 3 splats of a flower the greeting, and mostly a blank, boring cake for $50.00. Kroger, Sams or Walmart could have done way better for half the price. I expected more from a custom bakery. Sorry about your cake, honey. Ive gotten many beautiful cakes elsewhere in other places like Wyandotte or Garden City but thought i would try my own neighborhoods new business. I feel Like they were in a hurry and cut corners. They didnt even write Happy Birthday, but used a prop instead. Disappointed.

In all fairness, their posts on another site warned we might have to take an alternate route, but my friend and I still managed to drive in circles a bit before finally finding the huge sign out front! But, that's ok-Trenton is a cute little town so we enjoyed the unintentional exploring. We expected the store footprint to be a little larger, but there were still plenty of things to look at and choose from. Metalwork dominates. There was a flock of hot pink metal flamingos, huge multi-colored roosters and bright red cardinals on wire hangers and metal stakes. There were enormous sunflowers, wind chimes and rock sculptures. And lots more. The back room had some vintage items including a couple of ladders that would be great for hanging quilts. According to the very nice gentleman behind the counter, they are usually open spring - Christmas and the stock changes as they sell out and replace with new merchandise. Around the holidays it becomes a big gift shop. If you are in the area, it is worth a stop. My advice would be to pair it with lunch and a visit to some of the shops along W. Jefferson downtown and make a day of it. You won't get dirty at The Dirty Hoe, but neither will you have to work hard to have a good time. Overalls not required.

After spending nearly $100 at Glow Fish Studios during a relaxed visit on my day off several years…read moreago, I received a direct text from the owner accusing me of stealing a $60 necklace and threatening to press charges unless I returned it. There was no proof, just that the item was missing. I told her I didn't take anything and offered to help look for it--if she stopped threatening me. Instead, she took me to court. It took three months for them to produce video footage, which confirmed what I'd said all along: I never stole anything. I was not found guilty of any crime, yet I was forced to pay over $1,500 in legal costs simply to defend myself against a baseless accusation. Glow Fish Studios doesn't feel like a business anymore--it feels like a sting operation run by someone who gets a little too much satisfaction from accusing and humiliating people. I used to shop here often. I have no criminal background. This was deeply traumatic, and it seems they care more about "catching shoplifters" than actually treating customers like human beings. If you value integrity, avoid this place. They are not the small business they pretend to be. Overpriced shit that isn't even from real witches. Just gentrified, rich white women who profit off aesthetics, not authenticity. Save yourself the drama and support Motown Witch or Moonlit Mystic LLC--actual Black-owned Detroit shops that honor the craft and don't treat their customers like suspects.

Damian's solution did not work and I ended up using my solution that I tried to pitch to him while I was in the store. I will never shop again at Hood's.

I am now an almost expert thanks to Patti. She tested oils on her hand, wrist and fingers for me to smell. She explained in detail what I had to do, what I shouldn't do. No rushing me even when another customer needed her help, I was able to peruse the store, as I am known to do no matter what I am there for. I bought the starter kit because although I am very wealthy (tongue firmly in cheek), I am that way because I start small and go big when needed (insert smiley face here). Thank you, Patti.

When I received it, I found out that the watch was not genuine and even the buckle was gold plated. He kept insisting the watch was genuine because some salesperson told him it was at the Omega Boutique. After doing research online. verifying it with Omega Vintage Watch experts, and even a simple search of a 1954 Omega Constellation Watch online, I found out the watch is not authentic or genuine. The watch DOES NOT look like any of the watches online. Even the buckle wasn't an 18K gold buckle but a stainless steel buckle as it was so marked. I wanted a full refund of my money, because the item wasn't as described. The seller kept stalling and stalling, arguing that it was authentic and genuine. I even sent him my research and articles as to why it was not authentic and genuine, and challenged him to search himself online for the 1954 Omega Constellation. I pointed out details (OMEGA MOY Test, the cross hairs not a single solid line from 12 to 3, but broken at the word constellation and the star. He finally agreed to issue me a refund once I sent the item back because I was unhappy and he "would not feel right not making sure you (ME) are satisfied." Item was carefully packaged and shipped back to the seller on October 21, 4:27PM with tracking. The seller stated that he would be out of town until Friday, October 26th. The watch had been delivered with signature verification on October 27th. It is now October 31st and still no refund. I have texted the seller and left messages for him on his cellphone, and he has not responded nor called back. PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN DEALING WITH THIS SELLER. Right now I am out $1646.70, and even had to pay the $39 dollars to ship the watch back to him insured with confirmation. He now has both the item and my money. If you have any questions, need proof of this situation, or comments, please feel free to contact me. chiro2259 at g mail dot com.
