Vintage 71 is a fun store. I originally discovered them on Facebook and started following them…read more Unfortunately for me, most times when I was in Edwardsville, they were closed. Lucky for me, yesterday I was having lunch in E-ville, so I made a point to stop and see what they had to offer. OMG! If you need silly fun yard decor or if you are into Farmhouse decor for your home, you've got to shop here. There is stuff everywhere and it's all rustic and vintage looking. The creative side of my brain was working at warp speed trying to figure out where I could use many of the items. The couple working were a true mom & pop team. I may have walked out empty handed today, but there were many garden items calling out to me. So I know I will be back. When: April 22, 2021 Why: Browsing for the garden

So glad to find a Home Goods close to my Illinois home. When I lived in STL, I loved the Kirkwood…read morestore and this one is quickly becoming my new favorite. Since the neighborhoods of Edwardsville and Kirkwood are similar, the merchandise in both stores is very similar. Actually, I would be in amazement if someone went into a Home Goods store and walked out with nothing. I think I've only been able to accomplish that once. I can always find some little trinket for the current holiday, a new pot for the kitchen or some new scoop bags for walking the dogs. If you can't find something for yourself at Home Goods, I am confident you'll find a gift or two for a friend or family member. If you haven't been, get yourself out of the house and go shopping. When: Whenever in E-ville Why: Decorating the home or gift shopping

I miss, The Gingham Buffalo being on Main Street in downtown, Edwardsville. I truly enjoyed…read moreshopping the store and being able to easily find a restaurant to enjoy lunch or Happy Hour. However, here at the new location in Glen Carbon, that is not the case. There's nothing nearby, but the positive is the layout and space of the store is so much better. Browsing the GB makes you feel like you are shopping, RH or Pottery Barn. Also, I am a big fan of Olive and Cocoa, a mail order catalog. My most recent visit, I found several items from the catalog, in TGB and I'd rather buy local, then from a major catalog. This store is amazing, the staff is always eager to help. If you shop like me and don't need help, they are cool with that, too. I can spend my money, without any help. If you're decorating your home, or if you need a gift for mom, your BFF and the school teacher, I'm telling you to come here and shop. I challenge anyone to come here and try to leave without buying something. You'll always find an item you gotta have.

Cute, but they moved out of Edwardsville to the middle of nowhere and didn't have much to offer…read more I'm sad because this could be so much more and I think it used to be better in the other location. Not sure how they can compete with other large home stores with similar offerings at much more affordable prices. Maybe some classes or something to get folks in could help? I think the designs and vignettes around the store are lovely, I just think the merch and such should be a bit more competitive and or novel.

If you are looking for a baby shower gift, or a gift for a tiny tot under the age of 5, this is the place. They had a teepee tent that would be so much fun a any little person. The books and the plush toys are also great gifts. I'm an adult and I found a couple of accent pillows that I loved. Mom's and dad's got to check this place out when they are decorating and planning the nursery. OMG!, the furniture here is so cute. When the baby is ready for their own bedroom furniture, WTR can do that as well. If I knew no one had reviewed this place, I would have taken a lot more pictures to show you how great this store is. I don't even have little ones in my family and I loved the store. I hope someone I know has a baby soon, because I want to come back and do some serious shopping.

I recently ordered a sympathy arrangement to be delivered to a local funeral home. I'm aware that…read moresubstitutions may be required for the arrangement based on floral availability. Their website states that substitutions will be of equal or higher value and that the overall theme and integrity of the arrangement will remain intact. The arrangement I purchased did not fulfill this promise. For example, in the website picture of the arrangement, there are 8-9 roses. In the delivered arrangement there are 3. Multiple other details are missing and the final product was a sad downgrade to the original. I don't take giving poor reviews lightly as I know this is someone's livelihood. I wrote the owner to express my dissatisfaction and was basically dismissed. I am posting the website arrangement and the delivered product. Buyer beware.

This shop recently opened and I stopped by today to check it out. They have Ribbon by the miles and I do mean....lots of miles! Every kind of Ribbon you could possibly want; think Halloween, Christmas, Easter and every kind in-between. They have lovely wreaths for your front door and beautiful faux flower arrangements. On the top floor is an area for classes. I'm not sure exactly what kind of classes they offer, but give them a call if you are interested. The lady at the front desk was super nice and I'm sure she would love to answer any questions. Welcome "Waterman's Loft" to Maryville. I hope you do well.
