What a GEM! 1232 Broad St. Mercantile is the master mind of 2 women who have their own stores and…read morecombined into this one! The local just call it "Mercantile". My friend Denise, a newer Michigan resident introduced me to this gem of a store. It's a collection of vintage pieces and antique furniture with a bit of modern newness sprinkled throughout- there's kid clothes and toys that are bought from elsewhere and brought in. The owners have an eye for beautiful things- there's something here for every room of your house and even outside your house too! Pricing is moderate. I found a gorgeous brass candle holder for $40 and also passed on some artwork that was $175. They have 2 bathrooms while you're shopping that are spacious and clean. Parking is incredibly easy right out front on their property. The pulling out is a bit scary as this shop is on a bend in the road. The gal working was in constant communication with the owners while we were asking questions about some of the pieces. It was nice that they were on top of their things! I wish they had more of a vintage jewelry selection, but my friend and I both walked away with a few things for our homes!

Specializing in liquidation and overstock furniture from online retailers, Open Box Outlet is…read moreofficially the only reason I came to the Orchards Mall for the first time in years. New product comes in daily according to their Facebook and everything comes assembled, ready to take home. Located in the previous location of Joanne Fabrics location, Open Box Outlet has a large layout where they display an overwhelming number of items. My husband is already excited to come back to check out more items. While the customer service could use a touch of work (greeting customers or at least having someone ask if you need help finding something), I blame the fact they just opened for that and I'm sure they'll get the right number of employees to remedy that. We will definitely be back soon.

Urban garage market used to be a car wash but the owners changed it into a giant antique and new…read moregifts store! There's even a back corner that is currently being rented by a painting class! The absolute best part about Urban Garage = free gift wrap!!! And it's the loveliest paper, colors and presentation! What a beautiful touch of you're looking for a gift (and card!)- the ladies here do everything for you! I thought this was going to be all vintage, but there's a lot of women's clothing. I wish they had a wider range of sizes as they seem to target a younger crop top crowd. It also seems like they have absolutely every item out on the same floor, so some things don't feel special. The jewelry is very cool- a mixture of upcycled pieces and pieces clearly bought in bulk. They have a gorgeous stationery section and their candles are unique (and make great gifts!) I'm not sure they've yet found their niche as everything seems a bit everywhere. Candlesticks = $18 for a box of two, brass necklace = $48, lamp = $225. I didn't love how one of the gals was trying to sell me with her toxic positivity. It's one thing to be excited about what you're selling but it's another to tell you "everyone NEEDS one of these!" Their naughty cards are hilarious. I bought a few of those as well as a necklace and candlesticks! Thank you friends!

The flowers are beautiful, not over priced, and the bouquets were well put together. I have fond memories of coming out here in the crisp windy weather of fall to chose a pumpkin and some gourds. The pumpkins are always adorably painted, come in varying sizes, and, just like the flowers, aren't overpriced. My mom always complained I had to pick the biggest, most outrageous looking pumpkin in the world. Usually I got a large pumpkin with a famous painting on it like starry night or Mona Lisa. See ya in the fall.
