And not only is it great to…read morelook at, it is totally functional as well (they state it to be microwave safe, oven proof, dishwater safe, and contains no toxic materials), and so beautiful too - with what we think are quite unique, lovely, and colourful glazings (inside and out). We first saw their pottery on display, and for sale last year, at Canwest Art's 'Gallery on the Lake' in Harrison Hot Springs, and could not resist buying several pieces for ourselves and as family gifts. Several coffee mugs, and small, stoneware 'pots' (each filled with gourmet honey - from Nicola Valley, Merritt, BC), came home with us from those first sightings of their offerings. When we were back in Harrison this May, although we did not buy any additional pieces, we sure admired several (especially their 'bean pots' and/or 'casserole dishes' - they are just gorgeous!!), and developed a "wish list" to be considered when we return for a stay this September. Mud, Sweat & Tears produce some wonderful pottery ... so good looking, and functional too!!

There's never any pressure and there are almost always sale items at the back. It's a lovely smallish boutique store with a nice vibe.

My 3 sisters and I discovered this boutique on a recent girls weekend at Sun Peaks. We were in the…read morestore for quite some time and between us spent close to $700.00. However, shortly after leaving the store we realized that 2 of us had purchased identical shirts from the sale rack but that we'd been charged 2 different prices for them; mine being marked at $24.99 and my sister's being marked at $34.99. We returned to the store thinking that my sister had been overcharged but were surprised when the sales assistant first tried to tell us that mine was "older" stock and had therefore been marked down by 70% while my sisters' was newer so was marked down 50%. When we pointed out that both shirts had the same RO# on them she then told us that someone else who worked in the store "sometimes marks things at different prices". She then agreed that both shirts were "old" stock but continued to make excuses about why they were priced differently. We realized that she was not about to refund my sister the $10.00 difference. When we said we didn't understand [her rationale] she appeared to be annoyed and spoke in a rather loud voice and asked my sister if she wanted her to refund her credit card for the $10.00. At this point we were beginning to feel embarrassed as there were other customers in the store. My sister decided there was no point in pushing this sales assistant further, so we told her no and left the store. I'm amazed that the sales assistant didn't have the decency or smarts to refund the $10.00 immediately in this situation. We left feeling ripped off by 406 Boutique. Customer service can make or break a shopping experience and I don't think we'll be going back to this store again.

It is not packed full of stuff, it just takes up a smaller section of the store, more than it does anything. My husband did find some stuff he was looking for that has been sold out online for awhile, so that cool for him. It is worth checking out if you are in the area, since you might find some kind of awesome antique you can't live without while you are in there. It seemed to fit Kamloops perfect.
