From candles, jewelry, ornaments, household decor, custom dips, beauty products, cards, and so much more. The owner was in and just so kind. Warm mulled cider was available and it was delicious! Price per item was very reasonable. You can opt for a meaningful gift at a very effective price. Gift bags were lovely as well. Parking is at no cost and on the side of the building.

We've stopped by this place several times prior to this visit & we always had a great time. It's…read moreour stop whenever we go to the Quabbin reservoir for a nature fix. They have crystals, gemstones, smoke bundles/incense, candles, statuary, religious goods/gifts and much more. The prices are reasonable and you can find a little gift for yourself or for others on a budget. I love their selection of votive candles in the back & left with three. I also grabbed a couple gemstone friends & my husband gifted me with a new big Our Lady of Guadalupe/Virgin Mary statue. He got himself a new set of tarot decks & a rainbow Chakra candle. We'll keep this place in mind every time we're over there. In the age of online ordering/Amazon I still prefer to buy in person especially for items like these & from local businesses.

One of the things that makes Northampton, well, Northampton, is Essentials. I started shopping at…read moreEssentials almost twenty years ago, and it's been a staple of my quirky life ever since. It's changed hands twice in my awareness, and just keeps getting better and better with age. This is a design-focused, design-heavy shop, and there are things I can pretty much only get AT Essentials; for instance, they've got a cut-to-custom-length ribbon bar, and some of that ribbon is vintage, and my absolute favorite is the hand-dyed silk. Also, they've got the best collection of Tintin and other European character favorites (like Barbapapa and Babar) this side of the pond. Oh, and the staff is wonderful. Knowledgable, friendly, thoughtful, and creative. Over the years, the cast of characters has changed, but it's always top-shelf. One giant boon: they've helped me put together a gift in no time, saving my bacon on numerous occasions! On a typical day, you can find stationery of all kinds, the indier the better; dishware; rubber stamps; intriguing books (think Chronicle); bath goods; bags of all shapes, sizes, and purposes; clothes and scarves; eight million things for kids, from blankies to onesies to stuffed alligators; jewelry; small home goods; special pens; DIY kits; custom furniture; large sheets of beautiful artisan paper; and a ton of things I'm forgetting. And one other thing about Essentials I am not forgetting, but which I saved for last, because it's my favorite. Essentials has an in-house design and print studio. And they also work with a select group of indie designers and printers who create everything from business cards to party invites. Here is where Colette, the current owner, really freaking shines, in my opinion. There was one thing I wanted when it came time to get married. One. Thing. That one thing was letterpress wedding invitations from Essentials. Colette took us from beautiful nebulous idea to flawlessly-executed product without ever breaking a sweat. I don't know if you've ever worked with people who are about to get married, but we are not always the most poised, cool-headed, or unflappable of people; Colette sat us down in the big comfy chairs and made sketches and phone calls, and really made our family feel like we were the only people in the entire world. Go see what I'm talking about - our invitation is probably still hanging in its golden-framed, green-paper-backed glory. Nearly four thousand miles away now, and I'm still bouncing in my chair as I look forward to my next trip to Essentials, whenever it may be.

We received a lovely gift of several girls garments, however we have a male child. The store manager, who did not have the courage to call us, rather made a sales associate do their work, informed us without a receipt we can not get a store credit. So wonderful Essentials, you made some money from this sale, but you lost a lot more revenue from this here shopper.

Everybody there is so friendly and welcoming, and they do a lot for the community! The store itself is so cute and "homey". There is something for everybody there!

If you are looking for a mid week pick me up, flowers for a friend or any special occasion, Feather And Bloom will exceed your expectations! Overall it is a great place for a one stop shop!

I could not disagree more with the reviewer above. I LOVE 'Cooper's' - they have wonderful gifts,…read morejewelry, unique clothing & home furnishings. I've always found the staff at 'Cooper's' to be friendly and helpful. Yes, you may not be greeted. And, if you want help, you probably just have to ask for it. I like the fact they leave you alone to browse. But the minute you ask for help, they're with you in a second. And the staff - and owner - are always unfailing friendly. I like the fact I'm not being constantly bothered by the often-phoney, "How are you today?"... "Did you find what you were looking for?".... etc. etc. etc. I like being able to browse in peace!

I wasn't sure if this would be a store for me. On Mother's Day, I decided to stop in. This store is awesome! So many things for my mom but really so many things for myself. I moved back to Massachusetts two years ago. This house is very different than my house in Oklahoma City. So I keep looking for things to make the house my home. They also charitable. They do round up and pick a charity to give to. So cool! I signed up for emails. I also started following Kate at Coopers on Instagram. She does a barn sale. Where you purchase the item, pay for it and either have it shipped or pick it up. So great for people that can't get to the store. Also, the items are usually a great discount. My first barn sale I bought the cutest sign that I hung on my front door. The prices are a little more than I usually spend. But the items are unique. And if you wait Kate usually has a sale. Coming up on Veteran's Day she is having a store wide sale. One weekend when she was having a sale I bought a cute clock and large mirror with a white border for my kitchen. Recently, I received an email with a 20 percent off coupon. This time I bought my dog a cute canister for his treats. This is definitely a place to stop. Look around there are two floors of items all over the store. Also follow the store on Facebook, twitter and instagram. Then you will know what kind of specials she has going on.
