I'm amazed this little gem hasn't been reviewed before. Or maybe many people see the sign and…read moreassume it's exactly like every other gift shop with tiny little knick-knacks that will just collect dust on the receiver's shelf. This gift shop is where I go when I want to buy a treat for myself! They have purses, ornaments, Pandora, Lampe Berger, but that is not typically what I am buying for myself. I'm typically buying the Voluspa or other heavily scented candles or some of the french milled soap (and no, it's not cheap). And listen up guys - your ladies would like these candles probably with some of the scented bath salts they sell! So next time you are making a run for HEB or into Spec's, then give this place a shot if you have a birthday or anniversary approaching! You'll love your new goodies!

You'll also find a good selection of items for fans of BLACKPINK, TXT, MonstaX, Ateez, etc -- you name it! It's not the flashiest, most beautiful store in the world. But the lady behind the counter was friendly, and the prices are very fair.

I came here for chocolate gift since they do have chocolate and pecans. I ended up with some chocolate but it wasn't what I expected entirely. Probably not the best place if chocolate is more of what you want. I was wanting some chocolate covered pecans but they didnt seem to have that at the time which surprised me. The staff was helpful otherwise to the best of their ability. I knocked a star only because for me, the prices were too high. I probably would look elsewhere next time for some pecan gifts although it has nothing to do with the quality here. I did end up with good gifts but it hurt my wallet a little more than I wanted.

My first and only visit to a Painted Tree Boutiques was not what I expected. I was very pleasantly…read moresurprised to find that this was not the typical big box craft store. The store is jammed with such a large variety of items that I can't find the appropriate category which to label them. The store has something of interest for everyone. It appears to feature small businesses in kiosk size stations of clothes, sauces, jellies, seasonal items, home decorations and the list goes on forever. The store draws you in to explore looking for what you'll find around the corner or next isle. This isn't my typical style of shopping so I can't determine whether the items represent a good value, however, I didn't go into sticker shock at any point.

Painted tree is a building with tons of vendors located inside. This review is for painted tree. I…read morefeel like if you have a problem with something you bought you should review that vendor and not the building. As for the vendors that are there, I feel like painted tree should do a better job veting who can get a booth. Some of the items looked like they were just from Harwin. If you go down the main middle aisle it's usually the best vendors. Once you go further away from the center the weirder things get. Because it has a bunch of random vendors you can sometimes find a dress at more than one vendor and just check prices and grab the cheapest one. Happened to me today. Vendor right across the aisle had the same dress for $10 cheaper. The dressing rooms are clean and sometimes they have a live band in the back of the store. You can find so many items here and the prices depending on the vendor can be really great! I guess it's kind of like a flea market but for boutiques or vendors. If you come just wear comfy shoes cause you will be walking a lot!!

Katy Mills is one of my favorite malls to visit and a great place to get your steps in because it's…read moreso large. There are so many stores to explore that it's easy to spend an entire afternoon walking around and shopping. They are home to Houston's first Primark location. The store is huge and has a wide selection of seasonal clothing, accessories, and basics at really affordable prices. I was impressed by how much there was to browse. The outlet stores throughout the mall consistently offer great deals, which is one of the reasons I keep coming back. I especially enjoy shopping at Vineyard Vines and have found some great discounts there over the years. Parking is spacious and plentiful, so even when the mall is busy, finding a spot usually isn't a problem. If you're looking for variety, outletpricing, and a full day of shopping, Katy Mills is definitely worth the trip.

The staff are simply wonderful, genuinely friendly, and extremely helpful. Also, they hand out KOI pellets to those of us who are addicted to them. I have had the privilege and pet the KOI while feeding. It's unlike any other experience you've had. My most recent visit was to pick up some "Dirty Dirt" which is dirt made from food waste compost from the Heights area of Houston. While they're much more expensive, its top quality product and all of my plants thrive living in it. I planted my most recent batch of garden plants, several different types of Certified Organic/Non-GMO potatoes (the plants are sprouting thru the dirt and it's only been a week!). In addition, I got an Orange tree, Swiss Mint, and a few other little goodies for my back yard. The staff answered all of my questions and I went home feeling like I had a true experience. I spent 2.5 hours there, they were very peaceful and happy 2.5 hours. I highly recommend spending some time here.
