Nate loves birds, so we stopped in while in the area just browsing the shops. Wren and Sparrow is pretty packed for a smaller shop - they had lots of great items for any bird enthusiast, including gifts, puzzles, lots of bird food, plenty of feeders, including lots that were made of recycled plastic, which I loved, and more. I liked the informational signs that said which birds like which feed. Nate ended up getting a hummingbird feeder ring, kind of as a joke, but also I know he really wishes a hummingbird would land on his hand! The employees working were really helpful - the one who rang up this purchase gave some tips on getting them to land, like wearing lots of red and putting on sunglasses so the hummingbirds can't see your eyes moving, which may deter them! The last thing I noticed is that they had a soundtrack of birdsongs playing throughout the store, which I really liked. Our local bird store is always silent, which I think is so weird!

If you did your shopping just based on the Yelp description of Backdoor Gallery as an 'Art Gallery'…read moreyou might actually avoid this little gem of a store on Caroline Street. DON'T DO THAT. Backdoor Gallery is - IMO - better characterized as a women's fashion boutique or a women's accessories store. Though admittedly the items for sale are mainly handcrafted, artisanal, and/or one-of-a-kind/hand made pieces, they definitely fall under what I'd call ladies' fashion or accessories sales - artistic though they may be! Don't pass up this store by thinking it's another one of Fredericksburg's several Art Galleries with expensive art for sale. If you are a woman - or a man who likes giving women nice gifts - you are bound to find in Backdoor Gallery things that appeal to your refined sense of style and taste AND have a unique, reasonably priced, handcrafted flair. The staff when I've been there are exceptionally friendly & helpful - and dare I say to potential male customers: stunningly beautiful. Hmm. Perhaps it's an Art Gallery after all. I think I'm in love with Backdoor Gallery!

My mother-in-law found this place and dropped off the sewing machine for my 10 yr old daughter. My younger three were w my M-I-L that time and when they heard where we were going they recalled "Oh, we love that place! the lady was so fun and nice .... They complimented our names". So right, away I know the business owners are as gracious w any children in tow, as they are w the adult customers they serve. That matters to me. Today I picked up my daughter's freshly repaired sewing machine, from this wonderful Mom & Pop shop. It was like stepping into a bygone, gentler time. And my children were correct, Deanna & Greg, the married couple that runs this sewing machine & small appliance repair and supplies shop, are a complete delight to interact with. We had some small chat, pleasing laughs, I learned a little more about their business, and both of them were eager to pay my older boy (along w me this time) the courtesy of inclusion in the conversation. I'm a satisfied customer who will surely be back when there is cause to revisit. YES kid friendly
