I am not a gardener, nor do I want to worry about taking care of house plants. However, Sarah (my…read morewife) needs her houseplants and she asked me to pick up a number of pots and other accessories. While I am no garden or houseplant expert, everybody who works at the store appears to be one. And the staff was particularly friendly and helpful with helping me pick out the most appropriate soil and containers for our plants. When it comes time for us to start our garden this year, I'll be back.

What a gorgeous store. I drive past often and today stopped at the dentists on the same street…read more Even though I had a numb mouth after the dentist and was talking with a lisp, I just had to take a peek. The lady who owned the store was chatting away showing off new items in the clothing boutique at the back of the room. She was lovely and very approachable. I needed up buying a top and necklace for my mother in law. The fashion is really nice and aimed at ladies in their 40s+ I would say. I was into plenty of it, as they have a really nice on trend rack. The home wares are fun interior decor items inc paintings, ornaments, furniture, vases and mirrors. I have my eye on a cactus cookie jar. They were in the middle of taking down all their Christmas stuff so can't wait to see what stock they put in it's place.

Many items are very appealing and would look great in a variety of different rooms within a home. Not only are there Decor items, the store also carries Clothing, Jewelry, and a variety of Handbags as well. I had no idea this store existed until I looked on Yelp and realized that I drive by this store on the way to work every day. So glad I stopped in. Worth a look!

The quality of the stuff there was mostly awesome. I didn't see anything that was dying or looked sick. ONE! Just one! Out of all the plants I picked up had signs of spider mites. For a greenhouse, that's damn amazing. The stuff is priced just like any other small greenhouse, but I did get a beautiful coleus for only $6. I left with 3 gorgeous plants and only paid $42. Will definitely be back!

Best greenhouse quality I have EVER found in Alberta!…read more My family usually shops at Hole's in St. Albert which has excellent products - but a little on the pricey side to fill my flower beds. I won a gift certificate to Visser's on the radio, so we made the trek over to Visser's and boy oh boy were we impressed! The quality of their flowers were amazing and everything was displayed so artistically! They had the best flower baskets I have EVER seen - overflowing with lush flowers! The baskets were mostly $35 or 2/$60. They had a sale on bedding plants so we stocked up and brought home the most beautiful Fuschia hanging basket! Their staff were super knowledgeable and helpful, too! We went on the weekend and they had free coffee, water, and donuts. Later in the day they open a little hot dog stand. They had two play areas for children - one inside the green houses and one outside with a large sandbox - such a great idea! And yes, we had a toddler en tote! They have a super friendly dog there by the name of Bear who also helped to entertain my 2 year old. They had phenomenal quality herb and tomoato plants at exellent prices. Herbs were $2.50 and they had tomato plants starting at $6. They even had hanging baskets with ever bearing strawberries! I just can't say enough great things about Visser's & I can't wait to go back next year for all of my gardening needs! The one thing they don't have... a lot of accessories or trinkets for decorating your garden. They are a true greenhouse... If you want trinkets or decorations - I recommend the Root Seller or Hole's. At the end I was pleasantly surprised to also discover that they had a gift with purchase for every purchase over $25 on the day we visited - a bag of seed potatoes or a small pack of 3 annuals... what a treat! They also appeared to have a tree farm for Christmas trees... I can't wait to see their beautiful farm covered in snow!

Need a filing cabinet? Siding? Replacement door? Window? Tub? Shower? Tiles, flooring, door knobs, hinges... yup - they might have it. Bannister? Baluster? Fireplace? Sink? Toilet tank lid? There is a collection you should check out. Crafting? Creating? Building? So many great ideas!! Now I have a burning desire to figure out what to do with the circular 1m diffusion covers for light fixtures. Cold Frame? Hmmmm. The folks here are super friendly & always helpful. You need something - come wander, ask questions, and say hi to the shop pup - super loves visitors. Reduce, reuse, recycle, rebuild, repair, repurpose.

There are rooms full of salvaged items and new vintage looking items. Whether your in need of some old doors, cabinets, lighting, fixtures, theatre chairs, windows, stone, nuts/bolts, handles, sink, toilet, furnace, fireplace, baseboard, barn board, shelving, and the list goes on. And on, and on. The fellow who owns the place is super friendly and great to talk to. It would be a miss if I didn't mention Murphy, the adorable store dog who wanders around like he owns the place. I secretly think he does. Make sure to say hi to him while you're there. It's worth stopping in here every month or so, because their stock changes regularly and you never know what you'll find! Happy treasure hunting!

Honestly - this year's curbside pickup setup is SLICK!…read more I placed my order online, products all in stock. Received confirmation email and not far after the pickup order confirmation. Pull in and there's a one-way line at the side of the store and a sign "pull up here, we will see you stay in your car" There were a few of us there, I figured I'd follow the instructions, get in line, call the store... I didn't have a chance to pull out my phone, even as the 3rd car in line, there was someone at my window in seconds! Wearing masks, the gentleman asked my name and reminded me he needed to see some photo ID/Driver's licence when he came back with my order. Wow - these staff must have genes of The Flash because they ALL were in and out in record time! My order came back, showed my licence, and they dropped it on the front seat of the car. I'm a huge fan. The process this year was stellar.

The store doesn't have an exact closing date but it won't be very long. Currently seasonal items are 60-70% off (some seriously cute Xmas décor and ornaments) and the remainder of the store is 20-30% off. They have really cute jewellery and unique items for special gifts. I really like their line of moon necklaces/bracelets where you pick the phase of the moon on a special date (birth, death, wedding, etc.) and can wear it as jewellery. I also like their sparkly Swarovski crystal bracelets, earrings, and necklaces. Some stuff here for sure can be found elsewhere or online for less but that's not the point of a boutique store. It's getting to go somewhere and browse through various collections to find the perfect gift for someone special. If you're a fan of s'well bottles, they still have a fairly good collection of unique ones and at 20% off you're paying a fair price for the designer s'wells. (Note you can get plain jane ones at Costco for $30) but the ones here are GORGEOUS and make me smile. They're collection of wrapping papers and tissues is extensive and are sure to be able to wrap your gift to fit any occasion or theme. Seriously gonna miss the Prettiest Present!

Well I just adore this store!…read more Often you walk into gift shops, and yes, everything is lovely but you just don't really see anything practical; or everything is really expensive, or really niche. But at the Prettiest Present they really have a great variety of really useful gifts! From presents for those pooch peeps, to culinary and kitchen gadgets - as well as neat necessities. Then there are the baby gifts, the seasonal decor for your own abode, a wall of tempting teas and some really unique jewelry. And then the pies de resistance... they have the most fabulous collection of gift bags, gift boxes and paper so that when you find that perfect present you can also wrap it up without having to go to another store! Love it!! Although, I do not remember seeing ribbon or cards, I could be wrong, or maybe that's just asking for the moon. Pro Tip: Make sure to go into the basement! Often you go into a store like this and assume that down the steps is just a small smattering of a few other things. But in this case the basement is the majority of the shop. It is at least 3x larger then the upstairs portion. Happy shopping!
