However, I had such an abysmal experience in Twigs that I felt that it needed to be shared. My besties (all brown girls) and I came in on a rainy Thursday while we were waiting for a table at the nearby Pickle Jar. When we entered this apparently darling shop, there was already a Caucasian customer who was attentively being served and catered to quite meticulously. We roamed around for a little while, discovering all the adorable knick knacks, artworks, and offerings. One of my girls decided to purchase a little plush animal for a friend's baby, and a unique vase. She came to the counter before the customer who was being helped had finished browsing, yet the attendant told her to wait until she had completed her transaction with the Caucasian customer. After ringing said customer up, and while checking out the items for my friend, she didn't make eye contact. She didn't thank her for her purchase, and she didn't tell us to come again. In fact, in retrospect, she didn't attend to us or greet us at all - fairly odd for a small business in a small space. When we left, we felt unwelcome and my friend regretted her purchase. Now every time she looks at that vase, she won't think of the creativity of the Cape Cod artist or how much fun we had on our trip, she'll think about how the attendant made her feel uncomfortable because of her skin color. The woman in the shop should feel ashamed of herself - and not operate a business that is unable to welcome anyone - in spite of their creed, color, or orientation.

The owners are friendly; sometimes they even place free items on the sidewalk. The parking lot is kind of scary- terrifying potholes, some are poorly marked.

This is a fairly new business, and a really good addition to the antiques scene on the upper cape. I plan to become a loyal customer, since the stock seems to turn over pretty briskly.

Lots of funny tongue and cheek gifts. It's a cool place to find interactive gifts like popcorn flights w/ shake toppings, joke gifts, cast iron trinkets. They also sell local souvenirs w/ zip codes and names adorned to towels and stickers. I always bring visitors here and will get pickle flavored sodas for my nieces and nephews to try.

Not only do the members of the staff want to help you, they actually know how to solve virtually any problem that you bring to them. This is one enterprise that Falmouth cannot afford to lose. It is something that we should all support.
