Have been coming here for years, made friends with the owner. She can sometimes be curt but is…read moreoften busy taking care of things, so it's no biggie to me how her attitude is. In the past, the unique selections and easy atmosphere kept me coming back, but recently I have seen the business has been cut in half (the shop is 1/2 the size!) and is now much, MUCH smaller, tighter and cramped.
The selection is now standard affair that one would find at any boho gift shop, especially along the Hudson. Some candles, some notecards, some souvenirs in cup or card form, some small pillows ... maybe some boho/artsy/indie jewelry. Meh cards along the wall.
I get why they had to slim down and cut back ($$), but all the "trading" aspects of the shop are now gone. Maybe 10% still exists in the form of honey and an artisan candle here and there, or some jewelry, but the furniture, incenses, most artisan soaps and kitchen goods (except some souvenir cups) are all gone. There used to be a giant selection of jewelry, dream catchers, wind chimes - all echoed through the store and welcomed you in. It's now gone. Still, a great little place to stop in but it's now a lite, fat free version of what we had before.
Prices are mid range and parking can be very tricky on busy weekends when tourists are all around, especially in the afternoon.
Again, it's worth checking out, but don't expect any unique goods or anything that's too artisan or a really fun, fun find. Good for candles, matches, pillows, socks, some clothes in the back.
