I told her it was my wife and my anniversary and I needed something bronze and some form of pottery. They didn't have bronze but they had copper which is close enough she showed me around the whole store and gave her opinions and what she thought would be a good gift. The younger lady then showed me some of her art which was greeting cards and stuff so I bought one of hers too. Excellent service and great local art and souvenirs. Highly recommend.

I was given a gift card to this place by a good friend. I had never heard of this store, but my…read morefriend knows me well because when I entered last week, I was so happy to see all the different items made by people all around the world. I was able to talk with the manager (or maybe owner) and she told me they work with 400 cooperatives in 59 countries across the world. The first time I went, I didn't buy anything because there were so many different things and I wanted more time to really look at everything. There were household goods, instruments, shoes, blankets, jewelry, art, and so much more. Prices range from low to high, but all are fairly priced to help promote economic development in the countries that send the goods. The second time I went, I took my husband with me. He settled on a Gourd Shaker made in Peru and I purchased earrings made in Kenya. While we were there, we saw a djembe that we will probably go back and get. I highly suggest you stop by. You'll probably find several things you like! Oh, this place is great for finding unique gifts. I'll be a repeat customer.

I discovered this place and checked it out because they offered a 10% discount on Yelp. Anyway, I was looking for a cool Valentine's Day gift (plain old roses and chocolate covered off-season strawberries just don't cut it for me), so I checked this place out. I found a great gift for my lady, as well as a pair of silver earrings for my mother for Mother's Day so that shopping is done :) ! I will need to remember to come back next time I need to find a unique gift and I don't know what to get.

I popped in to get a few of the Tyler Candle Company car air fresheners as stocking stuffers for the women in my life. These are always a hit, and only $2.75 each! Wrapsody is perfectly nestled into the Homewood shopping district. If you can't find parking on the street in front, there is a bigger lot behind. I always applaud gift shops with fragrance items that don't smell so strong that you can't sample sniff individual items. Love Wrapsody!

I'm glad I was able to see what they sell because they do have a lot of items and trinkets and just different things that I can see myself buying for others or even enjoying myself. They were nice enough to offer us a discount when we were in their store learning about their business so I definitely think you should stop. With it being the holiday season, they would be great for some last-minute gifts. I'm sure they have something in there that you'd like.

Ferns are great plants they take minimal care and maintenance and have so many variaties. So too with the Japanese maples. I guess I like low maintenance plants.

My husband and I like to go to the gardens to walk and then stop by the store to look around. The other day, we bought a "hard to find" type of fern and it was reasonably priced. This place is a lot more than a plant shop and you could spend hours just looking at all the interesting things they have for sale. Let me say, however, bring your wallet because they can be pricey. Also be careful if you have kids with you because the shop can be crowded and things can easily be broken. The positives are that the shop layout is beautiful and the decorators took a lot of time to make it visibly appealing to the customers. And, the staff here are friendly and very knowledgeable about plants.

They had several placemat/nameplate things for table settings that I thought were really sharp. I imagine the bread and butter of the sales here is the unique, brightly colored glassware. It's not cheap, but it is gorgeous. I do wonder if a'mano accepts wedding registries. If you're looking for a very fancy gift for somebody with great taste, this is the spot. They even sell mahjong sets. The coffee table books are gorgeous. I'll have to check back after the holidays, I'm curious about what their normal inventory looks like.
