This is the place to stop if you're into Trollbeads! I had searched to see if there were any local…read moreretailers as I really like to see before purchasing and this came up (relatively close - still a nice day trip). I was blown away when I stopped in at the selection of not only Trollbeads (more on that) but interesting items. There was a huge assortment of antiques, new crafts, cards, books, vintage furnishings - you name it, I think they may have carried it! But, back to the beads - Karen came over and she was just incredible. She clearly knows her Trollbeads and a total newbie like me learned so much from her probably less than an hour, it was amazing. Not to mention the huge selection. And, the really affordable prices on many beads that you just won't find anymore. I found Karen to be so helpful and charming and honest. It was a really nice customer experience and I highly recommend visiting Twice Told Tales for anyone in the area. Plus, the downtown is really nice with an assortment of quirky stores and restaurants (and plenty of parking). It really is a hidden gem!

I bought: - Providence post card - Providence fridge magnet - Seagull sticker - RHODE HARD sticker - Keep immigrants, deport fascists sticker - Rhode Island patch - Scorpion earrings You know you've done good with gift shopping when you want to keep all of the things you bought for yourself. So fun! Super nice employee too, who helped me get a hat off the top shelf & then let me keep my items behind the counter so I could go on a 5 mile walk.

You never know what you'll find, yet you can always count on finding something fabulous. Mary has an extraordinary eye for discovering special goods from all over the world, including things you might otherwise find only in France. I was so pleased to see some of my favorite designers still here from twelve years ago, before I moved away. Candy, cards, socks, blankets, candles, tea towels, wallets, totes, beautiful things to hang and admire, and whimsical--or not-so-whimsical--spiritual and manifestation treasures. They even have motion-activated sound boxes that chirp like birds! Simple Pleasures is exactly what its name promises: a shop filled with discovery, imagination, beauty, and joy.
