Late Post Sept 23' This is a really cute souvenir store at…read morethe airport, but after spending so much time at different locations in Alaska I was definitely souvenired out, bought way too much.

I normally have low expectations regarding Airport Gift Shops, and usually only take them seriously…read morewhen I need to buy a gift for a friend or family member. This time, I had some extra time on my hands and decided to do a deeper dive into Twigs at FAI. Of course I ended up focusing on the nice stuff under the "lock and key" displays, some of it running into several hundred dollars. I happily ended up with a more modestly priced walrus ivory Billiken (a mythical good-luck figure who represents "things as they ought to be."). This is a favorite carving figure in Alaska, even though the original idea came from a Missouri art teacher. This time, the gift was for me. The good folks at Twigs wrapped it up nicely for the journey home.

While there is some great stuff in this shop the prices are crazy for being second hand! Some of…read morethe items they priced are not too far off from new prices. A brand new north face winter jacket for $200 or Lululemon jackets for 65$ when the same one online is the same price on sale. My biggest shock was seeing used xenana tops with brand new priced used! They aren't even high end tops $36 for a tank top that's stretched out? Online boutique price for the same top was 25-30$ (some of which on sale due to it being winter and nobody is in tank tops in Alaska right now) Even shoes that were discolored were pricey. I really was excited to see a second hand store but will sadly avoid due to prices.

During our two week trip to Alaska, we stopped into Antler Academy to see the amazing reindeer! I…read morereally had no idea what to expect, other than seeing a few reindeer. Only when the employees were introducing themselves and explaining what was going to happen did I understand that we would actually be petting and feeding the reindeer. Ummm amazing!! This was a pretty cheap activity and the perfect length of time (~30 minutes). My family of 3 was in line about 15 minutes prior to them opening, so we were in the first group to go in for the day. Highly recommend because those reindeer were hungry! Then we walked across the huge parking lot and shopped for Christmas ornaments. Perfect morning!

We went here today, planning to see some reindeer but not really knowing much about this place. For…read more$23, the two of us and our kid got in, and when I say in, I mean we got to go inside the pens with reindeer in them. It was an awesome experience! We got to pet and feed the reindeer, which was a lot of fun, and all for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend this place if you are visiting the Fairbanks area. The only downside is that they don't open until 11, which moved that day's schedule back and made for a long day. Definitely check it out though!

The Spinning Room is like a splendid Easter egg hidden away in a nest of a building. It is located downtown, in the building adjacent to Big Rays, with a simple street sign denoting its upstairs presence. Walk into the seemingly formidable building, and either take the stairs or elevator to the third floor, whereby you will find signs directing you to the shop. The Spinning Room offers a great selection of beads, books and other spinning/beading material. I found an awesome blue-green glass bead that was handmade and available to only a few shops nationwide. I was stoked that it was available in Fairbanks, AK! Marnie, the owner, is very pleasant, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable about diverse beading patterns. One evening, I arrived late and accidentally stayed until 6:10pm (shop closes at 6pm). Marnie never mentioned the time, and was completely sweet and helpful, even offering more time to show us the differences between various stitches, including peyote stitch. In addition to selling beads, the Spinning Room offers beading and spinning classes! A must-visit shop for bead and craft lovers!

I took a good amount of time looking at every corner, because there is a lot of cute stuff. Sandra herself is super nice and helpful! It was my first day in Fairbanks, and I just hopped in to look at all the rings (constant search for spoon rings). She helped me out by letting me know about the area and all the interesting places to shop/eat, as well as good places to view the lights. She even drew me some directions and printed out locations of GPS coordinates! On top of that, I got a lot of cool Alaskan gifts and badass ring (that actually fits my tiny fingers!). Definitely take a look at this shop, you'll get sucked in!
