On top of all that I was pleasantly surprised to have found a community of creative thinkers and organizers who regularly host events inside the space which give a platform to the incredible talent that this neighborhood has fostered over the years! In the best thing is that they don't take themselves too seriously I am writing this review so that others understand that the owners are kind responsible people prepared to amend and understand any trespass or impasse, just message them on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/awesomebrooklyn?igsh=MTJtNTZ1NXoyZDJ5Mw== @awesomebrooklyn

There isn't any A/C, but the lights are dim, and the staff is incredibly friendly. A Lleuchtturm1917 journal fan myself, I had searched the area for a local store that would be a joy to look around in addition to finding this particular item. This establishment didn't disappoint, and I loved looking around at the various tchotchkes galore, including various cards, beautiful wrapping paper, and assorted Japanese stickers. There's also a glorious wall of pens you can test before purchase in the back. We had a wonderful conversation with the store clerk about dining in the area after our purchase. Honestly, she was such a gem of a human being. This is the side of New York that people love. Highly recommend to all my penmanship, bujo people out there.

Buyer BEWARE These people lie to your face and in their responses and the service in this place is just plain terrible then if you complain they want to involve police just like any other discriminatory party. Then they edit their comments to erase their mention of cops it's just ridiculous Their shirts are overpriced for their cheap fabric and the selection is no better than anywhere else Be careful if you're a POC (other than Asian) or LGBT cause they really don't seem comfortable and will watch you like a hawk. The workers don't even know how to tell if a bill is real or not they accuse you of it being fake tho just to decline you If you need souvenirs from Brooklyn go elsewhere Support the botanical garden or museum but this place is not the place to go if you're looking for good service, a good selection, or value for your hard earned dollars. You can walk them through the checks on it and they still don't believe you they are clearly off I haven't used any defamatory language or disrespect. I walked her through the checks, showed her the real bill and then she agreed it was indeed fake. Before I had decided her disrespect was not tolerable. The shop was acting in a way that is disrespectful and the staff needs training on what a bill looks like. Further who would counterfeit a 10$ bill ? No one that's who. This place is just trying to cover its tracks after being caught being rude. Now they're threatening to involve police for a real bill these people have nothing better to do than to discriminate indiscriminately. I've posted the exact bill. As I said before, I showed them each parameter of the bill and now they're saying I'm false. They're lying. They're now threatening me. Yes I took the bill after I showed her it was fake and decided I didn't want the magnet and pin for less than 10$. The video footage will show my taking it from her hand in my frustration, saying this was incredibly rude, and walking out. There was nothing sketchy on my end at all They saw my bill and decided it was fake. This business now threatens police action when they're the ones in the wrong. Magdalena should be ashamed of herself for this ridiculousness. Let's involve the police if you want ! They'll have the exact bill the review in the photos. These people are deranged and liars. Avoid them! Send the security footage ! It shows how I walked you through how the bill was real before you accepted it ! The only reason I walked out with my REAL bill is because you accused me of something you can't even verify !

This was the first Brooklyn gift shop I went to when I first intentionally looked for a gift shop…read more I was already along cortelyou when I remembered this place existed. I needed some small trinkets for a friend's daughter and they delivered. I appreciate that it delves into different topics despite its small space such as food and related accessories, drink accessories (ex: corkscrews/drinking glasses), clothes and home design. Nine times out of ten I can get a gift for a friend from here that is unique. There are items there that are made by Brooklyn/nyc artists. But depending on when you visit, there are not too many things that are NYC/Brooklyn themed (there was an ash tray, a puzzle sets, magnets, & keychains when I visited off the top of my head). To my knowledge, there is not a website that shows all they have available without visiting but I would recommend looking at their Instagram to see what new things they have plus to see what events they are holding. It is relatively cramped even when you are one of two people perusing the store. Every time I visit, there are new items to look at. This of course means that some items you may have seen previously are gone. But they do have items that you are sure to see when you visit such as Breukelen Rub spices, Mike's hot honey and the street sign magnets that I love (I have multiple). If I am looking for a gift for a friend and I wanted a twist, I would come looking here. Is there a guarantee that I will find what I want? Not necessarily but I will have fun trying

When you walk in you can select the type of jewelry youd like to make. You have a selection of bracelets, necklaces, Keychains and wine charms - all are reasonably priced. They have a range of sterling silver and gold coated jewelry. Even a selection of bracelets that can be cut to size. You get a little tray and put all the charms youd like on your jewelry. The variety of charms is impressive - anything from landmarks to disney characters. Once you have your charms you bring to the ladies and they take some time to assemble and size up and build your jewelry. They do offer repair services. Due to the nature of the business you do have to wait or make appointments but the service is wonderful.

Though in the last two years I just quickly stepped in to view the adorable, glass Christmas ornaments, there's a lot more. It's one of those cozy stores that carry unique gifts such as socks, tumblers, glassware and more. There's even a wall of pet toys and they're adorable. Some items are pricey. The Christmas ornaments are eye catching. Food ornaments seem to be the trend and Wood's Grove carries a wide variety. Of note: I'm all for supporting small businesses however, I tend to shop at more notable stores whose return policy is beyond store credit. I don't know what their return policy is but when I asked an employee about any sales on Small Business Saturday, her response was " we don't do sales". Excuseeeee me. It was just a question! Despite this, I might be inclined to pop in and buy a gift for my cats--if I remember. Giving 4 stars since the merchandise is attractive. **Update** I made a purchase over the weekend. The store's small space made it difficult to navigate throughout. I found out their return policy is actually store credit. Holiday items aren't returnable. Staff not particularly friendly. I just feel lukewarm about this business.
