But since my bank account doesn't carry that many zeros, I made do with a small purchase - a soup and bread bowl (funny, I eat a lot of soup and bread). In hind sight, I should have come back and grabbed two more items to treat myself to, but such is life. Lots of great home decor and gift items too in case you're not in the market for a $3,245 sofa.

This building, on its own, could be a museum. This is a rather large antique store. Actually that…read morecould be an understatement, this place is massive. You think that you are done looking but it just keeps going. Take it from me, start on the top floor and make your way down to the basement. On a hot day, you will thank me for this. Sweat your ass off at the start of it and then end your visit in the basement where you will definitely cool down. I took my time in here because it was really a maze of a place. You cannot guess the correct path her because there is no correct path. Like a typical maze, you will find that some turns take you down a dead end. I came here with nothing in mind to purchase. I just browsed. This place had everything from books to vintage clothes. I took an interest in kitchen items and vintage toys. Or what some would consider to be vintage toys now. I saw so many different items in here that took me down memory lane. I was grasping at nostalgic straws here. I honestly wanted to buy so many things here, but really couldn't justify it. I like this type of treasure hunt. Because it's me finding items that were lost to time in my life. I can purchase some of them, or I can just look at it to unlock that memory in my mind.

Antique Depot is huge--three floors packed with antiques and tons of individual vendor booths…read more There is a little bit of everything, so if you enjoy digging through antiques, collectibles, furniture, and random finds, you could easily spend hours here. One thing to be aware of is the building has a very strong musty smell. If you have allergies or are sensitive to dust or odors, definitely keep that in mind. The biggest downside for me is the customer service at the front. They are not always very friendly or helpful, and they often seem unaware of vendor-specific sales or discounts. If you are interested in buying several items from one vendor and want to ask about a bulk discount, getting someone to contact the vendor can be a hassle. Checkout can also be slow, especially when items need to be wrapped or packaged. That said, the store itself is absolutely worth browsing if you have the time and patience. There are a lot of treasures to find--you just need to go in knowing that the shopping experience can be a little cumbersome once you are ready to buy.

Ellicott City, what a charming and wonderful place. A friend recommended that we check out this…read moreplace in our road tripping journey and this place did not disappoint. As I was packing for our East Coast adventure, I was thinking fall weather clothing: boots, beanies, light jackets.....oh but on our last two days, mother nature said NOPE, I am bringing the heat! It was hot and we were slightly dying, as we passed Sweet Elizabeth Jane, not only was their storefront display soooo cute, but we could feel the AC blasting when we passed by. Seriously, this was the reason why we went in. Not knowing what to expect, I was surprised. The store was two floors, but not only did it have the cute souvenirs and Christmas decor that was visible as we passed by, but it had cute clothes and accessories. What a gem of a store....it was boutique plus, plus!!! This store has my heart. It was hard to narrow down my shopping since I had to be mindful that I had a carry on and personal item to travel back home. I couldn't resist and decided to purchase items and just ship them to myself back home. I bought a shawl/jacket in the most wonderful Olive Green color that is perfect for walking and driving in. I also got the softest scarf. Customer service was top notch. I saw this scarf on display on a mannequin and I asked if it came in different colors and they went to go look since I am not a big fan of the browns in my attire choices. I got a gray/black combo scarf. Since we had cooled down significantly as we were shopping, we got hungry and asked if we could place the items on hold since we didn't want to carry our purchases until the end of our exploration and headed back to the car. I gave them my name, they placed the items on hold and we went to eat. When we came back, the store associate remembered my name and that our items were on hold. She also told me that they have a website with many items for sale from their actual sales floor that could be shipped and proceeded to tell me how the store got started. She wrapped the items with care and off we were. Prices are completely reasonable for a store of this caliber. This store could easily fit into the vibe of Stanford Shopping Center, Santana Row, downtown Carmel, etc.....but I KNOW that this place will blow any rivals strictly due to their fair pricing, storefront size and their unique items. Thank you, thank you for existing!! ::hearts::

After living in the area for years, I always passed by the whimsical exterior. I finally ventured in for the first time and wish I had done so sooner. It not only has the charm and magicalness of walking into a witch's cottage or a fairy garden shop, but is also a time capsule where you can find calendars from 2007 with whimsical fairies that you can still buy today. In other places, I would absolutely be put off by the old merchandise, but in a place like Forget Me Not Factory, it absolutely fits the vibe of the establishment, and I actually really enjoyed finding old things for sale there. It felt like stepping into the past, and I cannot wait to go back. Whether to find new items for my garden or supplies to make my next Ren fair costume.

This place really captured it correctly when it picked its name. You will not forget this place…read moreonce your visit it. You walk in and are transported into many different lands. This place is multi-level and can take quite some time to explore. If you are looking for items for a fairy garden, you will definitely find it here. Honestly, there is so much in here that it can be overstimulating. I know I wandered about this space for quite some time and contemplated buying so many items in here. Everything miniature you can think of is in this space. A lot of the items in here can possibly be used to construct Christmas villages as well. If I remember correctly I was mesmerized by the Ghostbuster items. I just couldn't justify the prices they were asking for some of the items. In short, this place is quirky and definitely worth a stop if you want to grab a unique gift for someone. Or if you have a little one with you that might want to indulge in some make believe.

They always answer my questions and lend a hand when I need help bringing things to my car. They are constantly restocking items and bringing in the newest collections. The prices are great as well. I'm always comparing with other stores, and they offer the best value for the quality. I would definitely recommend this place. One downside is that since many items don't come in boxes, they're not ideal for gifts.

Other things are $50 tshirts with a cute saying on it or similar. I bought three rings here recently, and at $9 a pop, I figured they'd last a little, but knew they weren't the absolute best quality. Wrong. Material from two rings turned my fingers green within three days, without them being subjected to water or anything. Very disappointing and makes me wonder about other products in the store. Staff is hit or miss with friendliness. Teen/Young Adult women.
