I was so excited when I found this place and popped in to look around with my friend. There were so many things I saw that would be perfect for the home that I am building and loved their unique collection of items.
My friend and I were both busy going around the whole store pointing out things we would love to have. At one point I saw a beautiful flower pot that was a little pricy so I took a photo to send it to my partner and see if they liked it enough for me to get it.
Not even a second after I took the photo we hear a voice from the speakers say “no photos”. It startled me and my friend so I turned around to ask the girl working where that came from. She said the owner has a live feed of the store and checks in every now and then.
I can understand wanting to protect your store and be aware of what’s going on there, but the curtness of bluntly announcing “no photos” from the speakers (as though you’re barking orders like I’m a dog and not a potential customer) is not how you foster an environment that leads to people wanting to come back.
Needless to say, I left without buying the pot and likely won’t be going back for any of the items I hoped to purchase.
Update: I came back and met Zina & Laura. Everyone here has such great energy! I feel confident suggesting this shop to everyone because I believe they will treat everyone who comes in with kindness. Everything is priced fairly and we don’t have a lot of money, but the items here are affordable and I feel good about the quality of the pieces I left with. Thank you so much, Zina & Laura!
I have this specific vision of what I want to gift to two of my super special friends. I have looked around my neighborhood and even searched online. I walked in here and I was warmly greeted by Sable. They listened to me, answered all my questions and gave me thoughtful suggestions! And one of their suggestions ended being perfect for what I wanted. I forgot my wallet, but I am coming back ASAP… and going to spend so much money. They have amazing stuff; I was specifically looking for semi-precious gemstones, but they have a ton of art, cards, jewelry and odds and ends. I could spend hours and hours here. Thank you so much for your help, Sable!
