As painful as it is, I have decided to rate this store two stars since it has, in my opinion, gotten worse over the years. I shopped here for the first time in 2010 and ever since would occasionally bring my out town/country guests for some unique gifts. It used to stock rare items, local artist works and almost guaranteed you'd find something to buy. These days it stocks the same cheap plastic junk sold at numerous other "unique gifts stores". Socks a lot of socks probably almost a third of the store is dedicated to socks lol. In addition the prices have gone through the roof. A lot of the stuff is borderline "as seen on TV" with hand made/artsy items almost none existent. Like I said over the years there seems to be less and less to buy. Plenty of items have been on these shelves for years. In conclusion it's not a terrible store. The atmosphere is great and the selection they sell is pretty wide. However it does feel like it's way way past its prime and totally overpriced. You can get a lot of the same stuff in other gift and card shops for at least a few bucks cheaper. This was likely the last time I ventured out of my way to bring guests to this store. I'll give it another shot a few years later and see if anything changes, but for now it's not worth it.
