“Love this shop. Rotating collection from local vintage sellers. The new clothing space is great and I appreciated the vendors who listed the items measurements on the tags. The owner is super responsive to questions online too!”
“Cute vintage items and lots of unique new stuff like scented soaps.postcard, flowers, rugs, dishes.
Fun place to shop. I love their soap and body butters.”
“Petals & Moss is so lucky to be under the ownership and creative direction of Shawntel Noel, self-taught plant enthusiast! The shop has a fresh new vision and I am excited to see how P&M grows under her leadership. I also have a feeling I will be acquiring more plants, pots, etc.!!!”
“Favorite vintage store in DSM and they are so nice there. They usually buy my vintage stuff for great prices and also have a sweet selection of items! I'm from DSM and live in NYC and it's really a better store than most I've seen in NYC!!”
“Very cool place to shop if you appreciate sustainability and very friendly people. Vintage Levi’s paired with an amazing sweater, yes please. Awesome vibe and great selection.”
“Interesting store in an old factory or depot. Lots of neat stuff, prices were not unreasonable, staff was friendly. The floors are very uneven, probably due to the age of the building and it's original function, so anyone with mobility issues will have to be extra careful, but overall we liked it and will go back.”
“The staff is extremely knowledgeable and kind and the selection is great. Not to mention the prices are very fair and reasonable. They will continue to receive my business.”
“The owner is my type of lady! She knows her stuff and is an awesome person to just chat with! Her intelligence and kindness is refreshing in this ever cold and uncaring world. Not to mention the one of a kind and totally iconic items she is selling. Handpicked with love....you can tell.”
“Beautifully curated store bringing new life to vintage treasures. Owner and associates all possess a true love for their finds and how to appreciate them in new ways within your home. Great corner location in a thriving East Village district. Must stop during your time in Des Moines!”
“ARC was a humbling experience. Did it Florida in 2004. It changed the trajectory of my life. I'm a much better person today. I thank God For the Salvation Army.”
“I've had pretty good hauls from here. Selection is pretty large, and the store is well organized; not too cluttered but doesn't feel empty either. Also fantastic drop off system. One of the easiest places to donate in the Des Moines metro.”
“It doesn't matter when I go, I always find something worth the trip. I've loved this store since the first time I walked in .. I hope to pick up more lucky finds the next time. .. ???
To the Staff: Thanks for being way awesome enough to work there. People come & people go, remember that you make the difference. Even if some people can't or won't see all that you do, smile & let it go.

“Great collection of antique items that are in exceptional condition and fairly priced. Friendly store staff that give great recommendations. It's surprisingly larger than I expected inside the store.”
