2 North St, Salem“Today I dropped in with my 5 year old son for the potion making event around 2pm. I was initially a little worried when we walked in because it seemed to be a little girly, but the staff made him feel like he was a VIP. He had a blast making his potion!!!!! I forgot the staff members name, but she was amazing with my son. He has not stopped talking about making his potion.”

13 Hawkes St, Marblehead“What an amazing shop to visit in Marblehead! I couldn't stop looking at all the colorful pottery as I visited with the personable owner, Joanne. The high quality products are simply beautiful. I had a hard time choosing, but finally decided upon a brightly colored bowl and a gorgeous lantern, The shop allows patrons to paint their own pottery. My next visit to Marblehead will include this hands on experience.”

6 Central St, Salem“We have been to Salem so many times, and somehow I never noticed this incredible shop until this past weekend, and now it is my new very favorite store! It is an absolute wonderland of beauty, and is filled with items to delight those of us with quirky little vintage souls. My whole family loved it so much that we stopped in, shopped, and returned a second time for a few more items when we were leaving. I'm already daydreaming about my next trip there so I can stockpile more whimsical wares!”
“I walked into this shop with thought of getting a crystal for my room at home… Not knowing I would walk out after having a personal awaking and connection to a particular stone…The women there helped me realize what was happening and protected me through the experience. So kind, knowledgable, and comforting! Thank you again for hour guidance.”
“Perfect gem of a shop right in the middle of it all in downtown Salem. Loved all of the original designs that are the perfect blend of coastal and witchy (the ‘Gullwitch’ is my favorite). Everything is hand printed printed in Salem and the sweatshirts are soooooooo comfy. Really love this place for things you can’t find anywhere else in Salem!”

It was a cold and rainy April day and lots of places had already closed but I saw this place had their lights on from a distance. I hopped through the ran and was so happy I did! It was such a quaint place with the friendliest owner and really cute stuff, not just decor but bath and skincare things too!

213 Essex St, Salem“Been coming here since I was about 13! My favorite shop in Salem. The layout has never changed either, it’s so nostalgic and classic. I will always come and look for something fun here. I do however wish they’d bring back the classic black leather journals- I got a new one here every summer when I was growing up. It was a fun salem tradition for me. I looked this year for nostalgic purposes and they didn’t have them anymore. Bummer! But many other great finds including vintage Halloween blow molds!”
“I've had multiple very good experiences here getting prints framed. The owner is always helpful and my framed prints look great. The price seems fair. If you are visiting Gloucester there is a lot of Gloucester "stuff" here you'll probably enjoy. The owner and staff have always been friendly to me. Located in the middle of downtown on Main Street.”
