“I have never met anyone as creative,crafty,expressive and amazing as the owner of this shop! She and her family have been creating different forms of artwork and expressive pieces for countless years! I was so excited to find out they opened up their own place! Maureen does not just display her creations but she also gives local enthusiasts a chance for their work to get out there! Wholesome,creative and magical stuff!
10 out of 10
A must recommend!”
“This store is amazing. If you’re even remotely a lover a maps, transit, cities, and railroad, you will struggle to leave without spending an unhealthy chunk of your salary. Totally worth it! You can spend an hour exploring their collection of stuff ?️”
“Absolutely adore this store - it's been such a great addition to downtown Melrose! I popped in the other day to buy a gift for my aunt and was really impressed with the selection. Found something for her (a beautiful candle) and a few smaller things for my kiddos. Will definitely be back as I'm shopping for holiday gifts for friends, family, teachers, etc.”
“This was a great place to host a birthday party. Dani communicated all details prior to the event. During the party, she adapted the painting for the kids and added fun mixed media elements. She was engaged with them for the entire two hours and gave great, clear instructions. Everybody went home with a beautiful finished product and two kids even said it was the best birthday party ever! Thank you so much, Dani.”
“I love Brissonte! The owner Colleen is incredibly kind, talented and has the most unique gift items to which she creates incredible displays for.
I run wreath workshops in her event space. This area is clean, cheery and can hold approximately 20people comfortably to complete a craft. This is a great venue if you are looking to host your own event!”
“Love this gift shop- great staff, great choice and great advice. I’ve been so happy with everything I’ve bought or received from here. Crafty a Yankee is a gem in Lexington!”

“This store is so cute! Davis Sq if my favorite part of Somerville, it's very neighborly and this store encapsulates what I love most about the area! The workers are so nice, going so far as personally picking up some jewelry for me that was out of stock at this location at their sister store as I don't have a car. Will definitely be back, thanks!”

They have a good range of things -- art, pottery, books, cards, jewelry, etc. Lots of locally made products too! I've come many times for a last minute gift and never leave empty-handed.

“Recently my daughter was sick, land I ordered several things from Grandma's Chicken Soup. On the day the order shipped, my daughter was admitted to the hospital - and wouldn't be home for the delivery. I emailed them, and not only did they respond, I received a phone call! They were able to stop the delivery, and will hold it until she gets home - at which time I can have it sent. This was superb, thoughtful Custer Service - totally unexpected, and so very appreciated.”
“I couldn't make the family reunion. I wanted to add something healthy, beautiful and something the kids would really love. Edible Arrangements did just that. Fruit really fresh, mango and kiwi appreciated with all of the fruits and the display captivated all ( especially the kids!). I made order by calling the store ( I am out of state but prefer the human connection to a store instead of on line) "Krista" helped me with order size . I requested an order late on Sunday. Krista noted they closed earlier on Sunday but she would make it the last order of the day. Couldn't be happier with product and service. Definitely order again. Thankyou so much Edible Arrangements!!”
“Arlington has a few stores where you can buy gifts, but Arlington Centered is the one where I want to gift all the things to myself. Its right on Mass Ave across from Kickstand Cafe and is affiliated with Davis squared in Somerville. Expect to pay for a meter if you drive. There's on street parking and the Arlington Center parking lot which always has space. I always buy my sister-in-law earrings here for Christmas, but really I want them. There are funny gifts, trendy gifts, beautiful gifts. Gifts for foodies, grandmas, babies, etc. Hostess gifts, birthday gifts, holiday gifts, white elephant gifts for your yankee swap. I would not come here to buy gifts for a child. There is Henry Bears Park down the street for that. But other than that you could pretty much buy anybody a gift here.”

105 Market St, Lynnfield“Great little spot full of really cool and unique gift ideas, I find myself here often when I'm on Market St. sometimes it's something in the window that draws me in, other times it's just curiosity but this place never seems to disappoint. Worth a visit if you have the time and worth making the time for if you don't.”
“I go there a lot. Nice store -ALL are very friendly but ONE omg!!She’s been there for Atleast a few years , she’s watching you like your going to steal something OMG ,is not pleasant at all . I notice thisWhenever She is there . But yesterday -I just couldn’t believe her attitude . I was waiting to go in dressing room and she comes over just standing there I said. I was waiting to be next . She says well someone is in there . I said yes I know that ?♀️ After trying on a few things iWas attempting to put them back. One item I was able to. But then she took it away ! Iwas putting them back neatly right where I got them- she comes over and abruptly said “No I’ll ll take them “ and slams them down on a nearby little counter/stand. what is her problem ??”
