The Collective

This store is simply amazing. I discovered this store with a couple of my friends this past weekend, and even as someone who isn’t a plant expert, I was amazed. Even as you’re walking up the porch to the entrance of the store, you’re greeted by the beautiful arrangements of flowers and plants. The store looks like a little house, and you definitely feel very welcomed!
I was so overwhelmed by all the beautiful plants and succulents! The employee was also very helpful since I didn’t know much about plants at all. I spent about a good hour exploring every corner of this store, and I wanted to buy half the store, but I thought I would start small first. I ended up buying a succulent for $ 10 (see picture). In the back corner of the store, they have a sale section of pots and various things for a dollar or two. If you keep going to the back porch, they have a large selection of many succulents and plants that are only $ 4 – 5 each. Some are 3 for $ 10, and they are all simply beautiful.
Because of this store (and my lovely friend who loves plants), I have a new appreciation for plants, and I will definitely be back!

I’m in love with this place! Wow, there is so many goodies in this shop for reasonable prices!
This shop is located at the corner of the parking lot behind Krog Market. There is a lot of flowers on the porch of the shop, giving it a very welcoming vibe. We walked in and immediately smelled floral/​citrus scents. There is dried citrus and pomegranates placed around the shop — giving it a pleasant aroma. Although space is tight here, there is a lot home decorations, clothing, jewelry and all kinds of merchandise to choose from — a great place to do gift shopping if you ever need to!
My favorite part of the shop however, is at the back of the shop, where they sell of their succulents and air plants. I felt like a child in a toy store all over again. There is already potted succulents in tins and containers for as cheap as 10 dollars. If you want to make your own, you can pick out your own plants and choose your own containers. The succulents here are also reasonably priced — offering deals like 3 for $ 10 or 4 for $ 10. There is also a discount corner where you can find discontinued goods for super cheap (less than $ 5 and/​or BOGO). Don’t forget to check out the pack patio for more succulents! I had a great time picking out new plants to decorate my apartment with… You can easily splurged in this store, so be prepared…
I can’t wait to come back to this store!

Thanks to Unilocal,I found this gift shop right on the corner Krog Street Market’s parking lot. And let me say, The Collective is a gem.
*****
ATMOSPHERE/​DÉCOR: Enter via Lake Avenue NE and find the ascending steps that’s completely covered with plants of all sorts.
As one can imagine, the gift shop is loaded with gifts of all sorts, and, being a big dude, I had to be mindful not to break anything. So tread lightly. This biz is also not for the claustrophobic type.
GOODS: Handmade jewelry, vintage plates, dainty scarves — they have it all. For gifts, I decided to purchase a couple hand towels that showed all of Atlanta’s neighborhoods, as well as a wine bottle sleeve.
PRICES: Overall, they’re fair when considering most things there are hand made from local artists.
SERVICE: The owner/​person helping me was the sweetest lady ever. Ideal gifts — I got them.
OVERALL: I would absolutely return. I even may make The Collective my go-​to gift shop.

What a cute little shop! I happened upon this gem after having brunch at Krog Street Market. At first glance I thought it was a residence but turns out its a shop full of art by local artists, antiques, jewelry, and every plant killer’s favorite– succulents! The whole back patio is dedicated to a variety of succulents. It’s a lovely space.
The shop isn’t huge but it is well laid out. I would recommend walking through twice because you will likely miss something the first time around. Great place for gifts for all types of folks and you can feel good about supporting our local artists!

Best place to find a unique gift in Inman Park. Super nice people! I was their first customer in their new location!

This place is a great place to find the perfect one of a kind vintage, antique, or hand made items. In the Spring they are overflowing with great plants and succulents. It’s a tiny place but filled to the brim with small furniture, home furnishings, pillows, candles, vintage Atlanta souvenirs, original artwork, homemade jams and jellies, hand made greeting cards, and much, much, more. Not to mention when you’ve tuckered yourself out shopping, enjoy a draft beer, gourmet ice cream, a french pastry, or a great sit down dinner at the Krog Street Market in the same parking lot.

Not what I was expecting but a cool little shop in Inman Park. Mostly filled with small gifts from local artists but the prices are too high. I did however like the build your own succulents station. This is a place to buy gifts rather than antiques. However with the selection and prices it’s not my favorite co-​op around.
