Carol & Company

I was really excited to find this shop near my house. Downtown Barrington is really cute. There are a few shops I like, but wish there were more. Recently, a few new ones have popped up & this is definitely a favorite.
Filled with jewelry & gifts, this shop is also conveniently located in the same plaza as a bakery, Italian restaurant, post office & my dentist’s office.
Lots of different brands & artists. Everything plus more is on their website, and with photos! I like that.
They even gave me a card to write down my personal wishlist, which I gave to someone dear in hopes I would get everything on it.
I fell in love with Grandmother’s Buttons jewelry and a John Wind gold chain bracelet. I also love the Loren Hope jewelry, but wish it was more affordable.
The Bourbon and Bowties bangles made of all different kinds of stones & gems are all one-​of-​a-​kind. Some are actually not even on their website.
There is always a raffle going on & entries are earned with each visit to the store. They raffle off different items all the time. The ladies working at the shop are smiley & friendly. I came in a couple times & talked to one young girl who is really nice & down-​to-​Earth. =)
Just a great place to get gifts for girls, but guys, as well. They have cufflinks made of real baseball stitching & bottle openers made from real MLB bats!
They host events time to time & offer discounts once in awhile via their email subscription.
Definitely will go back when it’s time to make another wishlist for Christmas & when I need a gift for someone.
