The Quilted Bear

This place is pretty neat. It basically feels like a mid-​to-​high range gift store, but they feature tons of local vendors. About half the store is dedicated to aisle after aisle of local craftspeople, with maybe a 6 foot section for each.
My only complaint is that there aren’t many surprises to be found here. Basically, it’s the same trendy items you’ll find any number of other places (rustic looking signs, big tin letters, framed pithy sayings, intentionally «distressed» looking furniture), but here they’re all bunched together and you can get a little thrill from «buying local.» There seem to be a lot of exhibitors specializing in infant bows, infant shoes, infant bibs, infant photography etc. It’s not my bag, but it may be yours.
I manged to find a couple kid’s books here and a hat for my wife. Nothing incredible, but definitely a great place to stop when the gift-​giving need arises.

A great place to pick up household decorations. They have everything you could want and change the styles out regularly.
My favorite part of the store are all the gorgeous children’s headbands and jewelry! My daughter LOVES coming here and picking out new goodies! Think Pink Bowtique and The Ritz Boutique are my favorites!
