"An amazingly chic, unique, charming, one-of-a-kind gift shop located in the heart of Crestline! Every item in this shop is specially note-worthy; you'll want to see everything, touch everything, then take everything home! From gorgeous antiques to fun gifts, and everything in between- it's like a small excellently curated museum where all the items can be purchased!!! And the owners are extremely friendly, have great taste and will assist you in finding the perfect gift for children, the person who's impossible to shop for, and even something extraordinary for yourself (like the beautiful jewelry, handbags, or humorous hand-towels, keychains...) Really there is something for EVERYONE here! Add it to your 'Must-visit' list!"
