  Don't go here if you don't want to be accused of stealing.
  
  Horrible experience at this store. I walked in and browsed for a while, not finding any items I wanted, but that was okay because I attributed this just to my preference in goods. I had gone in with my brother and a few friends, and since neither my brother nor I found anything we wanted, we walked out of the store and sat directly outside of it to wait for our friends. 5 minutes later someone who looks to be either the manager or owner (she was old enough to be the owner) walked out while I was talking on the phone, and asked to both of: "Do you two have a tee-shirt that doesn't belong to you?" My brother and I look at each other confused and replied "No" She continued, "are you sure"?" And then proceeded to say she needed to see what was in my brothers plastic bag (which was from another store) and then turned to me, asking how about you, looking at my pockets (mind you I'm still on the phone at this point and she's completely interrupted my conversation) and I just looked at her and pulled out my pockets and she walked away, while I apologized very loudly to the person with whom I was talking that I didn't hear them because I had just been accused of stealing.
  
  A couple hours later or so, one of the friends who had come to the store with us returned, thinking he'd dropped something in the store and wondered whether the employees had seen anything. The same lady replied to him "No, but your friends stole a tee-shirt."
  
  If I hadn't been on the phone I would've loved to ask her 2 questions:
  
  1. Do you really think that if we stole an item from your store, we'd sit directly outside your store for multiple minutes afterward?
  
  2. Do you honestly think that there are items in your store worth stealing?
  
  One of the worst experiences at any retailer or store of any sort in long time. If I were you, I'd stay away

  Love their selection. Great service. Love being able to go to a store and buy natural Gemstones and Gemstone jewelry.

  Love this place! I stop in a few times a year to purchase my favorite patchouli and dream of all the other lovely things they have to offer. I've gotten a few rad purses here, and it smells amazing inside!

  This is simply the place to come if you are looking for something unique and personal for yourself or someone else. The owners of this store are very helpful and can help make the right purchasing decision when you're unsure. Be sure to check out to check out their Michigan/Kalamazoo stickers!
