  • Cute Store

    I stopped by yesterday and OMG what a cute store with beautiful decor, clothes, spices, snack foods and some cool drink mixers. The Halloween decor is beautiful, needless to say I couldn’t pass up the pretty terracotta carved pumpkin. I highly recommend stopping by this beautiful store on your way thru Humboldt.

  • Wonderful Things!

    Stopped today and got a bit of this and that, all wonderful things!! I love the decor, great selection of candles and gift items. Friendly owner and staff and that building looks as cute as can be inside. Highly recommend stopping by when you pass through Humboldt!
