Sidestreet Gallery

This place has a huge selection of holiday items, day of the dead, Christmas, Halloween, costumes and more. I was also impressed by the quantity of festive lights and dollhouse miniatures. I really enjoyed their recent display of Amelia Opie art. A fun place to browse full of kitsch and knickknacks and interesting things to look at.

Didn’t get a chance to pop in since they were on vacation while I was there, but through the window it looks like a cute little place. I should call before coming next time. Sorry I missed you guys!

Love this place. Truly unique inventory, and very reasonable prices for the quality of merchandise. It’s really a fun and quirky place, and the owners are very friendly and helpful.

While wandering down the street I was immediately drawn to this place. The ivy-​covered storefront and colorful little things hanging all around on the tree and racks outside made me immediately and irresponsibly cross the street without looking both ways first. «Oooh shiny! Let’s go!» The boyfriend groaned. He knows me well enough to assume that I’d be in here forever. And, well, he was right. But he ended up loving it as much as I did so it’s all good.
I am a knick-​knack person. Trinkets, chotchkies, figurines, baubles. Anything small and whimsical that I can create little scenes with on top of my bookshelves; those are my weaknesses. I try to simplify my life by reducing the amount of «stuff» I accumulate, but these will always be my exception. I just love a good knick-​knack!
This store is knick-​knack heaven. So many little shiny, cute, unusual things to ooh and ahh at. Aside from the little random shelf-​toppers, this store has an abundance of interesting local art, creative jewelry, and an amazing collection of unique holiday decorations. All the Dia de los Muertos embellishments your heart could desire! And as small as the place seems from the outside, it goes on for DAYS inside. Follow the yellow brick road behind the counter and meander through the back of the store to find an insane collection of holiday and seasonal decorations. I love stores like these and I’ll definitely be back whenever I need a good gift… for someone else or for myself. ;)

After walking by this place too many times I made the effort to go in– the Dia De Los Muertos displayed was calling to me. Now I know what I missing– EVERYTHING! This place is small, but packed full of so many awesome little trinkets and wonderful art. Despite the size it took me an hour to get out of there. I didn’t want to miss anything.
Once I decided I could not leave without certain items I braced myself for what I expected to be a major price tag. *braces self* Is that all??? :O You could have knocked me over at how cheap it was and I was so happy! When I got home and re-​added I realized that she had knocked two dollars off the total.
This place rocks!

My boyfriend gets distracted by shiny objects. Thankfully this distraction turned out to be useful and fun. We were passing by and he ducked into this shop when he saw some paintings on the wall and lawn ornaments displayed just inside.
Inside proved to be a treasure trove of oddities and amusements. Lots of characters and figurines that look like they would fit into a Tim Burton movie. Funky jewelry, interesting art, unique light garlands (see photo) and toys.
The prices are really reasonable. Everytime I went to check the price on something it was always lower than my guess.
I’ll definitely keep coming back here to purchase various presents for other people and maybe a trinket or two for myself.
Shiny objects indeed.

I’d hate to give up secrets, and have everyone else snatch up all the rad stuff, but the people there are really nice and they have incredible things for sale. Check it out!

Bought the BEST HAT EVER from this place, as well as a few playthings for my kiddos. Wonderful, interesting art, a fun selection of First Friday shows, and inspirational doo-​dads. Me gusta mucho.
