What to do and see in Kennebunkport, Maine (ME): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops
It took George H.W. Bush to make Kennebunkport known to most of the country, but New Englanders have enjoyed this quiet coastal Maine town for years. In hot weather, beaches are a major draw, but Kennebunkport's many small boutiques, art galleries and restaurants make a visit fun at any time of year. Inveterate shoppers may want to combine a visit to Kennebunkport with a trip to nearby Kittery, where dozens of outlets and factory stores offer plenty of bargains.

I visited this little gem in the heart of downtown Kennebunkport I can't say enough good things about this shop. I was greeted by happy smiling faces the minute I walked in the door. The owners Nick and Deb we're so welcoming. They had wonderful suggestions on balsamics and oils to try and pair together. I also got some great ideas for recipes!

Reviewed By Rainxiaor - New York City, United States
Among a busy street full of typical tourist shops brimming with stuff you don’t need, this store stands out as a breath of fresh air. Literally, it provides a welcome sense of calm, and oxygen from the many houseplants artfully placed throughout the tiny but thoughtfully arranged shop. The owners are local artists and interior designers themselves. The shop has a variety of beautifully curated and subtlely matching home decor items such as pottery, air plants, artwork, candles, and home fragrances. They also have stylish personal items such as purses and totes, all hand made and local. A lot of the items are nature inspired and hand made - I bought several small pots and airplants in canvas pouches as gifts. Very reasonably priced (vs other design stores and Etsy) and more beautiful than stuff you’d find on Amazon. The staff was helpful in providing advice for keeping the airplants alive and styling tips for the home items. Would definitely recommend this place!
