The inventory for Green With Envy would be what they used if they ever created an encyclopedia of gifts. Jewelry? Check. Painting? Check. Kitchen kitsch? Check. Magnets? Check. Candles? Check, check and more check!
Is any of it terribly useful? Not so check. But it's pretty and lots of it is local. Come on, admit it. You have some folks on your gift list that you just want a generic gift for. Go to Green With Envy and you can go ahead and check them off your list. The sales girls are perfectly happy to let you brows to your hearts content, which is good because there is certainly a lot to look at and not all of it is terribly organized.
I ended up getting a nice woven copper bracelet and depression glass pendent for family gifts and was pleased to things that were truly one of a kind. The BF picked up a scenic Charlotte painting to send to his family out west, and even got it at a tidy discount since the artist was in the store and wanted to motivate a repeat buyer. Score.
Do be warned, as the sign on the wall clearly states, all sales are final.
