“I absolutely love this store! Wayfinder Society is one of those rare places that instantly feels special the moment you step inside. The owners curate the most incredible art and treasures and every corner of the store feels like a tiny adventure.
What makes it even more magical is the owners! Shelby and Chris are genuinely the loveliest people, and you can feel how much heart, intention, and love they pour into this small, hand-curated business. That warmth you experiece when popping in for a visit stays with you long after you leave.
My personal favourite pieces are the tiny “Whispers” Shelby makes herself, they are joyful, whimsical, and full of personality. Such a delight.
If you’re visiting Chester, you have to pop into Wayfinder Society and experience the joy, curiosity, and soul of this beautiful store. It’s a gem!”

“Great store, definitely will be going back and highly recommend! I’ve lived 20 mins away from here for 4 years and just went in for the first time today and the only thing I regret is not going in sooner!”
“From the street, the shop seems too small to have much, BUT when you go in you'll see that the owner Kim has a real skill at curating unique treasures, one of a kind gifts, local balms, soaps, and oils, as well as jewelry at really good prices. Everything is displayed beautifully, and they have fun workshops to focus on improving your health and wellbeing. I've had the privilege of teaching in this facility too -- the workshop space is inviting, intimate with natural light. The vibe of the place is all about positivity around your mental wellness and everyone is welcome. Plus Chester is so cool!”

“Very nice shop tucked on Main Street.The sho you will find something for everyone. The owner takes care and pride in her shop Well worth the effort to get there”
“I love this store because the owner is the artist and maker of most of the jewelry. Beautiful pieces inspired by nature. You can feel she is making her jewelry from the heart. She also carries items created by others but with her eye they must meet her high standards and everything flows together beautifully.
I just love how I feel when I visit her shop and love the vibe they bring to my home.
I have a tissue-box-cover with embroidered feathers that I’m crazy for. I never thought I’d purchase a tissue box cover haha. And I also have naturally-shed deer antlers wrapped in colorful thread. Two friends of mine found some earrings and a necklace, both one-of-a-kind pieces created by Dina and sold no where else. If you are in Chester, don’t skip this store: I’m sure you’ll find something too.”

“It was unfortunate that they sent a different item (I was looking for an older version of the doll) than the one I was looking to purchase, but the team was responsive, friendly, and apologetic. They offered me a discount or a return label without issue. I’m pleased with the customer support service and will continue to support local businesses.”
