“I’ve been to this shop twice now. First time was almost by accident and so glad I happened upon it. Second time, I had a friend visiting from Milwaukee. We drove from downtown Chicago to the shop (about 35 mins) and the shop was closed. We inquired in a neighboring shop and long story short, a wonderful neighboring retailer opened the shop until someone could get there to ring up our purchases. It is an amazing shop with great gifts (for others or yourself!) and the retailers in that little strip are second to none!! I will shop here continuously for all my special gifts!! Thanks to the owner and her amazing staff and the friendship of the neighboring shops.”
“I was very impressed by Kathryn and her staff's outstanding customer service, flexibility, and personalized attention, when I had to special order some products. I love the decor and unique items in the store, which make beautiful gifts. I highly recommend Bench492!”
“So cute! A wonderful shop. Lots of cool and fun stuff, friendly staff, and a nice clean. I'll be going back the next chance I get! I've already recommend it to a few friends. Love it”
“There are places you visit, and then there are places that feel like they were created just for your soul. The Gnome Colony is the latter. ✨
Walking through the doors feels like stepping into a tiny enchanted universe filled with whimsy, beauty, sparkle, and love. Every bauble, every beautiful scent, every little treasure seems to have its own bit of magic.
And then there is Michael. What a beautiful human being. He has this extraordinary gift for making women feel special, beautiful, celebrated, and completely safe to simply be themselves. He doesn’t just sell beautiful things — he creates an experience. You leave feeling a little more feminine, a little more joyful, and somehow reminded that you deserve to be adorned and cherished.
The Gnome Colony isn’t just a shop. It’s a little sanctuary of magic. And Michael is the fairy godfather of it all. 💕✨
If you’ve never been, go. Let yourself wander. Let yourself be enchanted. You may walk out with a beautiful bauble, but you’ll leave with something even better — a little more sparkle in your heart.”
“I needed help with something and even though one of the workers just clocked out and was on her way out the door she gladly helped me. It was definitely refreshing to find someone willing to help with a positive attitude when they did not have to.”

“A nice shop with some out-of-the-ordinary merchandise from around the world, most have a benefit to other countries or certain charities from the sale. My wife bought a wool dryer ball and a trivet.”
