Not only is it a super cute boutique, but the employees are so incredibly nice! We went into the shop looking for a specific pillow we had bought a little over a year ago, as our puppy ripped it apart a few months ago. The woman working was unable to find the pillow in stock, but exchanged numbers with us for when they were back in stock. Only about 20min later while we were at dinner she texted us to tell us she had found two in storage! She had already closed the shop for the day, but was next door and gladly came back over to the store to get the pillow to us. Not only did she get the pillow for us, she gave it to us for free!! She sympathized with how frustrating it is when puppies rip stuff apart and wanted us to have it at no charge. Thank you SO much! Amazing customer service and amazing store, can’t recommend it enough!

Very cute store and found some great items! Love that there’s a variety and that most items are handmade. Store is actually a lot bigger than it looks and a great place to find unique items and souvenirs from Annapolis. They have another store at the mall but this one seems to have a lot cooler items.Recommend!

Worth a visit! Huge variety of local products and not the tacky craft stuff that you sometimes see at these types of stores. Beautiful artwork to be had!

A great spot to buy locally made goods. I'm here visiting family and wanted to buy something to take back to New Zealand, at Local by Design, I was spoiled for choice.

This is my go-to shop for gifts throughout the year. Local By Design always has a wide selection of beautiful items, from art to jewelry to housewares - even artisanal food and items for pets! It's a fun shopping experience and a great way to support local.

Waited outside main street location to open, about 30 min.When employee arrived to unlock door, I was not greeted w/ "Good morning" or "Thanks for waiting, I'll be right w/ you". What I got was just a stare & a short" You need something?" She left to find parking, which is & always will be A HUGH inconvience for all during the holidays. Once door was open, employee barling spoke to me, made me feel unwelcome. Forunately, I knew exactly what I wanted, made purchase & left. I will NEVER go back.I'm all about shop local/ shop small, but I was totally put off by lack of basic customer service.

Great little place with tons of little nooks that never seems to end. You want local pottery? They have it. You want cute handmade ornaments? They have those too. Do yourself a favor and buy from here and support local.

Great shop for gifts and home decorations, especially if you want to support a local small business and local artists.

Really cool stuff! Fairly priced too. They were very cluttered when they first opened, but have since reduced their inventory.
