“I love shopping at Adored! They always have a great selection of basic staples but also fun pieces to choose from. Melissa is always so upbeat and helpful in choosing different items. Bonus that they are dog friendly too!!”
“Cute small store. Very nice and informative. Nov. 2021 I visited from Michigan. Made a purchase on a gorgeous round paperweight. Love the city, not the politics. Must see this store. Thank you.”
“We stopped in for some tea and had a great experience finding different teas. They have several herbs and natural remedies as well. They also have a few natural hair and soap products as well as a few gift items. We, and others, were well served by the sales associate. Great local spot for tea and herbs!”

1 Bellis Fair Pkwy Suite 122, Bellingham“These guys are awesome. Sandra worked with me on resizing my wedding rings. Professional. Knew her way around jewels and gold. Had a wonderful experience. And she gave me a very fair price. My husband and I are not big jewelry people but if we need anything in the future Ben Bridge is where we’re coming. Excellent service. Fair prices. And a wide variety of everything.”
“A unique gift store that plays to the funny and sarcastic side of life. Great gifts and trinkets. Card selection is different than a typical Hallmark wall-o-cards. Fun place to explore.”
“Sofie is an excellent craftswoman and the best in town at what she does! Her services have always been so affordable, so quick, and so quality. When I got engaged, we decided to switch out a couple small stones and resize to very specifically fit my finger, which she was very helpful with finding the best size. She got them swapped and sized so quickly! Later, we found the main stone was a little loose based on the sound it made when shaking, and we brought it to Sofie who fixed it and polished it, both surprisingly at no charge! Once we were married, we went to her to fuse my engagement and wedding bands. She again had great turnaround and price, and said to bring it in for her to clean whenever for free. She's kind, to-the-point, and very talented. Will definitely be going to her long-term!”
“If you're looking for vintage beads or unique art, you should definitely stop in and see what they have. Karen is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. This is the best little shop I've found in Bellingham. You'll like it I guarantee it!”

1010 Harris Ave # 102, Bellingham“My fiancé and I first visited the Silvery Moon last August. At the time, we were getting a feel for the type of sapphire we were interested in for my engagement ring. Russ enthusiastically showed us a variety of cuts and colors of sapphires. He was happy to craft any style of ring we wanted and this April he did just that. Russ honors the vision of his customers, guiding them through the process of creating their perfect ring. All around a reputable craftsman and nice guy. Since getting engaged, I have been admiring my ring and am looking forward to working with the Silvery Moon again in the future. Thanks, Russ!”
“After 32 years, my engagement ring lost one of its tiny diamonds. Jewelry Affair did a beautiful job replacing it and matching it, as well as strengthening all of the gold fasteners that are part of the design of the ring. My ring looks like it did the first day I wore it 32 years ago! I am very happy with the restoration, and the shop is fun and interesting to view while waiting. Lovely antiques and estate jewelry for sale. The salespeople are very kind and helpful, as well. I highly recommend this shop and jeweler, and if I need anything in the jewelry world, I will happily do business here again.”
“I found handmade adorable fun pieces from this precious gem of a shop. I was in college at WWU from 1988 to 1990 and swooned over this shop. As a waitress at The Colophon, we used soup bowls made from Good Earth Pottery. I could not afford it but never forgot this adorable shop. Now I fill my home with these pieces. Cups. Mugs. Sculpture. It all feels so personal.It’s Etsy on steroids.The pieces are shipped wrapped so carefully they should moonlight in organ donation or armaments. lol.I love this store. My heart lives in Fairhaven. And as long as I have a few bucks to spend on joy, I will stalk these artisans and dream of this shop.”
“I have been taking broken and mismatched jewelry pieces here for several years and have always had a good experience. Roger, the owner, is very friendly, informative, and fair. I trust him, and I believe he gives the best deals in town when it comes to buying and selling silver and gold items. I recommend him to all of my friends, and I am happy to recommend him to you too!”
“Very cool gift and accessories store in Fairhaven. They have garden and indoor items. Their inspirational books are great too! This is a must stop while on a weekend stroll!”

They have quality and beautiful pieces that are worth the price. You’ll have a difficult time leaving with just one piece, one of a kind piece made just for you.”
“Thank you Bayside for helping me find a replacement for my lost 3ct diamond ? I'm so happy to be able to wear my ring again. I appreciate all the time you gave me finding the perfect stone and your quality of service.”
“Excellent quick service! $25 total because it turns out my watch has 3 batteries, and I opted to change out them all. Took about 4 - 5 minutes. Very happy with the service, and glad that Star Watch is centrally located in the mall, quick, and inexpensive for excellent service!The shop is really fun to look through as well! Lots of nice watches and clocks to choose from, with a variety of price points. There are even 4 of those classic cat clocks with the swinging tails! There are also other collectibles and swords. One of those really nice, quiet, awesome finds! Highly recommend stopping in!”

1 Bellis Fair Pkwy Space 340, Bellingham“I would give 5 stars except for one thing, they should have a warning at the entrance that a lot of their merchandise is inappropriate for kids. A lot of profanity.”
“Bruv This building is an absolute historic beauty. As for the shop, I came here to get some gifts for my mum and the lady in there was very helpful in answering my questions and giving suggestions. Nice place.”

“really friendly folks and good service! my piercer was enthusiastic and informative and helped me find perfect jewelry ! My navel piercing was quick and painless ^_^”
“I was so impressed with this store, and with Molly, and my general experience going in -I have an industrial machine I was trying to figure out some options for how to sell or move it along…Molly was absolutely pleasant in how she dealt with my novice-ness. The atmosphere was social, and pleasant. I didn't feel rushed with my questions, nor did they try to rush me along. It was about the interaction, and felt community based, rather than strictly revenue driven.Their help to me was prioritized on genuinely helping me, rather than sale, or profits.The energy in the store was just a great vibe - instant respect for this business????”
“Stopped in here while on a weekend getaway doing a pawn shop tour of the area. This was the 2nd stop of the weekend and was met with a great selection of jewelry and they had the chain I was looking for. Decided to come back at the end of the day and make an offer. With respectful negotiations I made the purchase and decided to make an offer on another necklace. Fair negotiation again! Would highly recommend you stop in and take a look around! I will stop by again when driving through the area!”
“I feel like this particular store is so overrun with criminal activity DAILY, it's not safe to shop here. there are thieves so thick inside the store, and the employees can't stop them... there are the ones hanging around in the entrance sitting on electric carts, charging their phones... there are some begging as you walk in, then there are the ones in the parking lot that follow you... for only god knows what! I've sent emails to this store manager with NO response... I've personally seen people stealing without consequence, while i am questioned about a return! I've seen an elderly employee get yelled at... I've seen people with big duffle bags just picking and choosing whatever they want and leave. this place is NOT SAFE for single moms who are there after dark... thieves know they can do what they want... AND THEY DO! I wish the manager would address this issue and clean this place up! or maybe the store needs a new manager!! I don't know what its going to take for them to open their eyes and see what's going on, and do something about it!!!”
“I got a collateral loan from here which enabled me to purchase my vehicle and get into a new apt when I needed to. Zach was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating, also knows quite a bit about the guns available in shop.Financially tight, the owner worked with me in extending my payment date an extra few days so I wouldn't lose my stuff. Super nice guys, will work with you in almost any situation, and fair. Wonderful experience here at Checkmate pawn I cannot recommend them enough.”

“I took My Fendi watch in today for its stem was broken. Preet, the owner of the shop, was very friendly and helpful. He explained the process he'd have to go through to fix my watch and he gave me a receipt for it. About an hour later he called to tell me that he fixed it already. I was delighted! He gets right on your project and figures out what needs to be done asap. I was amazed he called so quickly! In the future, I will be going back for all my watch fixing needs and when I need batteries for them too.”
