This was an adorable little shop! It was full of all kinds of things, from gifts to clothing to handmade pottery and jewelry! The girl at the front desk was very nice and helpful. The prices were a bit high, but all in all, it was an enjoyable experience!

I love this place! I love vintage and handcrafted goods. I was greeted and spoken to in a courteous manner when entering, but that is where the customer service ended. Associates and vendors ignored us. We browsed and shopped while, but at least the cashier was cool and attentive. Ill continue to visit both locations, especially on First Fridays here in Greensboro. Ill go for the product, not the people.

This a great little boutique/gift shop/themed party paradise right off Elm St. From local artists, designers and business owners you will find NC inspired clothing and jewelry, antiques, vintage clothing and specialty gift items that would be perfect for anyone you are shopping for.

The newest Design Archives Vintage has added a Handmade Emporium stocked with 30 stalls for artists and collectors. In addition to their vintage clothing inventory they also have period reproductions that they rent for special events. Adorable fifties dotted dresses and Flapper fringed sheaths are ready for your party. The mens section is a curated collection that is full of sixties and seventies. I found an old 20s dress that was tattered and torn but was cheap enough that I plan to use parts of it in an upcycled summer dress creation. My friend found a straw fedora and he also purchased a pair of cool short leather boots. Another friend of mine rented a 1960s Peggy dress for a Mad Men party. I believe this dynamic new creation of a vintage and handmade shop in the center of downtown Greensboro will continue to be a big hit. I certainly enjoyed my shopping experience. They are open every day of the week, too. Find them at 342 south elm st greensboro
