A Few Of My Favorite Things….Wild Ivy Gift Shop, Kuna Idaho

DSCN0001Raindrops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens, these are a few of my favorite things……

I always feel like humming this song when I visit Kim’s shop on the west side of Kuna. If it’s a crummy day(weather or business wise) I just lose myself in this nostalgic boutique.

There is so much to see, and I always walk away with something in a bag or in my next dream project.

Besides tea and cookies daily, there is always something fun going on at the Wild Ivy. Contests and promotions that you can join in, as simple as guessing the number of candy hearts, to giving gifts of warm clothes to children at Christmas time. The prizes are always generous and lots of fun. (I won a $25 gift certificate the first time I entered my name!)

You will not find anything to compare for prices. I find this to be true in most of the downtown Kuna stores. Prices are very reasonable compared to the same item in Meridian or Boise, probably because of the ability to keep the overhead low.

Kim or any of her sales associates are so willing to help you find just the right piece. So if you don’t see want you what, be sure to ask!

It is a little tricky to find the Wild Ivy.If you are traveling west on Main St, instead of staying on that road as it turns south to cross the river,stay on Main, and go straight towards the flag pole and you’ll see it. (291 Ave E)

These are just some of the themes the Wild Ivy carries.

The shabby chic exterior just begs you to explore the inside. This shop has been featured in trade magazines and is one place that you need to visit when you come to Kuna.

I just simply remember my favorite things. and then I don’t feel so bad
