Homebody Boutique 449 7th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

"Homebody is like a quirky little museum, and the owner, Kate, is an its incredible curator. If your sense of humor tends towards the offbeat or macabre, and you don't clutch your pearls when you hear a bit of cursing, you will fall in love with this place. If you're a dog person you may never leave, the shop dogs are incredibly sweet and friendly. Ask the UPS guy who gets kiss-attacked every day. There's no place like Homebody, there's no place like Homebody, there's no place like Homebody. Seriously, it's one of a kind."

"If you have a lady in your life who likes gifts... This is a great place to find those things. Especially if she's a bit of an oddball. I come here for these great ceramic necklaces in the shape of a slice of pizza. There are two resident dogs and they are big old sweethearts, too."

"I came here with my girlfriend last week to buy a few gifts for our friends birthday. We had a charming experience and checked out a selection of super funny greeting cards trinkets and a really awesome selection of jewelry. The owner was very friendly, cool and down to earth. I’m thinking this person who left a two star review was being a bit unkind in her feedback imo and I certainly hope she gives them another shot because the store is really awesome! I found a pillow embroidered with flowers that gives me lots of joy and a beautiful bracelet that is Pyrenees dog approved."

"This place has great things! However, on my last visit, I was overcharged for an item (ceramic coasters). When I pointed out the sign of the price vs. what I was charged, the salesperson did not offer to refund the part of the overcharge but told me the sign was a mistake, that she had recently increased its price and had forgotten to update the sign. She also said in passing that she would take the money off a future purchase but how would she even remember me if I ever came back? I think it was just to encourage me to buy something else in the store in that moment. We are all human and make mistakes but it was disappointing that the future discount was the only empathy and resolve I was met with. If you shop here, make sure you check prices with the salesperson because they do not honor items priced incorrectly!"

"Walked in today to return some items (this store is also a Happy Returns spot) but ended up buying a couple of pieces of jewelry. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, walked me through different options catered to what I was looking for but was never pushy. I highly recommend this establishment, it's always a pleasure finding good local small businesses in the neighborhood. The owner's dog is a major plus."
