This little shop is such a gem in Gastown. The owners have created a beautiful collection of functional, fun, and cute products for all kinds of needs. The shop is cozy and welcoming I personally love the stationary collection, I usually buy my greeting cards from here. They also have the most adorable selection of baby clothes and unique toys. My personal favorite is the animal portraits, hand painted with expert precision, a beautiful nod to the Wind in the Willows. I’m tempted to ask for my cats to be the subject of the artist’s next painting endeavour. If you are visiting and want to take home a unique gift or souvenir to friends or family stop by here, you’ll knock it out of the park. Same goes for locals looking for a beautiful and meaningful gift.

I love, love, love this little hidden gem. Meadow has a beautiful and eclectic assortment of gifts, clothes, and lifestyle items. Whoever their decorator is, I wish I could hire them! The whole store is decked out in the most classic, simple, whimsical way that makes you want to stay and browse long after you’re really finished looking. The staff here are lovely. The girls are so friendly and helpful and they make you feel like they actually WANT you there(a rare occurrence in Vancouver these days). My favourite thing about this shop is that they carry and promote local, handmade goods. Some of my favourite children’s brands such as Mawdsley Loves and Whistle & Flute can be found here. They frequently get new items in store and are great about updating on their social media platforms. All in all a wonderful shopping experience. Keep up the good work!

Meh… Didn’t see a single clothing item i would wear… They do have a lot of lil sumthings you could find but things that would easily be tossed aside or not really used; so in other words a waste of your money. The only thing I loved were the handmade/unique cards they have. Check it out but don’t expect too much.

HOW adorable is this little spot? I feel like Meadow is never a destination, but always a nice surprise. It’s tucked away on Water St and i’m sad to say, it’s such a tiny spot, that I often forget about it. But without fail, every so often something catches my eye and then it’s a pleasant rendezvous all over again. It’s like Etsy exploded in this place. I say, in the most positive of manners. And whether or not i’m looking for something, I always seem to FIND something here. Sometimes its a new notebook; other times is that colbalt blue leather bag that still haunts me… this place is worth the poke around. Plus, it’s nice to have a spot nearly dedicated to hand-made fare… I love Etsy, but with handmade goods, I want to touch and feel the fabric/make and Meadow allows me just that. Prices are reasonable for what you’re buying. Great spot for cards and giftable knicknacks.

Looking for a unique gift? Or maybe something cute and kitschy for yourself? THIS is the place to find it. I love coming in here and can always find something to fit the bill for gift-giving. It may be a tiny shop, but it’s hard not to spend a LOT of time in here!

OMG this is the cutest shop in Gastown, easily missable ’cause it is so tiny, however, once you’re in it’s a craft heaven. It’s like going to the Make It or any other more modern craft shows, all season round in one shop. There are tons of local artists. Kitsch stuff for kids, adults and the adults who are kids at heart. I am a sucker for anything with a rabbit on it and there were a few rabbit adored items that caught my attention. If you love Etsy, this is an Esty wet dream. Everything is very reasonably priced but you will leave broke ’cause you’ll want everything.

Oh my gosh. I don’t think you can jam anymore well crafted cuteness into this place. Lots of local artists wares on display — greeting cards, jewellery, magnets, clothes, candles, kid stuff, bags, and so on. Go in and treat yourself to some adorable everything. The girls in the shop are super sweet too. Are you catching my sugary drift or what?

Well hello Etsy! That’s what I thought when I first walked into this store. Everywhere I looked, I saw handmade clothes, crafts, jewellery and other trinkets that I have ogled on Etsy but here it was, live in person! I really love how well curated the things are in this store and every other thing I wanted to pick up and buy. Thankfully, I spared my wallet but I know the next time I need to buy a gift or treat myself I’ll be coming here.
