Dakota Mercantile

I live in New York but grew up in Micanopy. Every trip home always, ALWAYS includes a trip to Dakota Mercantile. Cards, linens, the best apron I have EVER owned, plus always a fun conversation with Sharon. I don't know this Chelsea person who left the poisonous review, but I can promise you it is a tissue of lies. I have never experienced nor seen anything but welcoming, gracious, fun interactions with the owner. I'll be down again in a week, and guess where one of my first stops will be?!? Cannot wait. I'm out of Tokyo Milk cards and perfume...

One of my favorite shops!!! Absolutely love the ribbon choices. A lovely salmon and pink color ribbons were added to this recent cross stitch project!!

What an incredible little jewel box of a store located off the beaten trail. Well curated, luscious scents and collectibles to make your home more beautiful. I’ve lived all over the United States and this shop could equal stores in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York. I love visiting here and shopping the entire store! Well done and brava to the Owner!

Lovely, and extensive collection of soaps and cards and some very thoughtfully curated clothing

Sharon the owner is incredible and sweet! I go to Micanopy only for her store. She has some fine pieces of jewelry and beautiful things!!

While her store may seem beautiful and inviting, she is not. Also, she orders most items from Faire. Sharon the owner is mean, aggressive, attacking, insulting and less than gracious to her guest. Wait, if your rich or high class then she’s nice. I’ve been verbally attacked by her and her husband multiple times. They own the shop next to me. She complains of the smell of coffee and insults every business owner in our small town. If your so unhappy with all of us, then take yourself elsewhere. We had our festival this last weekend, she was yelling at vendors, yelling at other shop owners. It’s rude, uncalled for and not a fit with the vibe of this town. I wouldn’t normally do this to another owner, I’m sick of her attacks. She scares me. She is angry, mean and can be violent. Don’t support a business that is all about herself. She gives nothing to our community but grief.
Peace

Deeply disappointed!
