REfind

well yeah, after seeing a little blurb in VitaMN (which is much more tolerable to read than the strib) about REfind, we decided to go on a hunt to find it.
Without more than the street (payne) and a general idea of how to get to Payne (up by Metro State University), we made it.
Totally new hood for us, and we planned on hitting up the Swede Hollow Café in the same trip, (alas, closed).
Cute little shop this.
They just opened, so are still changing things around, but the general theme is re purposed items.
Stuff made from junk. Stuff made from stuff you don’t want or need anymore.
Genius actually. They have ugly dolls. Not the popular cookie cutter ugly dolls.
these are locally made (most items here are) and UGLY. Big lumpy pink lips, crossed eyes, extra lumpy goiters for legs and ears. seriously.
So ugly in fact they are cute.
And to top it all off, merchandised in nothing less than a vintage stroller.
Worth the trek, especially if you are on the hunt for uniques.
