Review 100 woohoo! I've really been on a chalk paint/vintage/rustic shop visiting spree lately and the Mama's Happy in Independence is one of my favorites! Always so charming and cute with well styled displays of chalk paint furniture and upcycled decor. The prices are very reasonable for a boutiquey kind of shop and I love that it supports this amazing group of hard working mamas who enjoy crafting.I've purchased a distressed craft table, a vintage bookshelf and a re-upholstered chair here. The ladies that run the place are always so nice and truly happy. Annie Sloan chalk paint, waxes, and brushes for sale as well.This is an occasional shop so it's only open about once a month (look on Their website for dates). Their other shops in St Paul, St. Louis Park, and Stillwater are open 7 days a week. Every time I come here there are constantly changing and exciting treasures to look at and find. Many times they offer complimentary wine or refreshing beverage to sip on while you peruse the store- how fun! On my most recent visit they had an open house of the "Makers Cottage" next door- a beautifully custom designed home with several rooms and an inviting deck available to rent for events or overnights or what have you. They also host an annual vintage market at the end of the summer in the backyard/field with many other vendors. Very limited parking in the driveway of the building mostly for loading items into your car. Just plan to park on the street unless you come close to closing time.I absolutely love the creativity and beautiful shop, it's a special place and worth the drive!

This is by far the best occasional shop I have been to. They have a large selection of unique finds and the prices are very reasonable. Many of the items have been "upcycled" and bring a fresh look to used or antique finds. The prices are very reasonable. I have been to many similar shops and traveled far for them, but this one is worth the drive everytime! I was delighted to find out that they opened a store on Grand Ave in Saint Paul. The size of that store is much smaller, but great for quick stop-ins. They also offer furniture painting classes at both locations.
