Owner Robin Curtis and her dressy canine sidekick, Sadie, welcome guests into the cozy, flower-filled storefront of Aroma Garden Creations, where invigorating scents urge browsers to peruse the lace-lined shelves stocked with Robin's homemade soaps and toiletries. Glassware brimming with colorful bath salts send perfumed wafts of air through the boutique's selection of straw hats, jewelry, and wineglass koozies. Signs made from old barn wood depict catty sayings, and a pink claw-foot tub cradles a reclining mannequin, whose relaxed gaze lands on customer favorites such as oatmeal-peppermint soap and aromatic linen sprays. Robin can also ship special orders filled with her private collection of shea crèmes or Grammy's sugar scrubs, crafting perfect gifts for girlfriends in other states or just-out-of-reach bathtubs.

Staffers allow customers to sample every product in-store and provide wells of already-concocted recipes to help spark ideas. Should customers mix a masterpiece, the staff record recipes and keep them on file to recreate at the customer’s bidding.

Pop-out jewelry involves shapes that remain attached to the metal from which they are cut. Wearers simply pop out the shapes and hang them on the enclosed chains or ear hooks to turn them into eye-catching, intricate pendants and earrings (a set of Vines earrings is $36). Melissa Borrell—a self-taught jewelry designer and MFA from Rhode Island School of Design—offers a wide range of pop-out jewelry designs that blur the line between art and design and play with perceptions of space, color, and form, so have fun browsing her wild wares.
