It’s hard for me to believe, but the first post I ever did on Relics gift shop was almost ten years ago! You can click here to be transported to the past and read that post.

Deb, who owns and is the master-mind of Relics celebrated the 16th birthday of Relics last Saturday. If you follow this blog, you’ll remember that Saturday I went to the Sound of Peoria’s first year anniversary party. Well, I thought I could buy their gift at Relics, take some photos of Relics in honor of this sweet sixteen anniversary and today I’m posting those photos.

I’m quite the multi-tasker, if I do say so myself and I just did…so there!

Here we are at Relics, one of my favorite places in Peoria. This place has such welcoming and good vibes, it always puts me in a good mood when I visit here.

And there’s more Relics to love now, they also have a wonderful location in East Peoria, here’s a post I did from there last February.

The front windows are always festive: Gifts, Plants, Jewelry, Fun. Who could ask for anything more?

I love that there’s a front door, but that’s not the way you get into the store! It always makes me think of Alice in Wonderland!

To get inside of this fabulous shop, you go to the side door!

And here we are inside the wondrous and magical world of Relics! There’s always so much to see in here!

My mind boggles every single time I visit!

This area over here is dedicated to all things Peoria-centric!

There’s books, t-shirts. cards. art, mugs, hats and other fun items all that have a Peoria twist to them.

There’s so much fun and interesting stuff in here, and it’s items you won’t find anywhere else In Peoria and beyond!

What an interesting and unique inventory at Relics!

They also have plants at Relics and this is such a cool portion of their store. If you’re into plants, you need to check this out!

If you can’t find a unique gift in here, I feel sorry for you!

They also have a great selection of cards as well!

Ava was working behind the counter and helped me out with my gift purchase for Sounds of Peoria. What a beautiful smile and everyone is always so friendly and welcoming here at Relics!

So what did I get Sounds of Peoria for their one year anniversary at Relics 16th year birthday party day?
