A fresh new look is underway at Mr. Willy’s!

We’re thrilled to be working with a local artist and friend of the shop, Crystal Mccallister, to give our storefront a fresh new look and a brand-new coat of paint! 🖤 (Thanks, Crystal!)

We ARE still OPEN today while the painting is happening, so don’t let the ladders, drop cloths, or work in progress keep you from stopping in. Come inside and explore all the same dark art, oddities, curiosities, and strange little treasures you know and love!

🐾 Welcome back, Huskies! We’re excited to have everyone back in town and hope you’ll stop in and say hello.

🌽 And don’t forget — Cornfest is next weekend! Be sure to come see us while you’re out enjoying all the festivities. We’ve got plenty of peculiar finds waiting for you!

🖤 Thank you for supporting small businesses, local artists, and our wonderfully weird little shop!

Please stop by The Grove Tavern for some great food and nice cold $6 rum punch (on tap). Grab that drink to go and stroll on over to Downtown DeKalb and visit our vendors, shops and eateries.
