This is a really wonderful store I discovered on Main Street during the Bartow Bloomin Arts Festival. It is located right across the street from the historic courthouse that has been turned into a history museum. The Krazy Kricket was started by Lee Putnam and Susan Blenk who had a love of decorating and repurposing furniture. They started out selling items in a tent before graduating to a space in an antique store. In 2014 they were finally able to open their own store in the spot formerly occupied by the Appleseeds gift store. According to their website they carry mostly new gifts, a sprinkling of antiques, Ce-Ce Caldwells Natural Chalk + clay paint, Spartina, Mud Pie, Haute Baby and a variety of other brands.As soon as I walked into the store I could instantly see it was full of all of the things I love starting with the gorgeous flamingo chair. They had the line of Spartina Florida purses and totes that I adore. They had many beautiful home decor items, candles, funky jewelry, colorful scarfs, clothing, and cool bags. In the back of the store they have machinery that can custom embroider anything you want. You could literally pick up anything in this store and it would make the perfect gift for me. Its a good thing I dont live in Bartow because this store would be seriously damaging to my bank account. If you like girly things and you are in the downtown Bartow area you will definitely want to visit the Krazy Kricket.

They always have a nice selection of item to choose from. Susan, the owner is a great designer and will help you put item together if you bring her a picture.

Gotta LOVE this store. The people here always suggest a great gift, and some they even embroider. Really cool selection of items, you can;t find just anywhere. And we can always find something that my Father-in-law, actually LIKES as a gift - perfect for the hard to please crowd too. Friendly service, great prices. Nice spacious shop.

Being a retired art designer I enjoy the collection of items being displayed but Im most interested in the custom embroidery service that they have available here on Main Street in Bartow, Ill be back there again and again.

Great small business. Had a few shirts embroidered and they all turned out perfectly.

Very nice. Helpful, friendly and priced Right!

They say 7 day return policy....Bought a phone for my dad on sat and took back on sat. They said no refund bc sat is counted as the first day so had to return by friday to be refunded. Are you kidding me!!!! Totally not fare.
