DO NOT BUY A GIFT FROM THIS STORE! We were sent a wedding present from MacKenzie-Childs that we did not like. Â The store has other beautiful things, but not to our style. Â The store makes the receiver of a gift pay for shipping on the returns (as in, this gift is now costing me money to return it), and they will not refund the amount of the gift, but will only give store credit (I don't want anything in the store). If you think someone would appreciate a gift from this store, give them cash and tell them to consider this store. Â Otherwise, a gift from MacKenzie-Childs is as likely to delight as it is to frustrate the recipient.
Review Source:I planned to stop at the aurora store around 5:15, only to find out that they closed early due to inclement weather (a tornado watch). The weather turned out to be fine and the other establishments that we visited that afternoon were not closed. Â So if you plan on visiting there - call ahead as they may decide to close for no reason.
Review Source:The tour of mackenzie childs farmhouse is a must and started at 11am. It was filled from top to bottom with furniture, tableware and decor of mackenzie childs. I especially loved the bathrooms and kitchens complete with tiled and drawer pulls. The courtly check room even had a closet shower! That was awesome. Also liked the pink petal bathroom and kitchen. I am sad that the honeymoon pattern is retiring, it looks beautiful. I would however, not decorate my entire house in mackenzie childs. It was a little overkill and by the end I was mackenzie-childed-out. It did however inspire me on which pieces to buy and I left mackenzie childs a happy camper with a beautiful decorative courtly check teapot. The grounds are beautiful and consist of a lake with a gazebo like bench, a goose house and animals (hairy cattle, goose, lamb, peacock, etc) that any child would love. This place was beautifully designed and layed out. Definitely a must see in Aurora!
