More a colorful, kitschy, free-for-all lifestyle shop than a clear-cut vision for home, the artistic slant of Hanger 18 makes for a fun browsing experience. 
Like we mentioned about our visit here before the holidays, we walked away with some great things: a Kobo soy candle and a sweet ceramic jewelry dish (the only one if its kind in the store).
The shop's full of bright kitchenwares and many surprises around each turn: jewelry, trinkets, kids' toys, artful objects, kitchen utensils, aprons, wall hangings...

We read one brief, dazzling review of Hanger 18 in our Kobo candle post. Are there any more out there?

picked up a christmas gift from Hangar 18. very nice staff, well decorated, great items. prices seemed reasonable. very cool store that i will definately go back to.
it's my favorite store! i live across the country, but everytime i'm in chicago, i shop there. the sales people are so sweet, fun, creative place to be. prices are great and you can find gifts for all ages! open a west coast location!!!
This store rules! The owner has great taste in what she chooses to have in her store. She has a great staff that works for her, they are very helpful! Her stuff is very reasonable.
I think the shop is just perfect and the gifts are one of a kind.you will not find them anywhere else,so if you are looking for different shop HANGER 18 I love the candles and the baby items are the best.
