A friend and I visited the shop based on the recommendation of a local in the area and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The art and other things for sale were all unique and reflective of the owner Barrett's creativity. Everything felt reasonably priced and Barrett made us feel very welcome. We got to learn about his creative process and felt very lucky for having the chance to meet him. It was hard to choose just one thing to buy with all of the variety. Barrett is an incredibly creative and genuine guy, and this is 100% the shop to visit if you're looking for something one-of-a-kind.
Oh my gosh..Blushing. thanks for the kind words and hope yall have fun with your magical finds!!

There are oddity shops and then there are ODDity shops and then there is BLD. Barrett Liza is a national treasure.

If you appreciate creativity and workmanship you want to be a customer here. BLD converted my old speaker cabinet to a minibar and made me a unique breakfast bar.

I just can’t say enough goods things about BLD Studio in Fairhaven. Barrett is the kind of artist that takes your vision and adds all the flora and fauna needed within your budget and if it goes a little higher, you are so impressed to pay him that plus a huge tip! He is thought provoking, deep and masterful with whimsical charm. Some photos are attached from a few jobs we had him create for our restaurant.
