"The Best Smelling Card Shop"

The words spoken by so many when they first enter our shop, it's become our slogan. The unintentional result of starting our community in the corner of a flower shop, we have since blossomed into an independent game and hobby shop. Although we have our own space now, we strive to uphold the vibe that was curated alongside our sister business, which happens to include the tranquil aroma of flowers.

A Childhood Dream

Founded in 2024 by Trevor Whalley and a few of his good friends, our shop is a mix of nostalgia, community, and pure love for the hobby. Trevor, a Northern Virginia native born in the 90s, grew up on Pokémon Red and Blue, schoolyard card trades, and endless nights playing video games. What started as a passion became a way of life — and eventually, a place for others to come together and relive the magic.
