PHAG, Philadelphia Home Art Garden, specializes in art, home décor, and those quirky little knick-knacks that are hard to find anywhere else (see mermen sculptures, naughty how-to books, a “lawn chair” covered in Astroturf, and the “Grow a Boyfriend” kit).

From beautiful serving platters that would make your mom gush, to the sexy Santa-fireman Christmas ornament that will make your friend blush, PHAG is dedicated to pleasing all walks of life. Though the tongue in cheek aspect is always entertaining, there are always surprises waiting inside – especially in the art and garden sections.

The staff is friendly, upbeat, and more up on their Philadelphia know-how than most. PHAG’s unique style goes a step further by offering functional interior design services, so if you fall in love with the store, make sure to inquire.

PHAG is always worth the trip, whether you’ve been once or a hundred times, because there is always something that will make you exclaim “Look at THAT!”
