Eden just got a touch more magical with the opening of the Eden Karma Collective at 179 Imlay Street, which softly welcomed visitors on March 17, 2025. I stopped by a few days later on March 21, and I’m beyond excited to share this little slice of local love with you.
If you're drawn to handmade treasures, earthy aesthetics, and that unmistakable Eden charm, prepare to fall head over heels.
🌿 First Impressions
From the moment I arrived, the storefront pulled me in like a gentle tide. A clean, modern sign announces it as a “Local Artisan Store & More”, and the fern logo etched on the window hints at nature’s quiet presence inside. Out front, a simple wooden bench offers a moment of rest—a lovely spot to people-watch along vibrant Imlay Street.
✨ Step Inside
Crossing the threshold, I was met with a warm, light-filled space that immediately felt like home. Timber floors beneath my feet, soft ambient lighting, and shelves thoughtfully curated with handcrafted beauty.
There’s everything from handmade candles and nourishing skincare to essential oils and vibrant artwork. I spotted framed photographs of Eden’s coastline—gentle reminders of the wild beauty that surrounds us. One display, in particular, caught my eye: playful, botanical face masks and “hormonal mask” skincare—clever, honest, and refreshing. Gift sets were nestled nearby, perfect for birthdays, thank-yous, or just-because moments.
🌀 A Space to Wander
To help capture the heart of this beautiful space, I took a 360-degree photo. You’ll see the counter near the entrance, where the team welcomed me with warm smiles and easy conversation, and shelves that wrap like gentle arms around the room, holding locally made treasures. A round table at the centre displays colourful books, cards, and tiny creative surprises.
The artwork on the walls ties everything together—each piece breathing Eden’s spirit into the shop. It’s the kind of place where browsing becomes a form of meditation.

🍦 Don’t Skip the Gelati
One last delight? The gelati. Smooth, fresh, and locally made—truly the cherry on top. I was so enchanted I forgot to take a photo (whoops!), but trust me when I say: this is your new post-shopping ritual.
🌊 A New Local Favourite
Eden Karma Collective isn’t just a shop—it’s a love letter to local makers, slow living, and coastal creativity. Whether you're a regular on Imlay or just passing through, make time to step inside. You might leave with something lovely in your hands—but more than that, you'll carry a little extra joy in your heart.
