Best soaps Ive ever experienced! I discovered their saffron & cedar while staying at an Airbnb in Oregon. I was so impressed I had to ask the host where I could order it. Their scents are an olfactory fantasy! I prefer more unisex to masculine scents; the saffron & cedar, mahogany, tobacco & bay leaf, gay bar, and lemongrass eucalyptus are phenomenal. In addition, the soaps make you feel incredibly CLEAN, different from shower gels Ive used for years. Highly recommend to anyone wanting quality handmade soaps!
I recently purchased the Valentine’s Day soaps, which were so adorably cute, with a wonderful scent. Glean offers unique, fun, high quality, and thoughtful gifts. If you are looking for a boutique with exceptional customer care, Glean delivers personalized service consistently. I’ve been a long time customer of Glean and am always pleased with my experience.
Glean is an incredible small business. The owner is wonderful and it was always a pleasure visiting their storefront.I didn’t think it was possible, but with their move to online I swear the products have gotten even better!I’m a huge fan of Glean’s bath products — the soap and bath bombs are some of my favorites — and you can always guarantee finding a cool, unique gift made by a local artisan.While you’re at it, be sure to check out their soap of the month club!
As a lover of handmade and locally-created, high-quality goods I was thrilled to find Glean. The soaps and bath bombs are lovingly crafted and come in unique scents that are a treat for the senses. I have given both items as gifts to friends and relatives and to myself! Glean bath bombs have been a self-care god-send during quarantine.
I love Gleans soaps and candles--the scents are amazing and the quality is superb. I recently received a three-month soap subscription and enjoyed the surprise each month. Since then I have gifted a three-month subscription and intend to do so again in the future. Its a great treat for someone special in your life. Dawn, the owner, is a gem too!
The very best soap I have ever used! The fragrance lasts the entire bar and the ingredients are high quality and all natural. Glean soaps are my go-to gifts and my daily luxury.
I just bought a bunch of products from here for the first time and I cant stop smelling all of the soaps and bath bombs. I bought the strawberry goat milk soap and Ohio honey with strawberry seeds and rose clay soap. I cant decide on a favorite bath bomb because they all smell amazing. Im giving most of these as holiday gifts, but Im definitely keeping some of them for myself. My order was ready the next day and pickup was super easy. I will definitely order from here again. Im sad that the store is only online now, since I never got to go to the physical store, but picking my order up at the owners address was super easy and communication was great. Thanks Dawn!
Glean soaps are my favorite! I love the creative, seasonal selections. The scents are amazing and they don’t dry out my skin.
OMG - Love this shop! I have bought bath products, jewelry, and art from Glean and I absolutely LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SHOP!
Glean is an amazing little shop in the Short North. Dawn the owner is fabulous and her handmade products are amazing. This shop supports women and local artists and is eco friendly! It’s a perfect spot to find unique gifts and amazing soap! If you haven’t gone you have to stop in you’ll be glad you did!
If you live in or are visiting Columbus, this is a must see! Located in the Short North Arts District, this unique shop is filled with a delightful variety of handcrafted goodies made by local artists. The owner has done an amazing job at Including some of the most creative vendors in town! Stop by and check out the feel good vibes and support local!! ❤️
The atmosphere is lovely, the owner is a great woman. And her products (all made by her hand) are AMAZING. I have officially switched from lush to Glean and Ive never been happier
All I can say is if you have never stepped into Glean and you have never met Dawn, you sir/maam are missing out in life in the Short North!! Need a unique gift? Glean. Need a hug? Dawn. Need a shower? Soap from Glean. You cannot go wrong walking down the 2-4 steps for your life to be changed for the better!
I loved GLEAN and owner, Dawn, from my first visit. Dawn is a source of goodwill for humanity, and the mission of GLEAN reflects her goodness. GLEAN is a shop featuring repurposed items created by artists, and you are sure to be uplifted by Dawn and all the wonderful pieces available for sale.
This is a lovely locally owned store filled with beautiful & unique hand made goods, many from local artist. It is one of the Businesses in the short north which still has the original charm of the Short North! Definitely worth checking out!
Shop is amazing, eco friendly with hand crafted artisan goods. Dawn is a great shop owner and lovely woman. Great place to find really unique gifts and the soaps are wonderful!
LOVE this charming store. One of my favorites in the Short North. My new go to place for unique and personal gifts.
This is my go to place for amazing items/gifts made from recycled materials. I love this store, and the owner is so friendly, warm and welcoming. Glean is a woman owned, small business with heart.
This place is one of the last independent shops in the once great Short North. Owned by a creative, thoughtful and socially aware woman and selling repurposed and homemade items from local artisans.
I absolutely love this shop! Every time I visit, they have unique new items- it’s never the same experience twice! They feature merch from tons of different local artists who incorporate old items, used items, vintage items and items that you’d think would serve no purpose but what they were originally created for in their pieces. The outcome is an eclectic little shop of wonders. The prices range from a few bucks to... idk, I got an amazing painting for $80. And the variety of items is just as diverse- artwork, terrariums, jewelry, soaps and lotions and a million other things. Basically, you can find unique treasures for anyone in your life for whatever your budget allows. I also love buying from small local stores like this rather than getting some plastic wrapped and sealed junk from Amazon. LOVE Glean!
Great store owned by one of the most conscientious people Ive ever met. Great selection, unique product, and very earth friendly.
What a gem! This little shop is full of fun repurposed items that make great gifts for others and oneself. And all are locally made. The soaps made by the owner are incredible. Love the selection of sents and consistent high quality.
I cannot say enough about the positive experience that is Glean. Everything in the shop reflects an ethos of compassion, creativity, humor, and especially, respect .
Best soap ever. Try tobacco and Bay leaf or Vetyver.
Best soaps, great selection of unique gifts and a warm and inviting atmosphere. Totally recommend it!
Great locally owned spot for gifts crafted by local artisans. including popular soaps!
Visited this lovely store while in Columbus on business. Found some great gifts for the family.
Cool and sustainable shop. My go-to for homemade soaps and candles.
One of the best Ma & Pa shops in the Short North neighborhood. As Bushwhacker Luke says, Get your face in the place!
LOVE the selection here and the owner is fantastic!
I love the products in this store and how thoughtful the owner is when you come in to visit!
Glean is a wonderful store that sells all sorts of items that are made from repurposed materials.
Love Glean! All the products are so unique and cute
Unique items, terrific customer service.
Love this little shop!! Wish they would have been open last time we came in town.
This store sells earth-conscious and locally made items. The proprietor is a female small business owner who is a champion for women, the arts, and small carbon footprints.
Wonderfully unique store that promotes creativity and independent artists
Ohio stuff. My wife loves it.
Such a great place!!
