One of my favorite stops when I'm in Ojai is The Lennon Closet, a sweet little consignment shop…read moretucked inside The Arcade Plaza, right between Matilija St and E. Ojai Ave. It's the kind of place that instantly feels welcoming--you're always greeted with a smile, and even if you don't find something that day, the browsing itself feels like a small joy. That said, I always seem to find something! I still wear a cozy sweater I picked up there last year, and on my last visit, I found a pair of earrings that I absolutely love. The prices are reasonable and the items are in great condition. Since they're a consignment shop, they do accept items for resale--you get a percentage back when your item sells. If you're thinking about bringing something in, it's best to call ahead to check their process and which days they're accepting items. One more reason to love The Lennon Closet? A percentage of their sales goes toward Traumatic Brain Injury charities, making every treasure you find there even more meaningful. It's a win-win--shopping with joy, supporting a great cause, and finding pieces that feel like they were meant just for you.

She berated a staff member because he told my son he would help save his pottery since there was a chance it wouldn't make it. Each session would have been such a nice experience if it wasnt for her. Also, they dont tell you that if you choose to glaze your own pottery, you have to let a staff member do one of them, so if you only have 2 pieces and you pay $30 to finish both, you technically only are able to do one yourself. Also, my first session, my pottery was smoothed out but this last session, it wasnt so im not able to drink out of the mugs I made. $200 average for one session for 2 which includes 4 final pieces.

The lady that works behind the counter was so sweet and nice, she makes hand made items they sell in the store, too, we got one of them. Cute store to check out, next door to the Mission!
