Because of Covid I could not wander around the store (looking forward to that day) and she brought a few options to inside the front of the store.

I got some buildable Pokémon figures the last time I was there. Super cute. Please support smaller businesses like this, so we aren't left with only copy and paste corporate stores in Ventura! Suggestion for the store: I'd love to see Code Geass, Attack on Titan, and Final Fantasy figures added, pretty please.

Downtown Ventura has so many gems, but one that you need to know about is the Seniors Craft Shoppe!…read moreThis has been a special place that my daughter and I go to when she wants to pick out an extra special gift. All of the items in the shop are handmade by local seniors! I just feel that it can't get any more special than that. The shop is also a non-profit, so all of the seniors that sell their items there also volunteer their time to run the store. They are the sweetest, kindest, and most grateful people you will ever meet. I have always been greeted with the warmest smiles, and I leave with so much joy in my heart with the interactions and the opportunity to give back to the community. In an age where so many things are mass produced, this shop is keeping the magic alive by hand crafting lovely items. You can find a gift for any occasion. During the holidays, they also have seasonal items that can add to your home decor. The quality is so beautiful, and one of a kind! Truly such an amazing way to show your loved ones your love by giving them a beautiful, handmade gift. We have found some really special items here for my daughter that we just adore. There are items for every price point, and each piece is so beautiful. You can feel the love and care that the seniors have for their crafts!!! Remember them next time you are looking for a gift! And if you are holiday shopping this season, give them a visit!!!

I understand holidays add extra stress to store vibes, as my first retail job was working at Walmart on Black Friday (with the flu!)... but my goodness, after my last experience I'm done with Michael's. The least these big retailers could do is clean up their floor and display areas, don't you think? A long time ago, I heard a rumor that big business has been trying to shift consumers to strictly online purchases (deterring customers from enjoying an in-store experience).... they seem to be doing a good job with that, so maybe this was not just a rumor? Hmmm, time will tell. From my POV, greed has gotten the best of these big companies, on many levels, and despite flashy commercials and celebrity endorsements, they aren't going to do so well in 2026. We shall see...
