They also have lighting and furniture, plus loads of terrific pieces for the kitchen. Prices are really good, and the owner, James, is terrific. Helpful when that's what you need, but never overbearing or hovering. He's super-responsive and has gone above and beyond for me more than once. Most of the places I source from for projects are out of range for those who can't afford an interior designer, but that's not true of Super Simple -- James has a great selection of affordable, well-designed pieces. I would recommend Super Simple to anyone who has great taste, but a smaller budget.

It would be like using nothing. I looked up their return policy. Refunds will be issued in the original form of payment minus any applicable processing fees. Returned items must be sent with proper postage, packages with postage due will be returned to sender. After receiving, I went back to their website to check the reviews of this item. Guess what? They don't have any reviews so I guess you cannot see if you were buying an insufficient product or not. Lesson learned, I will never order from this company again.

This cute and curated shop was was established in 2019 and mainly focuses on San Francisco-themed items and sells unique tote bags, pins, stationery, greeting cards, mini print vending machines, original artwork, home goods (e.g. scented candles), accessories, etc. This small shop carries items from 100+ brands and independent artists. This shop was quite an unexpected find and it really reminded me of some gift shops in Los Angeles that rent shelf space to independent artists and creators to showcase their work. Overall this is a great gift shop to stop by for anyone who's looking for a one-of-a-kind gift.

I don't always know what I want to buy for someone until I see it, and I really appreciate the ability to browse in person. Our son always buys gifts here for his host families when he travels, and we take all of our SF visitors here too and they always find something great. They have such an eclectic and fun inventory!

There is no signage in the store or on the receipt regarding this policy. We were told we would have to speak with the owner the next day. When we went back the following day, the woman who claimed to be the owner pointed to an outdated, handwritten "HOLIDAY POLICY 2024". I told her that shouldn't apply to this purchase and it's disgraceful to be charging 4X the price and not be willing to refund. I was told that's the price you pay for being able to "touch the items" vs online purchases and she refused to budge on the store credit. DO NOT SHOP HERE! Attached is a photo which discredit's the shop's response and shows both the $76 charge and "outdated holiday return policy".
