This store is a little hidden gem in the corner of the San Gabriel valley…read more I needed invitations to an upcoming summer event, and something a little bit snazier and with a personal touch than what you buy at the greeting card stores, but not as ridiculously expensive. (My parents were getting remarried for their anniversary). Thanks to the Yelp reviews I drove to this small store, and was surprised by the quality and atmosphere of Periwinkle. * This place was the best of all worlds for me *: - A truly new shopping discovery, as I do not buy a lot of paper products - Hints of quality vintage material, which I am appreciating as I get older - That sense that I am getting a great deal on stuff that would normally be a LOT more expensive elsewhere. (let me translate that into shopping-speak: Prices are SALE PRICES elsewhere!!!!) - Great personal service by the staff, who were eager to help me make style and color decisions without pushing or up-selling anything my way - Bringing back that childhood joy of watching my own product come together before my eyes, done by my own hands. Like crafts shop, but at an adult, professional level - And did I mention the staff was helpful? I felt more like I was at a friend's house working on a project than at some store with a body minding the counter waiting for the clock to hit quitting time. I kid you not that I felt giddy in the store, and wanted to stay long after closing time to come up with different and new ideas of things to create and add to my parents wedding (and my own home.) When I got my final bill for my sale, I could not believe how much I had saved. It is a bit of a drive, but well worth it. Needless to say my family has been surprised by the quality of the invites, and I am very pleased with my experience. I am looking for any excuse just to go back there and work on something again.

SUPER CUTE STORE…read more If you're looking for kawaii goods and gifts, this is the place to go. Honestly, probably the most inventory for the Anirollz character and plush series outside of when that company vends at anime conventions, so if you love those little guys and it's not con season and you want to see them in person, this is the place to go. They also have a very diverse and cute variety of other franchise goods like Poke'mon (the giant Ditto and bouquet Ditto plushies are super cute and I've only seen them on Korean merch posting accounts), Molang, Sanrio, Koupen-chan, Bellzi plushies, Miffy (probably the most Miffy I've seen outside of the LAX shop and ZillyMonkey to be honest), Chiikawa, Monchichi, and much, much more. There's a good amount of stationery there too and in the back corner they have a discount section. There are also a good number of blind boxes too if you're into that. I think my only qualm, though it does make sense with rising cost of living/economy/end stage capitalism, and increased tariffs were that the prices of certain things were a bit crazy. $23 for a small Halloween Sumikko Gurashi blind box. Not sure if it was out of print but god damn. Not sure if I'd get anything for myself here but if I need a quick kawaii gift stat, this is the place to go.

Basically, this store is your one stop shop for knives, collectibles, Feung Shui products, Bamboo, Bonsai, waterfall fountain, lighting and more! If you're going to visit them be sure you adhere to their "Do Not Touch" strict rule. For the obvious reason. There are two items that I liked the LOTR Anduril sword and Iron Man's Arc Reactor. The store is very organized and spacious. Overall, I had a good experience browsing this store and will definitely come back to buy a souvenir.
