Grateful Threads Fashion Exchange - Beating the heat and enjoying the air conditioning inside ft. Bob Marley playing in the background - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Placerville, California

This store is so great. There are always interesting things to find, from baskets to dresses and a lovely outdoor section in the summertime. I always find beautiful pieces of furniture in this store. read more

This shop is the real deal. Really like how they pay attention to detail. Everything is quality, weather it's clothing or furniture and priced to sell. If you're a person that likes the top brand clothing and solid wood furniture this is the place to shop. I had a conversation with the owner and she let me know that she has been doing Grateful Threads for over 14 years and has always tried to build relationships with her customers and provide quality merchandise and services at affordable prices. She said when it comes to the clothing, she is really looking at the fabrics and where they are made. When I was shopping, I noticed a lot of USA made stuff (which I like) and great descriptions on the price tag telling you that this is not just a shirt or a pair of pants there's something special about it. It amazed me how much is in the store but it's curated so well that it still had a very open and flowing feel. If you like to shop secondhand and like quality goods, you wanna check this place out. read more

This place is awesome, I always find a few things I can't live without! They are mostly a resale clothing store and have shabby sheik furniture decor, but they're is a variety of everything in there! There very selective on the brands they carry and do buy/trade clothes on Fridays from 11-4pm! Definitely a great addition to our cute little towns quirkiness! read more

We live in Placerville and prefer to shop local. We patronized this shop several times in the last 6 months or so and we've boughten several pieces of furniture from the man who owns the store. He was friendly and helpful and said they moved their shop from San Louis Obispo. However, the next time we visited we were so disappointed that the prices were so much higher. I liked a pair of Lucky jeans that were my size but they were 30 dollars! My friend found a cute blouse and it was 25 dollars, we didn't buy anything. We ended up down the street and bought the same Lucky jeans brand new at TJMaxx for 24.99! Bummer, because the visits before were so fun and we would find affordable treasures. read more

Hands down the best second hand/consignment store. They have a beautiful selection, including put together outfits on display (I love this). There is always something great to find here kk matter when you stop in. I even love the cool furniture pieces! Such helpful and friendly help from the owner and the girls there. read more

Love, love this store. Popped in about a year ago & immediately clicked w/ Sarah the owner. Super friendly & funny! Sarah's eye for fashion & merchandise is spot on along with the reasonable prices make this a go to store. Every visit is a treasure hunt. They also have beautiful furniture pieces her husband Eric brings back to life. read more

This is a wonderful store! Sarah, the owner, has an amazing talent for finding and repurposing gently used fashion and home decor in a way that makes a visit to her store feel like a visit to a fancy boutique, except that you are paying WAY less! Her gift for display is remarkable. Shout out to Lauren too! As an employee, she represents Sarah's vision beautifully. read more

What happened to this once awesome store ‍?! Grateful Threads has been one of my favorite south county shopping destinations for many years, yet my visit today was tremendously disappointing! It looks totally different inside... no jewelry, everything has been painted white and the store is stark and empty feeling . This unique store used to be like a treasure trove of interesting clothing, home decor, one of a kind accessories, shoes and even furniture. I am beyond sad to see how it's changed in just a couple of months since my last visit . If under new ownership, I wish you luck - the changes you've made will lead to the demise of Grateful Threads . read more

The best consignment store I've ever been to! The owner is so cool and so smart. She carries the coolest clothes, furniture pieces, and local jewelry, all very clean and in excellent condition. You'll find plenty of pieces like Free People, Anthropologie, 70's vintage.....and you don't have to hunt through "undesirables." read more

I was in a complete mental meltdown. I got my dress back fot my daughter's wedding 4 days people were the wedding I took it to have it take it in and they. They should have taken out a inch the did it wrong my only hope is trying to get the dress fixed. my friend Michelle took it Sarah and she was incredible and designed something that changed the dress more beautiful Absolutely a top notch place read more

Grateful Threads Fashion Exchange - Kelly the charming bartender - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Placerville, California

The owner is extremely rude and uncaring. I would not recommend bringing anything here to be tailored, especially if it's something important to you. I called her to see if she'd be able to help me with my bridesmaids dress for my sisters wedding. On the phone she said there would be no issues with getting it back to me by June 19th. I told her I had ordered shoes for the dress and could get it to her Monday, the 7th. She said great. I then text her over the weekend reminding her and showing my commitment as she had requested. She then responded to instead drop off the dress off Thursday or Friday... I agreed and waited. Then on Wednesday night, when asking how long it would be until I got it back, she preceded to tell me it would take over a week (which would be past the 19th)... I reminded her it was my dress to be my sisters maid of honor at her wedding on the 19th. Her response, knowing I had already been in a time crunch from the first time I called her, was I should probably find somewhere else to take it, giving me ONE week left.. I then expressed the unfortunate situation I was now in by spending time waiting to give the dress to her (who I thought had cared and had committed to helping me). She then told me I was rude and to go find someone else to take it to. The "Good luck" in her text was a nice touch. How about you read the text messages attached and let me know if you think I was merely someone expressing my concern and confusion by being screwed over in this situation or if I was being "rude" and deserved to be treated this way? If you're going to mix up your clients and be extremely unorganized, the least you can do is be NICE to them and have some decency. Good luck Grateful Threads. read more

Horrible owner. Do NOT come here. Treats customers like they are sheep. Next. Next. Oh sorry your shirt isn't good enough for my store. She's a rude little a hole. Beeen hoping that shop closes for a long time. Hopefully COVID hurt her a bit read more

I alway find something special at this beautiful second hand boutique . Sarah the owner is a wonderful person and a talented seamstress . Sarah's daughter also has her moms flare for fashion and alterations . I brought in a wedding dress that I had got second hand for 20$ . My daughters wedding was in one week and it needed flaws fixed and to be fitted . They worked with us to make the dress fit and look beautiful . They did an amazing job altering the dress at a very reasonable cost . We had the wedding dress in hand in just four days . I could not be more grateful to Grateful Treads . read more

I bought staff in reasonable price. The lady who helped me is really nice. Im happy with all my purchase. I live 4 hours away from pismo and will definitely come back to shop again. read more

I have been shopping at this store since she opened. The last 5 visit her employees have been rude, unprofessional and down right disrespectful. I voiced my opinion to another friend at lunch and she has had the same treatment recently. When the owner is at the store it's completely different vibe. Hope she can find help that cares about her business. read more

Gem in Grover. Adorable items and the staff was friendly but not overbearing. The selection was really good, and I loved their vintage selection. Really appreciate the curation. read more

Nice items but pricier than most consignment and thrift stores. Store employees were NOT wearing masks.

This review is on my purchasing experience. I've never consigned here or had alterations done. I knew from visiting several times before that they would have just what I was looking for. A vintage looking outfit to wear to Hearst Castle Evening tour where the docents dress up and so can guests. I found a beautiful evening kimono with vintage rose design and fringe. Perfect to pair with the fake jewelry I purchased in Morro Bay. I knew the rose kimono was the right one but couldn't talk myself out of a second one that was more contemporary for other occasions. $12 each. Wow. They sell on the internet for $40 or more. Check it out. read more

This is an adorable shop, nicely organized boutique. The sell gently used resale clothing, stunning vintage Gunne Sax dresses, few beautiful furniture pieces ( bench , dressers, tables) gorgeous jewelry , etc. Well worth the stop. read more

Really loved this little shop. I'll be back next trip to Pismo. Located with in 500 ft of a couple different thrift stores. This is not a thrift shop but more like a cute boutique with good quality clothes that are clean, well displayed, fun furniture and in my opinion the prices are very fair. I highly recommend this place. read more

Huge fan of this place! The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because they have weird hours that make it kind of hard to visit them if you work 8-5. It's a mother-daughter owned business (Sara and Meadow) and they are both really sweet and friendly. I took a dress to an alterations place downtown and it was $60 just to have the dress hemmed! Yikes. Thankfully I found out Grateful Threads does alterations and now I take all my clothes there. Meadow does a great job and the price is reasonable! In addition to great alterations services, I have never left this store without buying something. They are constantly getting new stuff and I love their style. One of the best little jewels of Grover for sure :) read more

Sarah was so helpful! I would love to sell through her again! She was fair and fun to work with.

Was there today had my husband's leather jacket repaired she did a wonderful job the atmosphere the store everybody in there so professional just a perfect shop love it love it love it Brenda L. read more

Sara is the owner of Grateful Threads. Her store is a gem in Grover Beach. She tailored some dresses, a sweater, and even a silk shirt for me. Prices were incredible reasonable, service was fast and professional, and she is a master tailor. She mentioned she has over 30 years experience in sewing! I will definitely be bringing all my items that need to be tailored to Grateful Threads. Also, she has expertly stocked her store with beautiful consignment, thrifted, and vintage clothing as well as home decor items. Cannot say enough good things about this store. If you are looking for a tailor or just a cool shopping experience in Grover Beach, look no further! read more

Either the owner or someone affiliated with this store is rude and need to mind her own business. My family and I stopped by the restaurant next door to order take-out. While there, someone from this store poke her head in without mask and yelled across us to talk to the lady who took our order. While waiting for our food out in front of the restaurant, we saw more people without masks from this store enter into the restaurant next door, therefore we decided to cancel our takeout order. While we were heading to our car, a rude woman without mask came out of this store started to yell at my husband about COVID being fake and so on. Just a warning to potential customers, people in this store do not wear masks. read more

The owner has an eye for style. I found a dress there for a wedding I had to go to. But the dress needed something. The owner knew just the perfect belt to go with it. A cute look all for $35!! Lots of great clothing items here. Great customer service too. read more

I came here for a modification on a jumper that I ordered. Sarah was very friendly and she knew exactly what I wanted even though I had a hard time expressing it exactly since i am not a seamstress. She shortened a tie on my jumper and added some clips instead. The clips are already a little loose which is a bummer but they are still functional and I was impressed with how intuitive she was. read more

So I moved to Grover six months ago and have been to this thrift store two times. Not impressed. Anyhow I was at the post office and saw they were selling masks for $10. Went over and purchased one. The mask elastic band was about an inch long. The mask would not stay on my face because the elastic was too short. I came back and told Sarah about the problem and she told me that I should just give it to someone else that it might fit? Like who? A baby? I have a normal sized head. I asked her could she not fix it and put on longer elastic. She told me in a rude tone that there are no refunds. I said again that I don't want a refund, just to have it fixed. And let me add she is sitting at a sewing machine as I'm speaking to her. She responds again there are no returns and that after purchase "she wants nothing to do with it". As if it was a health hazard to touch it and fix it. I left the mask there for her. I'm sure she will put it in another ziploc bag to sell to another sucker. Rudest business owner I've ever encountered. If I weren't such a nice person I would say she's a rude ass bitch. read more

Nice mix of fashions for the young and older. The men's section has staples as well as a bit of trendy. The store is clean and the service was above average. I purchased a vintage shirt which I'm happy with. There is parking on the street or a shared lot in the rear. The dressing rooms are we'll appointed with hooks and a chair. There are other used clothing stores in the area. read more

Grateful Threads Fashion Exchange - Interior - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Placerville, California

I love this store- it has helped me outfit for events with vintage and super cool clothing you would never find anywhere else. They have a unique style that really works, as they buy groovy clothes and pass on the style and saving to us the customers. My daughter shops here (she has a 2 yr old and a newborn) to stay stylish at reasonable prices. Most times, the clothes she takes in to sell, cover the cost of a new outfit. Thanks to Sarah - I am now a bit richer for having taken my "not wanted" clothes to her store for consignment. It is such a fantastic service- she puts my clothes on consignment, no dealing with crazy Craiglist people or giving them away to a charity whom charges poor people to much money. Go here first, you will never have to pay retail again! I always find a new treasure I didn't know I couldn't live without! read more

I thought this was a cute little second hand shop. They carry name brands at a fraction of the cost. They have a furniture and decor section in the back of the store with really cute up cycled pieces in a shabby chic style. read more

I knew when I saw a sewing machine out and in use that I was in a good place. I have found a few cool pieces here and am Grateful that this store is as nice as it is overall. I like it! The "Exchange" aspect of it makes it a plus in that one can bring clothes in and maybe even get a few dollars credit for something else. One of the best aspects of Grateful Threads is that it is not all crammed up like a thrift store or Kmart or Ross. There are cool display outfits. Clothing is arranged loosely on the rack so you aren't having to muscle through to try to see a garment. Gives more of a boutique feel rather than massive amounts of clothes. Truly, a nice improvement to Grover City while still keeping the Grover Beach feeling. A welcoming, non-rushed, peaceful store. read more

Such a lovely collection of items! Plus the sweetest ladies work there! A wonderful way to shop local and sustainable fashion. They have an assortment of different, yet familiar brands that are all beautiful and hand selected to withstand fashion trends. A must stop along the central coast read more

Not just for the girls. My wife took me there to look through the men's section and I ended up finding a great looking pair of lucky brand jeans for just $9! read more

Came here to get my rental suit altered as the sleeves and pants were too long. Sarah went above and beyond to ensure it fit perfectly for our big day. She genuinely helps her customers and makes sure they are happy. I'm glad I came here! I highly recommend for any alteration needs! read more

Love this place! Sarah is so awesome when it comes to showing you around the store and even just for a chat. She did an amazing alteration on one of my maxi dresses that I wanted to turn into a knee-length one and she fixed loose threads on my favorite pair of jeans for only $15 bucks total. Also, she has a good eye for quality apparel and sells such cute pieces at Grateful Threads. read more

Grateful Threads Fashion Exchange - Alteration done by Sarah! Such an amazing job! - Used, Vintage & Consignment Near Me - Placerville, California

Sarah is the best . I brought in a few pairs of jeans and she altered the length for me. They were done perfectly. I tried to bring in a jumper recently for the same alteration but she was out for a few weeks so I was forced to use a different place . BIG MISTAKE, not only my did it cost twice as much , but the new place made the length to short so now my jumper looks ridiculous. I'm so glad she is back. I'll never go to another person in town for my alterations. read more

Good location. Plenty of parking in the back. Small store, clean and organized. Not a lot to look at though. Hippie style, lots of jeans. They carry both men and women. Some purses on the wall. Not a lot of shoes. Must be a hit or miss type place read more
