They sold quite a few games, toys, puzzles, as well as canvas totes in different styles and sizes, and a few of the lighted bookshelf decor pieces that I've been hearing about the past few years. Their prices were quite good and the space is a lot of fun to browse through, though a bit tight when you have larger groups visiting. All in all, a super cute shop and I'd definitely return!

On the way in, our guide mentioned Karl as being a great spot for vintage finds. After eating lunch at Scoma's and shopping around the touristy spots, I made the trek back to Karl the Store. After walking in I instantly fell in love with this store and pretty much everything in it. I didn't have a ton of time before my ferry ride back to SF, but I knew I wanted to take something home. I saw that they had the Merz b Schwanen t-shirts (the one's Carmy wears in The Bear), and I've considered trying one, but then I saw this vintage volunteer firefighters jacket with chain stitching on the back. I live in SC and had already bought denim jacket earlier that day so I was in no need for another jacket, but knew I wasn't leaving without it. Before I left, I ended up chatting with the owner, Dennis. He shared some stories with me and we geeked out about vintage jackets for a minute which resulted in him insisting I try on the amazing one he was wearing. Next time I'm back in SF for work, I could see myself taking the ferry over solely to go to this store again, shop around, and chat up Dennis again.

Heath Ceramics in Sausalito is a personal favorite of mine: a design focused retail destination…read morefeaturing Heath pottery, decorative homewares, and iconic ceramic tiles. Founded in 1948 by visionary ceramicist Edith Heath, the brand is an icon of California modern design. The items here are undeniably expensive, but the timeless design and constantly updating of color palettes make each piece feel special. In 2003, the company was revitalized by husband-and-wife product design and business team, who thoughtfully reinvented the brand. Heath is a great example of how with a good steward, classic design can be successfully revived and made modern. I find Heath to be a good spot for finding special design focused gifts.

I stopped by today, with my mom, to buy my sister some gifts for her wedding. I loved the new colors I saw - they had some yellow bowls and bulb vases that I was seriously tempted to buy, in addition to the other items. What I didn't love was the lack of customer service. I don't expect or want to be waited on hand and foot, but a simple acknowledgement would have been nice, rather than having multiple employees just watching us the entire time. I ended up purchasing from the seconds section and buying less than anticipated due to the overall vibe. I try to be understanding, and perhaps something was off for them today. Regardless, I was so uncomfortable in the store that I waited outside while our items were gift wrapped.

I wouldn't come back to get that sweater, as much as I loved it. Although if it's still there, I'll get it. I will definitely be back to buy some of their other clothes because they are so perfect for the weather here and at such reasonable prices too!

What makes this destination even better is that there are actually three shops to explore: a women's clothing boutique, a home décor and gift store, and a men's store just across the street. We visit all three because each has its own vibe and great finds. The women's shop has a wonderful selection of hats, dresses, purses, and accessories, while the home décor store is full of unique pieces. The men's store is definitely worth a stop, too. If you enjoy treasure hunting, unique gifts, stylish clothing, or decorating your home without paying retail prices, this is a must-visit. Shopping local while finding something special makes the experience even better. We always look forward to going back!
