I came back to the store unsure of what to do, and Jeremy and Chloe were amazing.

They weren't just trying to sell me a pen; they genuinely wanted to help me find the right one. If you're looking for a fountain pen in LA, this is the place to go. I'm beyond grateful for the time and patience you both gave me. You literally turned my whole day around. Thank you!

The employees here are friendly, mindful, and helpful. They have great deals in the store as well as online for a lot of cool DIY, seasonal and special occasion needs.

This is the place to come. My description is only a brief list of the Services and products that they offer. Fernanda it's not only knowledgeable, but definitely the pen expert in the building. She kindly and patiently explained to me the differences between length, width, color and materials when it comes to penmanship. I had the pleasure of also utilizing their gift wrapping services, which is also something I highly recommend. They have some wonderful choices in the store, but you can also bring your own, which I definitely did. I love how all the prices are clearly labeled for every item even the smallest of attachments. This let someone immediately know the value of an item and what is required to obtain the goals for a project that someone is pursuing.

We are always curious to see what new finds they have on display. This is one of those local gems that we hope stays in the neighborhood a long, long time. There is always something funny, clever, or creative to explore. Many of their items are unique to the LA area or support local creatives. We've bought countless gifts for family, friends, and let's admit it - ourselves - here. They manage to include a wide variety of housewares, games, books, toys, art and craft supplies, jewelry, decor, and accessories into a cozy shop. There is an assortment of cards for life's many occasions, with creative sentiments and plenty of personality to express what you can't always find the words to communicate. We have spent many happy afternoons just browsing through the aisles and considering what we might want to buy. Upon reaching the register, there is always a friendly face to greet you and offer to wrap your purchases if they are gifts. We love that they take the time to select a combination of ribbon colors with the type of gift and recipient in mind! Thank you Lundeen's for being a bright spot in the city that offers genuine friendly service and real personality, and an opportunity to see and hold things before you buy them - a nice alternative to endless scrolling through online web stores!
