Homage is a pleasant gift shop among a number of OTHER gift shops such as The Gold Bug and Retreat…read more Fortunately, with the exception of cards, they don't overlap too much in terms of their merchandise. Homage carries a lot of work by independent artists and artisans, including fine jewelry and ceramics. They also have a very large collection of fragrances in the forms of perfumes, room sprays and reed diffusers. The last time I was here was with an out of town friend who was really tempted to buy a handmade pair of gloves. She ended up not getting them and called me regretting her decision. So, this place is great for worn accessories (scarves, jewelry, gloves...etc.) and beautiful housewares. The prices are maybe a bit high, but the quality of the goods is pretty high. So, while I much more rarely buy from Homage than Retreat or Gold Bug, I would still recommend a look around.

I usually don't buy things that aren't practical, but I ended up finding some unique items that make great gifts. The shop can get pretty busy at times, with people buying a lot. I believe they offer discounts with a membership, but when I made my purchase, I didn't have one! They supposed have Jellycat merchandise but maybe I didn't look close enough I only find few and they didn't even look cute . I also spotted a lady with a Zion tote bag on her hand but I didn't see where it's located guess you can find something for anyone . They have great collection here!

We went in intrigued and walked out w bags of adorable stuff we absolutely didn't need but too cute to pass up, obviously!! The staff was super friendly. They take cash, but nothing over a $20 bill. Parking's behind the main street, so you get a nice little walk to prepare yourself for the chaos of cuteness inside. Very, very cool store!!!

There's an almost overwhelming sense of beauty here: lush gardens, quiet corners, and those subtle, lovely scents that seem to follow you as you wander from one space to the next. I went with a friend and we ended up sauntering for hours without even noticing the time pass. It's one of those places that gently slows you down in the best way. I'd recommend going early, as it does get pretty crowded, but once you're inside, there are still plenty of peaceful pockets to find. Already looking forward to coming back.

Ten Thousand Villages is a fair-trade shop that carries merchandise from at least thirty-eight…read morecountries. It is woman-owned and displayed the LBGTQ+ Pride Flag in its window. Here you can find a wide variety of hand-crafted goods. And there is quite a myriad of objects on display. There are a large number of hand-woven bags, rugs and tapestries for use or display (or both). One wall is almost entirely devoted to jewelry. And there's a very large collection of pottery, including bowls, dishes and coffee mugs. This place is an excellent place to shop for those who are intrigued by foreign cultures. And the prices are extremely reasonable. And besides for being reasonable, you can find nice pieces in the under ten dollar range, well into the one hundred and fifty or more. There really is something for any budget. I was greeted when I entered the store and asked if I needed help...but was not asked every five minutes (something that I see as a major plus). Check out was a breeze with the clerk on duty. I will definitely come again.

As one of the oldest independent bookstores in California, it has a really special charm. Inside, there's a wine bar, a coffee shop, and even a cute gift shop upstairs, which makes it easy to spend a lot of time browsing and relaxing. While I was there, I got to listen to an author present her book and answer questions, which added such a unique and memorable touch to the visit. The store was busy, and you could really feel how much people enjoyed being there. The layout is well organized, making it easy to find books by genre. Upstairs, there's a spacious children's section, which is great for families. I also loved the section featuring Orson Welles books and posters. It was a really cool and unexpected addition. Overall, Vroman's is more than just a bookstore as it's an experience. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
