It's an eclectic selection of new and vintage items, and ranges from local artists and makers to smaller American and European companies. I've purchased everything from temporary tattoos, to jewelry, to dish towels (from a company that hires and supports new immigrants), to blown glass, to an entryway mat, to a beautiful recycled glass vase from a 80+ year old Polish company. I highly recommend checking it out - and then popping next door to Palm & Boy for a coffee, yummy açaí bowl or delish gluten-free, vegan pastry. You can't go wrong!

I received a 20 minute reading as well from the guest Psychic, Tamara and she was absolutely phenomenal. The real deal! This shop is full of so much healing energy and peaceful energy. On top of that, they have very clear moral values and support the right things. Love to see that with a business! Last but not least, the pricing was extremely fair and the employee wrapped everything so carefully for us. Wish we were local to Ojai, because we'd be here every week! Hope to visit again in the future.

I have done two different pottery sessions here and each time, the staff are amazing but the owner…read moreis so rude. She berated a staff member because he told my son he would help save his pottery since there was a chance it wouldn't make it. Each session would have been such a nice experience if it wasnt for her. Also, they dont tell you that if you choose to glaze your own pottery, you have to let a staff member do one of them, so if you only have 2 pieces and you pay $30 to finish both, you technically only are able to do one yourself. Also, my first session, my pottery was smoothed out but this last session, it wasnt so im not able to drink out of the mugs I made. $200 average for one session for 2 which includes 4 final pieces.

This particular shop, not crazy big but does pack a whole lot of punch to it. Right when you walk in, it's two stories. Majority of the retail is downstairs. A cute home decors space with amazing artworks hanging throughout. Downstairs in the main showroom as well as upstairs. Upstairs was more of a gallery in a sense. There's loads of home decors as one would imagine with a place like this. The selections of dish ware, beautiful glassware, amazing hat sections as well as a wide array of jewelry. There's so much to look at. In the back of the store was also another little shop that's a florist with both some fresh cut flowers and dried flowers. Loads of little trinkets, a whole displays of candles as well as some stationary. Not sure if the furniture is part of the display or if they're retail. Either or, another cute spot.

Tala Design was one of these spots, an attractive shop selling furniture and curated home goods, as well jewelry and miscellaneous knick knacks. The store was pretty and pleasant to browse, with an easy layout and plenty of handsome merchandise. I wasn't planning to buy anything, but I found a dish of cool rings fashioned from vintage spoons, made by a woman in Ojai. One of them fit just right, and I liked that it was one of a kind. My husband bought it for me for the reasonable price of $37. I gather Tala offers interior design services, and the shop serves as a showroom as well as a retail store. I wasn't looking for that, but the place was certainly good advertising for design work. Check it out if you're walking around downtown Ojai. You might even find something to take home.

A bit of shabby chic meets Asian Bali inspired. It might be somewhat of a spiritual type of store. Is it a reoccurring theme as every store you walk into along the main strip all carries some sort of dish ware. They're all very beautiful. Regardless if it's solid color or a beautiful print. They're all amazing. Loads of spiritual books, beautiful effortless pieces of clothing. Beautiful hand made pieces from all over Asia. There were some artwork on the wall but the main attraction was the massive red door leaning against one wall. Not sure if it's for sale but it was incredible. There some pieces of furniture on display as well but that could just be for show. The store has a nice calm feel when you walk in and browse through. Beautiful items on displays throughout the store.

A Truly Exceptional Family-Owned Framing Shop…read more Gonzalez Framing is one of those rare family-owned businesses where you walk in as a customer and walk out feeling like part of their family. From the moment we arrived, they took the time to walk us through every option, explain the details, and make sure we felt confident in every decision. We brought in a very old, delicate map that we were honestly nervous to hand over to anyone. They immediately put us at ease. Their knowledge, equipment, and genuine care made it clear the map was in the right hands. It had some damage, and they went above and beyond, color matching and restoring it so beautifully that once it was framed, you'd never know anything had been wrong. We also had several older, sentimental paintings framed, and they treated each piece with the same level of respect and attention. The results were stunning. They remembered us, remembered our pieces, and made the whole experience feel personal. Everything was finished on time, the craftsmanship was outstanding, and the care they put into their work is something we'll treasure for the rest of our lives. I would highly recommend Gonzalez Framing to anyone who wants their art handled with skill, heart, and true professionalism.
