They did have lots of plushies, blind boxes, stickers, charms, and cute little doodads, all based on pop culture characters that are unrecognizable to me, with the exception of the famous kitty, Cinnamoroll, and Miffy. They also offer K-beauty products. This would be a good place to buy a gift for a young person.

I stoped by the Fanloli store in the Oakridge mall today to check it out. It's a cute Japanese…read morethemed store with tons of Sanrio items like plushies, school supplies, purse charms, bags, make up and hair accessories. They have a ton of Hello Kitty and friend's items. The store is very organized and items are displayed nicely. I loved all the Hello Kitty and My Melody plushies. Everything is so cute and colorful. I found a nice section of blind boxes. There are so many different ones to pick from. I decided to treat myself and get one. I chose Modusand/Sanrio character blind box. I've not seen this variety before. The one employee, working at that time, was so sweet. We were both reminiscing back to when we were kids and wished we could get anything Hello Kitty themed. Back then, they were hard to find. She helped me at the check out. It was a fast and pleasant experience. I'll definitely be back again soon.

There is parking outside of Moment JapanTown.

I had a specialty vegetable cleaver that I needed repaired and sharpened. It had been used by someone to cut something they shouldn't have and there was a nice chunk missing. I brought it into the store and dropped it off. It was ready in a matter of days and the price was more than reasonable, despite them having to do some extra work to get rid of the chip. What j I appreciate it is that they did the repair in a manner that maintained the integrity of the Knife when they could've just had their way with it. I wouldn't have known the difference. They also have a nice variety of kitchen accessories and I was able to pick up a knife sheath to protect everyone from the now razor Sharp clever. It's nice having a local business that does quality work and took the time to explain my options and what was done. They deserve 6 out on f 5 stars!

The store is a little smaller than I thought (you can see the whole store right when you enter), and the prices were steeper that I thought (ie, tiny enamel pins are $12 and $16!) -- so after such a long drive to get there, I didn't end up buying anything, which is very OFF BRAND of me! Momstera Lounge is at the end of the little downtown, so it was fun to walk around and made the most of our long drive. The store is super cute though, and if I lived closer, I'd probably check out one of their classes.

The presentation of the whole store is laid out beautifully. Every time I come there, I discover a new brand of tarot deck, art or jewelry. That is absolutely stunning. If I had all the money in the world, I would purchase everything because each item has been so carefully selected and curated. My work schedule doesn't allow me to stop by as often as I would like, but I hope to attend some more of the classes or events that they have. For now, I'll settle for taking in the beauty of the location and the pieces in the store.

Whether you're into journaling, planning, or just want a unique gift, Maido is definitely worth stopping into. There was not much stafff around helping, I think only two people and they were both at the cash register, they weren't too talkative and didnt ask if we needed help, but im sure they would have if we asked, we just werent approached. Maybe they were short staffed that day.
