They sell very cute little things, such as dining ware, snacks, cards, jewelry, towel etc. I enjoyed walking around. I saw a cute bracelet in the store, but I was unsure about it. After I went home, I found out that I really like it. I called them and requested them to set it aside, so I can stop by on the following day to purchase it. The lady who answered the phone was super kind and she place the bracelet I like on hold. When I go to pick up the bracelet, they wrapped it very nicely too. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

Leonora have THE artistic eye for the most beautiful fall foliage. I would say that the florals were the highlight of my wedding, and I still smile looking through photos of all the beautiful flowers from my special day. While I am not well-versed in flowers and plants, Lorie still knew exactly what we wanted each meeting and was able to bring the appropriate vase and plant/flower examples. I think after the second meeting, I decided to "trust the artist and trust the process" and let her exercise her vision within our budget - she definitely delivered above and beyond! When I saw my bouquet and florals, I literally gasped in joy because I loved them so much! While the actual wedding day was a whirlwind, I vividly recalled I would look at the floral details throughout the day and it would bring a smile to my face. I wished I could take alllll the flowers, arrangements, and centerpieces home at the end of the event because I loved them so much. I would highly recommend her services for your events. Stop by the charming shop in Sierra Madre and see for yourself!

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.

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!
