She advised us about the box and packing it including with iced gel packs as this is going to sunny Tampa. The shop takes care of the packaging and shipping, Couldn't be easier! I recommend this local shop not just for holiday gifts but any PNW notions you may have during the year.

The prices were very, very reasonable. They do offer layaway which I will have to utilize in the future I'm sure! My only two qualms... lack of signage. There is a sign travelling east on 27th but not travelling west. The sign is hard to read and the font is small. I had to wait a while to be helped in the gift shop. There were other shoppers also. However, once helped the lady at the counter was very nice and rang me up quickly, though she didn't make any mention of apology for me having to wait. I'll definitely be back for the gift shop.

And honestly, seeing everything in person is SO much better. I stopped by to pick up a black Leuchtturm1917 journal and a beautiful Uni pen for my husband's first day at work, and it was so lovely being able to shop locally for things I'd normally have to order online. The selection is wonderful and thoughtfully curated, with a beautiful mix of Japanese stationery favorites and domestic brands alike. Everything feels intentional, and it's genuinely such a treat to browse. Such a gem for stationery enthusiasts! I'll absolutely be back (and probably leave with more than I intended LOL).

I was recommended for it by an acquaintance and I was in the mood to do some incense stick shopping a few weekends ago so I finally paid my first visit there. What a cute place! I love it! There is all kinds of spiritual or metaphysical items and some things that are there just for the sheer fun of it. They did not disappoint in having a good variety of incense and Steve bought an absolutely beautiful reflective Crescent Moon incense holder. It's so beautiful I am almost afraid to use it. They have a great tea and book section and all kinds of candles. But the thing that was a real extra bonus was their chocolate section. They have a small counter in which you can pick chocolates from out of the case. We each bought an espresso chocolate and a coconut chocolate and they were so good! I don't know the back story with the chocolates but it wouldn't surprise me if the owner made them themselves. The chocolates are certainly local for sure and not associated with any large candy company. A really fun and rewarding stop! I will have to make more deliberate points to go here. If nothing else a quick stop for more of those chocolates!
