Truly a magical place that inspired me to travel after I graduated from Saint Mary's College. I am so incredibly happy this local gem is still going strong. Wanda, the owner, is so friendly and highly knowledgeable and she helped me find a ginkgo sushi set that reminded me of one I always wanted back in college. I also purchased several other items including a gorgeous stone Pixiu and an adorable frog netsuke. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for high quality gifts and I'm so happy to have been able to introduce my little sister to Sugi before she starts her own SMC journey. :)

I normally drive out to Japantown because of my obsession with all things Japanese, but found out that this place has everything I would want at a lower price. I decided to get a gift here for a friend's birthday and started talking to someone who worked at the store. She mentioned it was family owned and they have been around for over ten years. It always feels great to support a local business, especially having worked in a small business myself. End of story: my friend loved the gift and I'm definitely coming back. Thanks guys!

We completed our plant shopping, but C (typically) wanted to do a little retail therapy in the gift shop that is part of the nursery. What a cool shop!

One of my favorite finds is an avocado coin purse (still obsessed), and this is also where I sourced items for my first Día de los Muertos ofrenda. Being able to select pieces in person made the entire process feel intentional and deeply personal while honoring loved ones. Most recently, I picked up a ribbon headband for my oldest and avocado keychains for both kiddos. This shop makes it easy to support artisans while finding items that actually carry heart and culture.

Their store is a bit tricky to find and had little parking that I could find. They block the spots in front of the store for employees. Upon arrival, the store reminded me of the toy stores from when I was a kid and it was delightful. The employees quickly helped me return the items. But there was very little interaction afterwards ( which can be good). My little played around in their toy area and I found her some replacement gifts. Overall, it's a nice little store, but it can get really busy and a bit overwhelming. Id recommend visiting on a weekday.
