Cute, cute little shop!…read more My FAVORITE thing about this small shop is the worker doesn't harass you the whole time. (Thank the lord!) I love boutique stores but hate when they follow you around/pressure you to buy. A hello, asked if we need anything, and friendly service on the way out. Service 5/5. Simple yet effective. Select is adorable. Some expensive but they do have quite a few reasonably priced items. I originally went for a journal and really love the selection of everything they had. Fun artsy items. Also seemed to carry alot of smaller business (which I love!) If are looking for cute niche items -this is your place. I will be back! :)

I've shopped in their homegoods section and found a perfect housewarming gift for a dear friend. On my last visit, their collection of handkerchiefs/bandanas and their sunglasses caught my attention. I enjoy that they rotate their mechandise so there's always something new. This is a nice, local business to support. Not only do they have a great selection to peruse, but also have a great customer service. The lady working the register was polite and helpful. Make this your shop to support when you're shopping for a gift for a loved one - or even a treat for yourself.

There's a beautiful selection of rocks and minerals in the front of the store. The huge amethysts and clear crystal stones with wooden bases are simply amazing. There are wonderful photos on the wall and lovely jewelry here too. Lots of pretty books, wooden frames, and lovely vases are in this section as well. To the left of the store is the clothing, kid's toys, and lots of educational games and books. The wall has tons of cute stuffed animals. There are plenty of San Diego themed shirts, mugs, snow globes, and books here. My son loved the collection of toy dinosaurs and books in this area. There's even a small area for the kids. The front of the store has some snacks and drinks. This is a fun store in a really wonderful museum. To find unique items to remember to your visit, a stop at this store is a must!

I had an absolutely lovely experience today at Thread and Seed. I live in the South Park…read moreneighborhood, but this was my first time coming into the store. Upon first entry, the store was clean and well lit, staff were very friendly but not overbearing, and clothes were well displayed. I'm in my early thirties and personally, I struggle SO hard with fashion. I never quite know what looks good on my body, I have no clue what the latest fashion trends are, and I generally feel self conscious about sizing and trying on clothes. Without the help of a stylist or exceptionally kind and fashion forward friend I'd probably always be stuck in the skinny jeans and workout attire life. When I browsed the store, there were a few small pieces that caught my eye and didn't see terribly far outside my comfort zone, so I grabbed those for a fitting room and Ashley, one of the team members, approached me and offered to start me for a room. While I finished my browsing, she guessed a couple of my sizes and added some pieces that she thought I should try. I absolutely LOVE when boutiques do this, as again I struggle so much with fashion and knowing what would look good on me. Ironically she guessed my sizes better than I did, which also helped immensely with the experience. I loved some of the picks that she made, and she also helped get me out of my comfort zone into trying a wide leg pant that didn't make me feel like a box and like I was losing my figure/shape. She checked on me frequently, brought additional sizes as needed, and helped me better understand what clothes flattered my figure and were "in" right now. I left feeling so much more confident about what I had picked up and like I wasn't living a decade behind in my wardrobe. Although the prices of the boutique are a bit higher than you might pay at a chain or big box retailer, the service truly is exceptional and the quality for the clothing seems to be higher. Ashely mentioned their recently opened La Jolla location also offers personal styling services, which definitely is up my alley. I will absolutely return to Thread and Seed and am so grateful for my experience today!

I didn't expect to find any business ( other than the occasional cat cafe ) that helped make them available. I was super impressed to see Purrgatory did. Although there was only one cat there when we arrived ( and she was spoken for ) we still had fun shopping. This will probably be my new "go to" spot when I need cat themed gifts. I did end up adopting elsewhere but that cat is really enjoying the egg yolk treats which seem to be an exclusive to Purrgatory. ( If sold elsewhere, I've sure never seen them. ) The cat loves these.
