What a cute gift shop! I had gone to this place while in the city of Ventura. We were camping…read moreabout 30 min away. We on Main St. to go thrifting. One of the gals mentioned they knew the owner of the place that we should check out the store and see if the owner was in town. While waiting for the owner we took a look around and found some cute, fun and funny things! They had a Christmas tree decorated with camping themed merchandise which of course caught our attention. They had a little bit of everything for almost everyone and any age. Well, maybe not for infants at least i don't recall seeing anything for infants. The found the prices on some of the merchandise to be reasonable. Some of the clothing were on the pricey side. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Although I didn't purchase the really cute, and funny kitchen towels, I did purchase a couple of stickers (I enjoy stickers!). This business will find me here again if ever in the area.

They've always done a good job of creating small vignettes to show off different themes. This being Ventura, they definitely carry a lot of beach-themed items. One area that caught my eye this time was a section with camping / get outdoors / celebrating the National Parks merchandise. Some very cute and unique stuff to be had in that section. I found something for my aunt to make as a gift. She's making a goal to get around to all of the National Parks, and is steadily chipping away at it. What I got will help memorialize that in a whimsical way. The ladies who work the store are friendly and helpful, which makes the shopping experience even more delightful. Take your sense of humor in when you visit - you never know what you'll find to make you smile and even laugh out loud.

They make it with marshmallows and it's so good. Also the chocolate is so rich. And the horchata masala chai! Such a warm, sweet, flavorful combination of Indian and Mexican flavors. Might be a seasonal flavor? But so good! Try it if you like sweet and chai.

Home goods and gifts this store really has it all. I also appreciate the layout and that items are kind of categorized by theme or item. For example, where I first walked in they had two tables filled with beachy items. Pillows, wall decor, stickers, mugs, candles you name it. Really convenient when you have a theme or idea in mind and they have an entire table dedicated to those items. In the back were the cutest and softest baby clothes. Some of my friends have had little ones and I will definitely be back to shop for them. For myself I'm coming back for some super cozy sweaters - it's just too hot right now and at almost $50 a pop, it wasn't a need. The prices range. Some items seem reasonable and others are slightly overpriced in my opinion BUT the convenience of getting so many cute things all in one spot makes worth paying a little more okay in my eyes as it's a one stop shop. Lastly the staff are nice here. Everyone says hello and they greet you with good vibes. They are helpful but don't hover. All in all this is a great store in downtown and I'll be back soon to snag some goodies.

On a warm afternoon we were greeted by air conditioning and a friendly welcome from the woman working there. Both were a nice treat as we spent a little time downtown. The usage of the high ceilings and historic space in the boutique are glorious to behold. They featured fresh flower bouquets, clothing, jewelry and other accessories, lotions, and gift items. Several delineated sections focus on various themes and colors. There's so much to see! It would take a while to view the bulk of the goodies for sale. The shopkeeper mentioned that they have another location further up Main Street. While I didn't but anything this time, I could easily be persuaded to return and dig deeper!

Wow, what a cool find here in downtown Ventura. It was not only a beautiful day outside (at least…read morein Ventura), but it was a beautiful time inside looking at all the fun things truly PACKED in every square inch of this place..... and then some. I don't know how the owner manages to find room to add more stuff. Regardless, I really like a lot of things here, but speaking honestly, I found the prices to be a bit on the pricey side... not surprising for a gift store, but still, I found myself more justifying why I shouldn't buy it as opposed to convincing myself that I absolutely "needed" to have it.... or even buy as gifts for others. I thought about future Christmas gifts, but again, spending a lot of money for things so very tiny (some were)... so I kept saying no. I suppose I can always come back here.....I really do like what this store has to offer.

I visited on President's Day and it was a tad busy inside the store; but that's to be expected as it was busy everywhere! To be honest, the reason I stopped in here is because I saw the F*R*I*E*N*D*S gear repping Ventura. I will always be a tourist in my town. :) And, could I *be anymore serious? :) Staff was friendly; not too pushy. I loved that the store had a very "open" feeling inside, too. I get frustrated sometimes in stores Downtown that are cramped inside because I am always afraid I am going to knock something over. The souvenirs are really nice and well-made, too. Definitely does *not have the Vegas gift-shop vibe, if that makes sense. These items aren't mass produced...and you can tell. You can tell they mean something, too. I ended up getting a few stickers and a birthday present. I would definitely recommend stopping in here next time you're Downtown.
