But they don't have all the different products for that scent anymore. Makes sense --- since they now also have a bunch of new ones that I am excited to try like the Bergamot Shiso and their Enoki Cedar. Parking on the street in front of the shop is difficult, but I was able to find one two blocks away. Got some steps in. Their Teakwood & Tobacco is one of my favorites and I got some refill. Glad they are open weekday. No crowd. Friendly staff. I love how they have a big airy space so the scents don't become overwhelming. I also love how they organized and displayed their products -- logical.

We did an aura photograph together. It was well worth the price and the drive. The miss working gave us a mini reading on our aura and it was spot on with how we are as a couple. I loved the selection of crystals there was to offer. There were many I hadn't known myself and I use to work for a crystal shop!! I loved the entire vibe of the shop and took videos of everything so I could make a Tik Tok video. I am definitely looking forward to returning and enjoying some shopping and another photo. Parking was the only difficulty we had. As people who live in the High Desert and I'm not familiar with LA area, I thought there would be better parking. I now know - that doesn't exist in LA. But the parking adventure made the trip just that more fun as we experienced a new adventure together!!

Sumi's is an absolutely charming gift store located on Vemont, just a few stores down from the…read moreFigaro Bistrot. The owner, Sumi, keeps a large, but very well curated shop. You will find a wide range of gifts, at very reasonable prices. Some of these items include small ceramic pieces such as vases and small dishes suitable for stashing jewelry or other trinkets, crocheted animals and artistically designed maps of cities. I have also enjoyed the handmade soaps and other lovely, fragrant body products. I have often admired the jewelry on display, made by artisans running small businesses. There are a number of very interesting pieces: a gold/silver duo-tone necklace recently caught my eye and there are a number of pieces using labradorite and other less "mainstream" stones. As someone who write people frequently via snail mail, I have come to rely on Sumi's as one of my primary supplier of cards. Regardless of when I shop, I always find something that either a) cracks me up or b) is perfect for a message to a particular friend of family member. You will also find cute stuffed animals, scarves, posters, naughty cross-stitch patterns and more. Sumi's has a gift for just about anyone. Sumi and the other staff members have been universally friendly and willing to chat about various pieces they carry in the store. If you are shopping for presents, I would highly recommend a visit.

I've had a great experience at One Candle Story store in Glendale, CA, where all my ideas were properly addressed and I was able to find the perfect gifts for my friends. The owner of the store helped me chose matching personalized candles and other items and created nice arrangements with cute packaging within minutes. This is a family-owned small business and the store was clean and calm. What I love is that their candles are being prepared from natural ingredients and they also ship within the U.S. Everything made for the customers' comfort. Will definitely shop here again.

Today the door was open and I stepped in, and I am so glad I did. What a sweet find this place is! Sometimes shops like these can be overwhelming to me; however, there is nothing pretentious about One Candle Story. They make all their candles right there, you can see some of 'behind the scenes' right there in the front room, the candles and gems are really well priced, and most of all, Susan and her husband (the owners, I presume) were so pleasant and delightful, and very helpful. I'll certainly be back to shop for more gifts!

The shop has another location in Hudson, NY. [Parking]: Metered parking in Atwater Village, but luckily I found a metered parking spot across from the shop at 5 PM on Saturday. [Selection]: Very organized shop as pens are ordered by rainbow color. The shop sells a decent selection of Valentine's Day cards. The staff was friendly and even asked customers on what they were looking for. In addition to greeting cards and stationery, they also have candles, tote bags, etc. The shop also offers gift wrapping service and apparently they even sell red rose bouquets during Valentine week. [Gift wrapping service]: The service is only available at brick & mortar locations. Materials are purchased separately and holiday rush fees may be applied. The shop offers complimentary gift wrap on all in-store purchases (customer's choice of kraft box or kraft wrap with twine). During the busy holiday season, the staff may asks customers to drop off gifts and pick up at a later determined time. * Small (e.g. Small Book, Journal, Pen Box, Candle) = $8 * Medium (e.g. Shoe Box, iPad, Shirt Box) = $10 * Large (e.g. Oversized Books, Laptop, Coat) = $12 * Extra Large (oversized) (e.g. Oversized Kids Toys, Bedding Sets, Large Framed Art, TV) = $20+ [Conclusion]: The shop has a more diverse selection and is not limited to just Japanese style cute stationery. This is really a one-stop shop for anyone looking for a last minute gift.

I loooove a good small business that gift wraps!!…read more I had two friend birthdays to shop for and I found everything I needed plus more. I got some chocolate bars based on my friend's personalities and a candle in a scent named after a vacation place one of them wanted to travel to. They'll gift wrap for free with kraft paper and you even have the option to choose premium wrapping for a small additional fee. As someone that is awful at wrapping gifts, this perk was amazing for the price and I always opt-in if it's available. All my interactions from entering, to checking out, to picking up were phenomenal!! The shop attendants greeted me and my husband warmly upon entering and their hospitality also trickled into their text messages when they were keeping me up-to-date on my wrapping order. Do note that when they are backed up with gift wrapping, they might have you come back at a later time if there's a queue! This is an excellent problem because there are so many shops to duck in and out of nearby. I ended up running other errands outside of the area and coming back before closing on my way to my friends' parties. Getting a greeting card, several presents, a little 'treat yourself' gift to me, and gift wrapping all in one stop? Perfection.

But, where I live, there were closer…read moreplaces to buy esoteric sundries: candles and incense and eye of newt (your mileage may vary). Suddenly, I do a google search and realize that Pan's Apothika (the spiritual successor to Pan Pipes) is literally a block and a half from where I live! This occult store has a very punk-witchy aesthetic with a hand-painted icon of Hekate, a statue of Baphomet and pentagrams formed with twigs and ribbon. It has all the staples of an esoteric store, so you can easily find candles, incense and crystals, along with jewelry, pins, stickers and patches. The clerk on duty was kind and willing to assist. In my case, I was just looking for some basics, but Pan's Apothika offers other services of the occult persuasion. And prices are actually extremely reasonable So give this place some love.

I've seen a lot of the readers there and they're great, but one reader truly stood out to me: Georgi :) I've had three readings with her, and every single session she has hit it out of the ballpark.

In fact, I felt guilty not going to the Larchmont store because of all the great service I always receive there. But Violet and the Sunset Row staff are just as great as Daisy and the Larchmont team.

Sunset Row does get bonus points for having a sink, and the store is beautiful, with its tall ceiling and mellow sage coloring.
