Everything in this place: cards, tools, socks and stationary is food related. One table was entirely devoted to dill pickle swag! A shelf on the wall was completely reserved for butter merchandise! What? I love it! I have to say, this place was a lot of fun and would be a great place to shop for any chefs in your life. Or simply friends obsessed with food. I will definitely make a return visit.

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.

They also have an awesome selection of artists' goods in the back of their store, and books in the front. Everyone is always so friendly and helpful, and you can tell the store is very community centered. Love that they provide free masks for those who need them! Everything is pretty reasonably priced, especially for being in this section of Highland Park. I'm always willing to give my money to support small businesses over billionaires, and I hope this store stays around for a while.

I order online from them and they carry / curate an amazingly unique variety of products (I mostly buy pencils -- you won't find a larger variety of Japanese Camel pencils which have a unique design and amazing graphite -- everything except the 3B T-Prime version lol but that one is obscure).

Shorthand is a stationery shop located in Highland Park. This is one of several cards & stationery…read moreshops on York Blvd (including Crush & Touch locating right next door). Currently Shorthand has 3 locations - Highland Park, Larchmont Village, and San Anselmo. This Highland Park location is the flagship location. [Parking]: There are plenty of metered parking spots and paid public parking lots, but parking can be hard to come by during busy shopping seasons. [Selection]: The shop offers greeting cards, pens, notebooks, pen, pencils, gift wraps, etc. I like the greeting card selection a lot better at Shorthand, but I didn't see too many Valentine's Day cards. The shop was a lot more colorful than Crush & Touch as Shorthand organized pens and pencils by color. They also sell really neat hand drawn Highland Park and Eagle Rock maps. The shop also sells various colors of ribbon per yard and gift wrap. Each color of ribbon has a slightly different price. I actually got a red tight weave ribbon for $1.75 per yard and the staff even gave me a slightly extra length. [Gift Wrap Service]: Customers can purchase gifts in store or bring them in from elsewhere. In general, regular (one sheet) = $8, large (two sheets) = $14, and extra large (three sheets+) = $20+. [Conclusion]: A really cute stationery shop with all the supplies for gift wrapping.

Erin was incredibly easy to work with and super accommodating. The shop has a great open space in the back, which was perfect for the party. Erin assembled a beautiful selection of succulents, colored sand, shells, moss, and other unique accents, and led the girls through a fun and easy-to-follow tutorial on how to build their own terrariums. The vibe was very cool and creative. The girls had the best time making their gorgeous little creations, while the parents enjoyed browsing the shop's thoughtfully curated selection of goods. Erin and Sien were both wonderfully engaging and added so much to the experience. After the workshop, the girls walked over to Ice Cream Luv just a few doors down to wrap up the celebration with a sweet treat. It was the perfect afternoon at a perfect location for a memorable birthday party. This venue would also be ideal for Girl Scouts or other group gatherings--fun, educational, hands-on, well-priced, and in a warm, welcoming space. Thank you, Acorn Eagle Rock!

It's a bright and cheery wonderland of artistic treasures. Owner Leanna Lin is so incredibly adorable and sweet. She was a fashion designer for 10 years before turning her love for fashion & jewelry into a career. She started her own jewelry line in 2005 and then opened this lovely boutique in 2010. When I lived in the area, I would come here on a regular basis. I had some friends that were visiting from out of town and wanted to get them a unique & fun gift. Leanna Lin's was the perfect place! When I arrived, I was greeted by Leanna Lin's mom, who is an absolute doll just like her daughter. We had a wonderful conversation, while I browsed the store looking for the perfect gifts. Once I found them, she was kind enough to gift wrap them for me, which I appreciated. I love that Leanna assists local artists by showcasing their work in her store in addition to hosting art shows and events that give back to the community. I'm definitely happy to support this small, local business. Follow her on Instagram @Leannalinswonderland for updates on Art Shows and special events or leannalinswonderland.com/blogs/events.
