Beautiful products as gifts, such as necklaces, books, hats, cultural crafts, handmade gifts, unique jewelry, locks, bags, pouches, art, souvenirs, etc. Great value. Good service next door. Views are spectacular inside and outside. Small narrow space, but perfect for a unique gift shop. Decent value. Shop ends at the stairwell in back. Highly decorated at every shelf and angle. I really liked all the colorful items and designs I see. There's definitely variety here, especially if you want to buy a specific gift for someone. Next door is also an art gallery boutique. Beautiful place with beautiful vibes. Must love. I like browsing around the store whenever I'm waiting for my coffee and pastries or breakfast sandwich next door. Friendly and welcoming environment with lots of great things to see. I will definitely revisit in future.

She took the time to give me honest, gentle feedback on the headbands I tried -- what really suited me and what didn't -- and it felt like she genuinely wanted me to feel good, not just make a sale. And she was right: these headbands didn't hurt my head like the ones I tried in the past. I always return to places where I feel seen and cared for, and Celeste made the experience feel personal and special. I'm already eyeing the beautiful bags they carry to help elevate my everyday style.

the owner of this shop assaulted my friend with a nutcracker…read more in a complete accident, my friend knocked over a nutcracker and unfortunately slightly damaged it (a fixable matter and could have even been sold at a discount rate). he immediately said he would pay for it we apologized and decided to leave as to not cause any more issues. as we were trying to leave the owner began to yell at us saying "i wouldn't have made you pay for it but you should have offered" and we apologized again but he was getting more aggressive and we just wanted to remove ourselves from the situation. he came out of the store and literally BOOED at us as we were walking away. as we continued on down the street and turned the corner, the owner had FOLLOWED us to violently throw the nutcracker at my friend. the nutcracker fully smashed and the owner, a sad bitter excuse for a man, said (like a child fighting on the playground) "you broke it first!!!" truly cannot believe anyone would do this and no one should support this nasty mole man or his business.

The owner is genuinely kind -- she even guided me through some tarot when I opened a set I probably…read moreshouldn't have, which I really appreciated. And showed me how she shuffles decks, had me use her cards to try myself - very informative. If she offered some classes of some kind or just events at the shop- I feel like that would be beneficial and of interest. That said, I can't personally shop somewhere that doesn't allow returns once something's opened. The policy makes sense, it's just not a good fit for me. There are quite a lot of items as far as selection for what from the outside looks like a very small shop. Most items are available for much less online, and in my opinion, the value here simply doesn't match the prices. This is really only a place to shop if supporting a local business matters more to you than what you're getting for the money.

This unwelcoming attitude doesn't build a strong buy local community. This is discrimination and it should not be tolerated in our downtown Salinas community.
