Cool concept that you can rent or buy the ceramics.

I walked in and realized this is some sort of Mexican shop where I'll be able to find lots of crafty stuff. Boy was I immediately mesmerized by all the fun crafts, especially the "pan dulce" stuffies which I think were like coin bags, some were conchas and the rest just regular pan dulce bags. There is lots to see and buy, and not to mention they have 2 other ships on the same street, per the sales associate who helped ring me up (couldn't leave without buying anything). This is a fun and colorful shop to find quirky stuff. From candy to clothing to crafts.

It's a destination by itself, but if you've got time, make a day of it by grabbing a gorgeous flower petal cake slice at the bakery next door, then walk around Little Italy (aka Restaurant Row) where you'll find lots of great choices for lunch & dinner. BUT FIRST SHOP -since hours are limited and you won't want to miss this shopping experience! You'll find lots of unique gifts, items to decorate your home, and even jewelry & scents that anyone would love to receive! I had way too much fun looking at every single thing in the store. If I could, I'd take it all. If you want a gift, invite me to your next party cuz I'm just dying to shop here again! On your way in, tell Sean I sent you! He's not only the owner, he's also the creative genius behind everything you see. So if you're looking for something special and don't see it, I'd check with him to see if he can order it.

There is a great variety of colors and to choose from once your item is complete and the cost of any additional art is more than reasonable considering the labor of love.

The clerk threw all the boxed tchotchkes into a non gusset end bag that are used to store magazines. When I asked whether they had a handle bag, she said yes they are running low so they are saving it for customers who buy bigger things (e.g. More expensive things). WTF, I just spent $40+ on junk and it wasn't big enough?!? How rude!
