Best pot making workshop!…read more My friend booked a Make-a-Pot Workshop on Eventbrite this past Saturday and we had so much fun adding colors to our cement molds. The class was organized by Krizia (aka Concrete Geometric on IG). We arrived a little late for the class, but luckily they had just began and we were able to pick our molds - oval, circle, or square. Our class favorited the oval shaped molds and we quickly became experts at mixing different colors thanks to Krizia's assistance. Based off all of the services she provided, this was definitely an experience I'd invite all of my friends and family to try. While we waited for our molds to bake, there were plenty of beautifully crafted items for sale. As a student of the class, we were given a 10% discount off items purchased in the store and a free succulent from the yellow bin. Snacks and bottled water were available for us as well. After our molds were ready, it was time for the reveal. Each student opened their mold to show the class and it was wonderful to see everyone's unique creations. We took group photos and received a polaroid to take home. It was the sweetest gesture! This class was such a blast and at such a great value! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to get in touch with their creative side.

It's a fun place for crafty people. Celebrated a birthday here. They were kind enough to let us cut a cake that we brought along. The vibe is very hip and nostalgic. Pacman, Mario, Micky Mouse, lots of mushroom sculptures, bags, pens, and much more! They give you an apron and gloves. You customize the colors you want in the pot! They provide the concrete mix and the colored powder to choose the color you want. Krizia showed us the consistency we needed before we poured the mixture into our molds. You can customize whether you want your pot to have drainage holes. The concrete dries quickly! The curing process happened in two parts and happened over about less than an hour. You can technically go get coffee while you wait for it to dry. The shop is beautifully merchandised. They are a design agency that has a little store, which also hosts workshops.

For a reasonable price- you put together a perfect look for my living room. Since I have completed this, I get compliments from all 3 of my daughters all the time and even other 'design people' love this. It is so relaxing to have such a clean professional look going; in fact, my work benefits (my office is adjacent to my living room) as I feel so focused with such a strong, well designed living room. I simply cannot believe how good of a job Alison did. I am very appreciative. Chic House/Alison also selected accessories to make the look complete. I could not be any happier with Chic House/Alison.

Oh, my...where to begin? My husband and I were walking through Montrose this past November. I had…read morenever noticed this store before. It is a little gem, stuck between two other stores and the interior was decorated like an absolute fairyland of lights, glitter, and good taste. The reviewer who complained that they couldn't get a wheelchair through the tightly decorated aisle or a baby stroller needs to stop and think. The inventory here is very delicate and the chance of catching an item on a moving chair or stroller could be highly upsetting to both owner and customer. LA real estate is very expensive. Commercial spaces that are tighter may limit your ability to shop in the case of small boutiques. That's why online stores are so convenient for all of us. The disabled, elderly, immobile, and for parents of children under six who might inadvertently handle or break delicate items may need to use caution. This is not the owner's fault. This store has beautiful jewelry, but I needed Christmas hostess gifts this holiday. I walked out of there with tons of beautiful hand blown ornaments and holiday decor for the home. Every item was lovely and each presented beautifully upon lit glass shelves. I was so excited to find the items I did that I returned the next day and bought two more gifts. A gorgeous 4" ballerina ornament and a colorful hot air balloon ornament. Nothing you could find in Macy's or Ross or Neimann Marcus. Our New Year's hostess was elated when she opened her LaPerla bag stuffed with colorful tissue paper and the ornaments we brought to her party. The best surprise was the lovely gift wrapping. NO ONE DOES THAT ANYMORE. It's is generous of the owners and kind of them to share such a luxury. I'll be shopping at LaPerla again very soon and want to thank Soma and all her lovely helpers. Finally, I don't have to make a big drive to Salutations over in Pasadena. Why? I have luxury gifts right here in our neighborhood and we're supporting small businesses in our own community. Thank you, La Perla, for sustaining elegance in our small town.
