    I went between a 4 star and a 3 star review. I think what makes it a 3 star is that the prices just were a bit more than I imagined. If you can stomach that then... This place is like heaven for people who like to be organized. They have ideas for storage, containers, bins, space savers etc for every nook and cranny of your place. I ended up walking away with things / ideas for storage that I didn't even think I needed. Rightfully so, this place is super organized and not a thing seemed out of place. It seems as if kitchen and bathroom items are to the left when you walk in, items for your office is in the back, and then on the right side is a mixture of bedroom and closet items. There's a small clearance section as well but it's not that great. Parking lot is huge and its shared. I came on a Sunday midday and expected the store to be busy since there was hardly any parking but inside there were only a handful of people shopping. Accessible parking is available and the doors are motion sensored. The store is stairless. The workers weren't the greatest. Barely a greeting. Was going to ask one a question but it felt like they were making a B-line to the breakroom.

    I purchased a new container and was given someone's returned used container. Yuck!

    Went to do a curbside pick up order for these containers and received one that looks like it's been used with no stickers, scratches and dried up water marks. Unfortunately I live 20 minutes away so have to make another trip down there to exchange a used product for a new product. The store did apologize for the inconvenience but the person that packed the order shouldn't have given out a used product in the first place.

    Accessibility: they have wheelchair accessible parking across from the entrance of this building, also electric vehicle charging spots across from the entrance, and the doors are motion-activated, all of the store and parking lot being on the same ground level, no stairs anywhere. Experience: it looks fancy and very organized inside. The employees were not really that welcoming and I was getting a lot of stares as a young person just walking around looking at organizational things, but they have a lot of cool stuff that is helpful for your home. They have sections of the store labeled "kitchen," "office," etc. The only part I really wasn't a fan of was the prices...yikes. This is definitely not a store for someone who needs to organize but is already struggling financially.

    Another tip: The only time all Elfa systems go on sale is in December (I didn't want to wait that long).

    I went there on Wednesday and it's such a delightful store. The man that helped me was really sweet…read moreand I loved his dog. The stuff is pretty expensive and high-end, but if I had a lot of money, I would buy a lot of things! I did buy a little pitcher and it was reasonably priced. I would've loved to have bought some of the blue and white table linens but they were just out of my price range but so very very lovely. I would highly recommend this place especially if you like the colors blue and white as much as I do for your living room decor.

    Lovely home goods boutique owned by locals. It is a delight to browse the curated items and chat…read morewith the owners who clearly have sophisticated design backgrounds - but are so approachable and friendly. Several beautiful coffee table books they carry are on my bucket list (support small business!) and I couldn't resist the coziest recycled tartan wool blanket last time I popped in. When you need a memorable birthday, wedding or housewarming gift, stop at Mood Indigo. They have on-trend candles, bowls, platters, baskets and serving ware, and the photographs and artwork would certainly impress a hard-to-please recipient who seemingly has everything! This little shop is a perfect place to find unique keepsakes for those vacationing in La Jolla/Bird Rock, too. You'll spend a bit more here but instead of cheap touristy items found elsewhere, you'll have high-quality gifts your friends and family will actually cherish and keep for a lifetime.
