“Hi,
Yesterday,I had the opportunity to visit this wonderful place, everything there is simply charming! There are many unique and exclusive options for giving gifts. Furthermore, the customer service is very special and delicate. I was looking for a bag made of good quality fabric several weeks ago, and I found it there! I bought a beautiful bag with a painted hummingbird, this is fashionable! I adore it. I recommend this gift shop 100%,”

“This is a beautiful store and the owner was extremely patient while I sent photos to my husband of the candlesticks that we were interested in purchasing. He is committed to staying on Piedmont Avenue and has been in this location for over 25 years. We are so happy that I “shopped local” yesterday.”
“This store is SO beautiful and bright. Sometimes i go in and look around just to brighten my mood. Ive gotten some of my most cherished clothes here. Also a great place to find fun gifts for others.”
“My favorite gift shop around. Love the ever-changing selections (especially the earrings!!) and how sweet and helpful the staff are. You can tell this a shop created with so much love and attention to detail.”
“I must confess that surely she is a skilled professional trader and the best among all, as her clients all said, I saw so many positive reviews about Mrs Mrs Mariel Ramsey, and she managed my account after I Invested $1000 and got a successful withdrawal of $10,200 within few days of my investment, "It always seems impossible until it’s done"., with Mrs Mariel Ramsey your hard-earned money is 100% secured/Safe You can contact her via Email: [email protected]”
“i just love this beautiful store, everywhere you look is something that makes you feel happy :) I visited Waterlilies last week and Ray was so sweet to help me wrap my new wind chimes and he didn't mind me tinkling all the chimes in the store.
I chose this wind chime because its tones are soothing and perfectly balanced—not too high to be irritating or deep (formal). The chimes resonate with a beautiful echo that lingers just long enough before fading into a faint, magical whisper.
The combination of wood, glass, and jade— harmonized and truly spoke to me, creating a sense of peace and connection.
I'll be checking their website for items I may have missed and will be back for new gloves and knee pads. Working on my garden, and this is a wonderful boutique to inspire me and Pamela is very creative with the space. I love family owned places because I love shopping local!!
Go in and be inspired :)”
“Very very lovely store! The owners are so nice and helpful. This store is stacked with beautiful items to buy from clothes to jewelry and even black soap and body oils. Love shopping here, I spend $200 and over every time cause it's WORTH IT!”
“LOVE this place! Beautiful artwork, unique and interesting handmade things are fun to look at and I always find gifts to give and something for myself too. Thank you for having a space like this that is always so inspiring!”
“I can't think of a more perfect shopping experience. Tiffany is such a bright light in our community and she has made a BEAUTIFUL space full of treasures. Visiting her shop is always uplifting. The view is spectacular and makes you slow down and appreciate the good things in life. Like a Chateau Marmont candle! :)”
“A hidden gem! Such a lovely store with a wide selection of items, some of which are super unique and rare. Karen was extremely friendly, helpful, and patient - She gave me a 30-minute tour of the shop, helping me find the ideal gift. She also meticulously gift-wrapped the item I bought for free.”

“The selection of gifts are vibrant, uniquely designed, and thoughtfully curated. I appreciated how the store owner allowed me to pair and match various baskets even though they were filled with inventory. I was able to pick up last-minute Christmas presents from Nepal, Kenya and India. If you are looking to add more color or geometric designs to your household, there's a drool-worthy section of constellation-inspired houseware (like salt cellars with stars on them) and beautiful basket planters all over the shop.”

“Terrific items and wonderful service. The owner has now helped me twice and has always been very very helpful. I was unaware though of a fee on my credit card until i got home on the first occasion and my wife pointed this out. I don't understand why this should be....i don't think i have ever encountered this in my life without a sign telling you about this OR being offered the choice of cash or credit ahead of time . This should be corrected immediately or just done away with. Its kind of tacky in an exquisite shop with beautiful merchandise. I will not stop shopping there because of this because its so great to have this paragon of a gift shop close by us.”
“I love popping into Bay-Made when I am in the area! They have been my go to spot for gifts (and treats for myself!). I appreciate how Bay-Made features local artists and art/decor that feels true to the East Bay. One of my most treasured pieces of art is a poppy print I picked up from them a couple years back!”

“Truly the sweetest employees and owner!! :) LOVE that they have all natural fibers for ALL their clothes! Despite them closing, they have an online store which I def recommend everyone to support ?”
“jewelry is incredible quality and well-priced. the man who runs it is always very helpful when looking for something in particular and knowledgeable about the stones he sells. He’s also very friendly with his customers, and always has rapport with at least one person in there whenever i’m in the shop. if you’re looking for a solid piece of jewelry, i can’t recommend this place more. i’ve spent hours perusing his selection. great place to buy rings for men and women.”
“I love going here for hard to find products. He has the best shea butter, mango butter and even carries shea oil. All the hair and body products you are looking for, found here.”

“I had to drive all the way from OKLAHOMA to get the cutest stuff from here!!!!
If you’re looking for home decor or a unique gift - this is the spot!!!”
“From Tara-Nicholle's review - "totally stuffed to the gills" may be the biggest selling point and biggest gripe I have with Maison d'Etre. It's nearly impossible to move around when there's more than a handful of people in this shop, but that inspires you to look at everything more closely and enjoy every detail and the curation by the owners. They do have lots of handmade items, minimal vintage, and anything you could want to gift your friends and loved ones, and more often than note a treat for yourself too!”
“This place is a hidden Jewel. Located in the East Bay. It is a Wonderland of artifacts and supplies for all things Latino. The owners are wonderful and kind people who are very knowledgeable in regards to all the items they carry. Bilingual.It's the perfect place to stock up on items. You would like to have around the house to decorate for various Mexican holidays! Great selection.”
“Love David M's for unique jackets, dinner ware, Nice hostess gifts.
CORRECTION on posted time for David M's in Danville. They are NOT open till 6P.M. We were there on a Wed and the

“I love this place! I was looking for a gift, but found cards, several books and things for my home, and some beautiful new earrings. I spent an hour and it was not enough to see and explore all of the treasures that are in there. Gift wrapping, helpful staff, and displays that offer great ideas are a plus.”

“Wasn't sure what to make of this shop when I first moved into the neighborhood, but two years later I don't know what I'd do without it! They have a very well-curated selection of cards, way better than you'd find in a drug store or supermarket. They also have a constantly rotating collection of random giftable items that have helped me out in a pinch on several occasions. Prices might be a bit higher than some other places, but good taste doesn't come cheap!”
“Great experience buying a special bowl. Do go in with a set price you’d like to spend so you don’t feel pressured to buy a more expensive one, because the more expensive ones are REALLY tempting and the owner is so kind and helpful you’ll feel compelled ?. These are very good quality so expect to spend $100-500 for a 6-12” bowl.”
“I needed a few knick-knacks for Christmas and little decorations and my mom told me to come to David m Brian. This place reminds me of my childhood, lot of really nice old school style Christmas decorations that really warm my heart. Perfect addition to round out my Christmas season. I recommend it!”
“Lobsang’s shop has such an amazing energy! He has great products and is a super kind soul. Very friendly and welcoming , great conversation - Lobsang was generous in sharing stories. This was a wonderful experience. We walked away with a shampoo soap bar made in Kathmandu and a full heart - inspired to learn more about healing Tibetan singing bowls and visit Nepal and India!”
“Super cool place to visit, the guy who works there is super nice and makes good conversation. Good deals, and they have cool posters made by local artists as well!”
“Seven and Hailey are amazing! Their customer service is top notch. I will definitely keep buying lots of stuff from the Sun Valley Mall location! Give these wonderful ladies a raise!”
“This place was so cute! I went for a high tea with East Bay Girls Who Walk and they even provided gluten free snacks for me! Everything is local and handmade and I love supporting small businesses! Highly highly recommend!”
