The staff was friendly and it was a pretty fun store!!! Love the name of this place. There was even a free little library by the door and I love how colorful and inclusive the items were. It felt like I was being invited into someone's home.

My 2nd stop on Stationary Store Day was here. It's a cute shop with lots of things. In the back there was a little art show where we got to vote for our favorite. Again parking was terrible. I had to park 3 blocks away.

So many really cool pieces you can spend hours here. When I found out it was Latinx owned I knew I had to support.
