“• Maido (Japantown): I first went to Maido looking for a specific sketchbook by Trystrams. They do carry it, but it wasn’t available in-store and there was no clear restock timeline.
• Topdrawer (Valencia): They only carry proprietary items and don’t stock the Trystrams sketchbook, but the person there immediately pointed me towards the Wishing We’ll workshop.
• The Wishing Well Workshop (Clement): They looked for it and realized they were all sold out. The owner immediately placed an order in multiple colors and took my contact info to notify me when it arrives. The reason I went through all this: the Trystrams sketchbook is thin, easy to carry, and the paper quality is exceptional.
Love this workshop!”
“Recently I went to the store with a massive list of various things to buy and the staff immediately left what they were doing to help me out. When they didn’t have exactly what I needed, they offered a sensible alternative. When I was at the cashier they also applied the student discount before I even remembered to ask.”
“Got a ton of stuff from these guys back in 2020 when I was making an involved Halloween costume. They were so knowledgeable and I loved that it was a local business!”
“I got a great quality memobook here. I'm very picky about personal stationery that doesn't degrade or fall apart (sagging spines, damaged page fringes, 'writes' nicely with a ballpoint pen, and oh of course writes smoothly with MUJI pens).
The shop ladies were a little wary when I was going around their book selection with a ruler to measure exact dimensions (my work bag can't fit medium or large notebooks), so I quickly picked a memobook with tearable pages and finished the purchase.
Lovely set up, wish I had more time to browse other stuff.”
“This is my second time visiting scrap. I went about 3ish weeks ago and the inventory I was interested in (paper, stamps, stickers) were completely different. I got a ton of stuff both times for under 5 bucks. Cant beat the prices !
Still hoping for a die cut machine though!”
“I had the opportunity to work with Mark Busaca during the late 1990s and early 2000s while helping organize sporting events, including several televised on ESPN and HBO.
Mark designed the event posters and was responsible for creating the VIP experience, and I can honestly say his work was outstanding.
His attention to detail, creativity, and ability to transform a space into a first-class environment was remarkable. The ambience he created for guests and sponsors always elevated the event and left a lasting impression. Mark consistently delivered a polished experience.
I highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a gallery experience.”
“Nice curation of kids toys, books and gift items! We stopped by to pick up something for a 4 year olds birthday and we found it hard to pick just one - so many amazing choices!”
“They almost always have what I'm looking for here. The store is well organized with an open floor layout these leaves lots of space, even when they're busy. Staff is always super kind and helpful.”
“Went here for some elastic for a sewing project. They didn't have the exact one I wanted, but I was able to get the size that I needed. Also, surprisingly not that busy on a Sunday afternoon. While I was impressed with what fabrics they did have, as a fashion designer, the fabric selection was nothing more than costume furs, flannel and quilting cottons. Great selection of yarns and knitting/ crochet items though. Also, liked their selection of sketchbooks and drawing tools. Overall, great arts & crafts store, but could be better as a fabric store.”
“The staff is soooo friendly I enjoy coming here! I always find what I need. Theres sales often. This location doesn’t do custom framing I believe, market does!”
“This is the place to go to if you love stationary. But. Beware. It’s not a cheap. And there is so much cute stuff here that you will be hard pressed to leave without buying something.
The stamps and the washi tapes/ Japanese masking tapes especially are so cute and the options so many.
I…ended up spending a lot more than I’d planned to. But all is well that ends well right? I guess. ?”
“Blick Art Materials is a giant nationwide chain of art stores. As such the things they sell are good but not great. However they carry a very wide selection of art supplies so you will need this store to supply all the additional things you can't get from specialty stores.”
“Great place to pick up presents, for both children and adults! The owner is so friendly and helpful, and they always wrap your gifts for free! I love shopping here”
“More of a knickknack store/gift shop than a true stationery store. Not as serious as, for example, Maido. So if you're looking for fountain pens, inks, and quality writing paper or notebooks, this is not the place you're looking for. This is more of a cute store for the casual shopper.”

“CFM’s paints, supplies, and classes are all phenomenal. I love finding an excuse to schlep out to Ocean Beach so I can stop in and buy more fun stuff. I’m so glad I found this place — and a new hobby in watercolor!”
