“I can’t say enough about how much the team at The Chapman Collection has helped me to find the perfect antique pieces and art work for my home. Melissa & Ron delivered unbelievable 5 star service on every transaction. The best buying experience for me ever…couldn’t be happier and look forward to my next visit at The Chapman Collection!!!”
“This was truly the best shopping experience I have ever had! From my first call to order an amazing terra cotta pot from Impruneta Italy Jacopo was amazing. He called Italy immediately to get my order in with his regular summer order. I knew these were custom made and expected a long wait. But what I didn't expect was the wonderful, regular updates I received including when it was loaded on a ship, when the ship arrived in Long Beach and when his order of pots arrived including mine with a photo! It was packed extremely well as it is 90lbs. I couldn't be happier. Jacopo even messaged me when UPS delivered it to make sure I got it. No matter what your interest, this shop is exceptional. And, if you want to learn more about "the best clay in the world" check out their Impruneta terra cotta vessels and planters!”
“I contacted the Original Strip Shop when I was looking for someone who could strip white paint off of a ceiling beam in my living room and refinish it to complement the walnut wood and wrought iron details that I have throughout my home. When Gus came over to assess the project and give me a quote, he was very honest about the complexity of the project and what would be required to pull it off as it was not something he does regularly. Gus and Anthony worked together on the project for over a week. They prepped everything in my home so nothing would get dirty and they cleaned up after themselves every day so while I was living in a construction zone, it was not unbearable! I was so impressed with their attention to detail and willingness to take the time needed to get it right. I am thrilled with the end result and would recommend them to anyone!”
“I can't say enough praises for Howard's Refinishing and Upholster. We had some cane chairs from my family. They were a pain. I asked Howard's if they could upholster them. They said sure, pick out some fabric. They were very patient with us as our whole family got involved in picking out the fabric. When we got the chairs back we were so excited to see that the workmanship was detailed and thoughtful. I would definitely recommend them. Our chairs are better than they ever were.”
“My favorite little antique shop. the owner is so sweet and knows so much about what she sells and it is very affordable! i’ve bought so many unique frames, post cards, and jewelry from here! she only takes cash so make sure to bring some. definitely come here and support her business (:”
“If you are looking for unique and special gifts or items to bring the seasons into your home, this is the place to go! This hidden gem in Vista… I can’t believe we just now, after 15 years in the area, have found this place! The owner, Dena, is the most genuine and kind person and is so talented at arrangements and decorating! Going to make this a regular place to visit when needing that special gift or just the right touch of something to add to the home!”

“Look no further when needing any of your furniture restored/refinished! Howard’s furniture refinishing and upholstery is the best! They are communicative, professional, and personable. Ariel and his dad are phenomenal and listen to what your needs and desires fit your furniture. We had a 100+ year old Queen Anne curio cabinet needing repair/refinished. They were able to repair the 2 legs, glass, and front piece and refinish it to make it look like brand new! Words cannot express how grateful we are to have them do our piece! Ariel and Howard thank you!!! Before and after pics!”
“I was curious about this place so I checked it out they have so many great things if you into rock collecting James this is a place to be. We also have a lot of antiques. What got my attention was the parrots, a little pricey but beautiful worth every penny”
“I am blown away by the honesty of this company. I had an issue with an item in the estate that Ann and her amazing team were hosting and they went above and beyond to rectify the situation. Their honesty and kindness is refreshing compared to many other companies. Their prices are fair. Thank you so much Ann and Coast 101 estate sales!”
“Great little shop with things to see. Got a beautiful pillowcase and the 18x18 pillow insert fit fine at home. Love it. Thank you so much. Hope to return in the future.”
“Excellent high quality products and amazing customer service. It's also a family owned business. The products here are much higher quality and have more variety to choose from then any other vendor I've seen before. If your building a new home or remodeling, your going to find authentic craftsmanship on door handles, knobs, hooks, and custom hardware from B&M, to be ideal for your homes décor and functionality. It's always a pleasure working with Christi at B&M hardware!”
“Pricey on the items I was looking for. Ridiculous on cheap glass jewelry. But these are rented stalls not property if the business.
Overall great window shopping. Very helpful staff.”
“We make it a point to visit this shop every year when we are there for summer vacation. The shop has a great assortment of baubles to admire. Vicky, the owner, is patient with pulling out whatever you want to see. I have never felt rushed or like I was annoying them with my questions, whether we purchased something or not. I purchased a couple of pairs of turquoise earrings this trip and was interested in the stories that came in with the pieces. Sadly for me I do not live closer. Highly recommend this shop, but give yourself time to do it justice.”
“Got this beautiful painting for my mom! (happy mothers day!) And she adores it. This store has such beautiful lamps and other trinkets. Come with some money to spend! absolutely worth it.”
