This review is LONG overdue! We've been visiting Aurelia's store for weeks now and it is always a delight. She and her husband Tony are the warmest, most interesting people. They have amazing stories about their past that can keep us engaged for half an hour or more! So much fun talking & catching up with each other that even after such a short period they are good friends of ours. Now - onto the store! This place caught my eye my first day walking around Pacific Grove. It's located in a really good location, near the laundry, the bookstore, and right downtown. The store is a bit small but don't let that deceive you! The first thing I noticed were the windchimes - Aurelia had set up an entire beautiful display outside. Her cactus gardens were also absolutely amazing. Together the entire outside reminded me of vacations, the beach & joie de vivre in general. It was just so cheerful! Of course, I had to go inside! The variety of items in the store is fantastic - from beautiful clothing, to elegant scarves, amethyst hair clips, swarovski brooches, beautiful paintings, multicolored decorations from angels to hummingbirds, dichroic jewelry, cottage-inspired art & home decor & so much more! I immediately asked if we could put a few items "on hold" before anyone else could snatch them up. I'm so glad I did b/c she generously agreed to store them until we could pick them up and she also said multiple people had asked to buy them afterwards! On to Aurelia herself - what a remarkable woman! She really gives from her heart and her creativity and passion for working with local artists are just a few of her wonderful traits. She never pressures or upsells but she always has great prices - there is truly something for everyone regardless of your budget. In fact, I couldn't believe some of the prices - $20 for a pair of dichroic earrings? $8 for a gorgeous hanging angel that would make a wonderful gift? We were so delighted with the entire decor/style of her store that we wanted her to come and help us with interior decorating! Amazingly, she custom designed (for free - who does that?) a beautiful mobile after we picked our all of the little pieces we wanted to include. She has such vision that we described what we were looking for and then put the entire creation "in her hands" so to speak. Can't wait to see what it looks like!
