Brightly colored, and beautifully designed, Zinc Details has everything the modern enthusiast craves!
Zinc is full of exquisite items where beautiful Scandinavian design meets Japanese sublime simplicity.
Every product Zinc details presents at their store is well established in the world of avant-garde design. I highly recommend Zinc Details for their light hearted approach to form meets function, and friendly helpful staff of fellow designers. Zinc Details is definitely the hidden jewel of Fillmore Street!

This place was a fun find as I was on my way to GoodVibes. I decided to shoot up 17th (to avoid the sketch on 18th) and lo and behold I happen upon Aldea.
I smelled the place first, and later realized they have about 50 candles making the place smell lovely. I wasn't really in the market for anything, but the staff was attentive and friendly. I ended up buying a hot leather cuff (purfect for pride) and a mirror so I could look at my fine self. I saw they have a large baby section, which is good considering all the little tots out there that need fierce accesorizing. I did like the dishware and bedding, really quirky and modern. Discovered a huge card section. I will have to come back for the you are a *&^king lunatic card. It's about time someone sells cards that are a little more colorful. I've got a few friends who could benefit from them.
Anyway, after a few minutes, I was back on my way to GoodVibes. I recommend this place for gift giving, and self indulging. Did I mention I love that mirror.
Pros: You can buy enough candles to remake Madonna's Like a Prayer Video.
Cons: If you buy that many candles and light them all you could burn your place down:(

Back when I used to live with a photographer, we used to drive out of the Mission, past all the gazillions of other frame shops, way out to Geary to Cheap Pete’s. Isn’t it strange that frame shops are such a thing? An entire industry of putting pictures in rectangles!
They say Pete’s is the cheapest, especially if you use the frame-it-yourself table in the back, which cuts labor costs out of the whole affair.

It was Mother?s Birthday. I didn?t know what to do only Church Street Apothecary came to my mind. It has everything from Cosmetics & Beauty Supply, Toy Stores, Cards & Stationery, Newspapers & Magazines, and Kitchen & Bath etc. I went there. I was really embarrassed. My niece and nephews were there shopping for their mom. And then we also met up with my Mummy and my Sister-in-Law who had come here to buy gifts for us. We were embarrassed to see each other but then we laughed and completed our shopping. So you know it is our family shop. Whenever we want to express our love to each other we just come here.
Pros: Great Variety of stuff available
Cons: Could be a bit less expensive

This store is full of not only what you would normally expect in a regular hardware store, but all kinds of little Japanese knick-knacks that are fun to browse through. They had some cute little charms that I couldn't resist plus some rolls of paper that were good for hobbies. Right in the heart of Japantown.

Pottery Barn has a lot of dishes, flatware and various appointments for the home. Everything is displayed very nicely. But everything is a little too expensive. When there are sales, it is a bit more worth it. I bought a big dish set before and I was completely satisfied with their product. The store clerks are also very nice and helpful.

Wonderful kitchen wares shop with a kitchy, colorful, and entertaining shop owner.
Not "if you go", but "when you go", plan on spending a few hours at this amazing shop. If you are with someone you love who isn't quite as in to kitchen wares as you are, I recommend leaving them somewhere nearby so you can spend as much time as possible browsing through (without guilt) the endless racks and piles of new, used and vintage wares. The only drawback to this shop is that there is so much to look through, that at times you feel as if you are sure to miss that one treasure due to the overwhelming stock of goods.
Pros: Overwhelming amoutn of items
Cons: Lots of street repair going on - bad street parking for now.
