The Curiosity Shoppe is one of those stores that’s been on my list of places to visit for a few years now. The items sold at The Curiosity Shoppe are quirky, fun, playful and I don’t doubt that the shop located in San Francisco has any less of a personality than its products. How clever are those Know It All Pencils, the old school phone plug-in head set, and the pair of glasses that’s actually a memory stick called “Four Eyes” USB Drive? You could spend quite a bit of time at their lovely shop so be forewarned, it might be a bit of a time sink (but it’s clearly worth it to discover all of its awesomeness).
Luckily, Jon and some friends I are planning a trip out to San Francisco this August so hopefully I’ll have the esteemed privilege of meeting the inspirational couple behind this quirky shop and seeing the eclectic products first hand!
Which item is catching your eye?

So I’m really digging the beakers and the ribbons (I’d love to write things on those for friends). I may have to swing by this shop when I’m up in San Fran too. I probably just should prepare myself to spend some time there.

They’re all lovely pieces, but I do love those pencils. They bring out my inner nerd. Love ‘em!

I love the curiosity shop – it is filled with the most lovely things. I’ve actually been in San Francisco, it is so so so cool!
Love the assortment of goods you’ve placed here, they’re all so cute I can’t decide which is my favorite.

OMGosh!! I live for stores like this. Dick only allows me a certain amount of time to be in Office Depot, Max, and Lakeshore per month – really! I could look in this shop ANY TIME I WANTED TO … now as for the buying part of my looking … I’m not sure how I’ll handle that!
