Hi all,

I want some new CHA STUFF! I'm in LA for the weekend. Where should I go?

Thanks!

In LA? Goodluck

If you have a car and can travel, I would head up to Santa Clarita to Remember When When I lived in LA I found that they had a great selection and the place is huge. If you're near the 405 it's doable, but if you're further inland it might be a pain.

I moved away, but there used to be a small shop in Culver City, at the Howard Hughs center. I moved away 2 years ago so they might have closed. Their selection was tiny so I'm not sure how worthwhile it would be.

If your further inland, there's a decent shop in Ontario, CA. I only visited twice on my way through the area but it had a nice selection.
Wootens (again, this was about 2 years ago)

Hi!
I would recommend Scraparazzi in Whittier. They have a really good selection and a friendly staff.
If you're looking for something specific, you may want to call ahead to make sure they have it in stock.

Cheers!

If you're staying near LAX in the South Bay area there's a store in Torrance called "Scrampers" and it's still open. They're the best in the area. If you want to step into 1999, there is a store called A to Z Scrapbooking on Anza. I walked in there a few weeks back, and was shocked by the time warp!

Scrampers has a pretty nice staff, some decent stuff, but it's 'just' a LSS.

There used to be a great store in Irvine, but it closed. We don't have much for great stores.

Even that store "Urbanic" in Venice was a waste of gas. It was a great little store, it was cute. But meh, I didn't buy anything. And they are definitely more stationary oriented then other blogs would lead you to believe.
