"This whole idea is perfection. Celebrating the beauty of where you are is such a terrific thing and these people know how to do it! I love coming here for beautiful cards that really represent the southwest. Beautiful stickers showcasing the saguaros and desert dwellers we have. I even got my kids a fun card game, Go Cactus here."

"This is my favorite store to go to in the MSA Annex, I love it! It's my go-to place for local gifts, Tucson T-shirts, I love the selection of cards, and cute things for the little ones. I always send something cool from here home for the holidays. The staff is super friendly always, and I love the Tucson wall - it makes for a great background for a photo! There's no other store like this in Tucson!"
