Why don't you take a picture, it'll last longer

We had the pleasure of having San Francisco based Christina Schmidhofer photograph Mixed Pickles last month. It was fun seeing her work, and interesting to experience the shop from her perspective. We've sprinkled a few of the shots on our site, but most were posted on the design blog Desire to Inspire on January 13, 2011 and SFGirlbyBay on January 26th. We are grateful and honored to have been featured- a big thank you to Christina, Meg, Victoria, Kim & Jo for everything that was done to help us shine.
BTW- that's our pal Meg Escude holding the reflector. She is a very talented artist herself.

Welcome to Mixed Pickles. The new shop is overflowing with sunlight, brightly colored pottery, and toe tapping vintage tunes. We've refined our look, and modernized our inventory a bit. 

We have an eclectic mix of new, vintage & salvaged pieces:

One of a kind things with interesting stories, artfully created cards, and new gift items with a playful feel.

You can pull up a stool in front of Maureens case and dig through her boxes of tiny treasure. Old keys, cigar boxes, tiny animal figurines, rubber stamps and swizzle sticks are just a few of the things she has on display.

 

We carry deliciously scented soaps, candles, bubble bath, lip gloss and perfume from Tokyo Milk.
