Shop Local Gift Guide, Part 3: Field Trip and Mācher

Shopping online is boring! Shopping in person is fun! Go find great things for the people you care about at our many terrific independent stores. In Part 3 of the Shop Local Gift Guide: Field Trip and Mācher (above)—and of course there’s far more at both than whatever caught my eye.

First up, Field Trip in La Arcada Plaza:

···············

Do, a deer, a female deer ($24)….

···············

Solar-powered lanterns ($42-$51)

···············

Snake rings ($33), for Swifties.

···············

Indian blanket scarves ($41), a.k.a. gift wraps.

···············

Miniature picture frames ($18).

···············

Wooden car toys ($45) made by the shop owner’s 90-year-old father.

···············

A new leaf: brass ginkgo ($25).

···············

And now, Mācher in Goleta’s Calle Real Shopping Center:

More gift wraps: House No. 23 bathrobe ($138).

Double trouble: Gray Malin two-sided jigsaw puzzles ($25).

···············

Mācher in Goleta, on Calle Real between Fairview and Patterson, is super cute. Easy and free parking, lunch at Nikka Ramen, groceries at TJs… even if you can’t find a great gift, the atmosphere is a gift in itself for the shopper!

Mācher and Field Trip are two of my favorite shops in town. Both have unique and sustainable finds!
