ThousandSkies at Moment Jtown

Stop by this adorable shop where multiple local artists sell their awesome creations. There is something here for everyone. I got an adorable frog backpack, witchy stickers, mermaid stickers, goldfish stickers, axolotl enamel pin, and a gold fish hat.

Open late on a weekend night; a big plus to find after an art event at Art Objects Gallery. Small gifts purchased just in time for a family reunion back east!

I didn't get to go because they were closed, but I've bought many things on the website before. I love all her cute stickers and plushies. It looks like this space is shared with other local makers too!

Arrived here with a friend on a Sunday afternoon at 4 pm right after the worker inside finished his lunch break! Parking is easy and free on a Sunday, especially in downtown San Jose, so best time for you to explore without worry of a ticket or getting your car towed. The moment you walk in you'll be welcomed by adorable merchandise by a local seller- Thousand Skies- by her cute prints, stuffed plushies, and keychains. There's many more independent artists deeper within that were selling items from washi tapes, keychains, tote bags, and stickers. Super clean store with natural lighting that highlights the goods inside. During this time until July 9th, 2023, there's a special anime exhibit featuring original artwork based on SpyxFamily and Chainsawman!! I had to go, awesome exposure for local artists that love anime. There was an entire wall dedicated to their crafts from paintings, mugs, and more! In that room, there were other artists that delivered on Filipino culture with cute enamel pins and Kpop with BTS themed prints. Versatile room that highlighted so many fandoms and identities. Loved the experience so much that I couldn't go empty handed and bought two prints from the special anime exhibit! Definitely come visit! :)

Finally visited the new SJMade location in Japantown, San Jose! I was a frequent visitor of the old location at San Pedro Square and I'm glad to see they've reopened! Japantown is mostly metered street/sidewalk parking, but you can find free sidewalk parking if you park further away from 6th and Jackson. I love collecting art prints and stickers, so I'm a big fan of SJMade and all the artists who participate in their vendor market events. I will say that I miss the old store a bit, simply because I feel like it carried a larger variety of artist products. A majority of the products at Jtown are from 3 artists: Jacquelin Deleon, Le Petit Elefant, and Thousand Skies. (Disclaimer: I love these artists, but I do already have a bunch of merch from them already!) I would love to see more products from a bigger variety of local artists in the future! Anyway, Moment Jtown is definitely a great place to shop for cute things and I highly recommend dropping by! I will definitely be back!

The perfect spot to get a cute/quirky gift for friends and family! A cool concept about this shop is that most items here are locally made, so cute stuff + supporting small businesses! I've seen a bunch of stuff that reference animes, kpop, animals, etc. Most items are decently priced as well!

If you are in need of cute gifts and local art goodies, this is a one-stop shop! There's greeting cards, stickers, enamel pins, keychains, art prints, t-shirts, tote bags, plushies, AND MORE! This is a huge melting pot of different artists from the bay area ; all displaying their art for purchase. When I came, there was Thousand Skies, Le Petitie Elephant, and Jacquelin De Leon who held a majority of the space inside. An adorable addition to DTSJ Japantown!

When local artists unite, an incredibly cute stationary, sticker, and gift store is born! Did I already mention it was all local artists!? If you participated in the sticker-buying craze during the early days of the pandemic like I did, you'll be familiar with some of the local artists who sell their merchandise at this store. This includes artists like le petit elefant, naptimedoodler, and thousandskies (all on Instagram, too). The washi tapes can range from $4-$8 depending on the artist, which seems quite steep on the latter end, but keep in mind these are small business owners. There are baskets on the floor by the entrance to carry your items while you walk around the store. Each small shop has their own section in the store and when you check out, it'll be in separate transactions so the profit will go to the appropriate artist. I paid by Apple Pay but I'm not sure if they take cash. Great place to take kiddos or get gifts for the upcoming holidays! Even as an adult I'm gushing over how cute everything is. Come check it out!

We were walking along Japantown and found this knickknack store that was open. The Thousand Skies merchandise that was displayed in front of the windows was what caught my attention. They carry several artists' works in here and you have to pay for each artist's good separately. We got some cute vinyl stickers. Definitely check them out

Right off of the corner of the street in Japantown San Jose, this place is the definition of kawaii and is a great artist collective spot! I was a sucker for all the cute plushies and pins, and ended up purchasing a LOT more than I expected from this place. Unfortunately when I was there, none of the artists were there, but I loved the set up and that it was super comfy inside! Definitely check out their work and also their online platforms if you can!

I was walking around Japantown San Jose and came across this cute shop that has plushies, cute pins, stickers, etc. Moment Jtown sells other local/small businesses' art and accessories. I bought really cute pins and other stuff from this place. If you love cute accessories like pins, stickers, art, etc. then definitely stop by this shop!

I love this shop! I usually come here for the cuteness overload. Their products bring so much joy! From stickers to ceramics, pins, plushies - they have a variety of cute things and artists to choose from. This is the best place to find a unique gift for someone (and to grab something for yourself too). An added bonus is seeing the BTS boys in Le Petit Elefant's section of the store. How could you not love!? This location has gone through some changes over the years but this is the cutest addition to Japantown. I hope it stays around for a long time!
