My favorite store to find gifts- whenever I'm in Astoria!
Forsythea is full of beautifully curated gems: home &garden, barware, bath/body, candles, and cool accessories.
I found the perfect gifts for my girls with Monica's help. I came into the store wearing my mask and was delighted to see she had one on as well. Having the public in and out of businesses is a risk for getting sick for visitors and employees. Kudos to you, Forsythea.
Monica also introduced me to several items that are handmade by local artists and craftsmen. Shopping local is important whenever I visit a place I love to visit. Thanks again for your help Monica. I'll see you next time I'm in Astoria, hopefully before Christmas.

Arrived before posted closing time and they had closed sign up, but still people inside. Asked just to make sure they were actually closed as I just wanted to grab a baby book and go. Treated rudely and no “sorry, please come back”. Well, I won’t and I’ll be sure to tell my Clatsop County friends who shop and support downtown during the non-tourist season to avoid this establishment. This is unfortunate. And why Amazon does well. Please note, I have only ever complained on Google one other time a long time ago.

I LOVE this store! I found lovely children’s books, a cute ceramic coffee container, cards, notebooks, objects de art and SO much more waiting for me to come back for holiday buying!
This is THE store to experience the best of the best merchandising and displays showing fine quality products. Forsythea creates a joyful experience to wander and feel happy in support of the community merchants. I can hardly wait to return!

Liked the store and the selection of goods was good.. Some gentle feedback: I purchased a collapsible cup for a stocking stuffer - the price sticker was on the top and it was nearly impossible to remove the glue, and the price was written on the box…not so good to have to black out the price.

I love shopping at Forsythea! They have so many great options for gifts, things for the home, and other great little finds. Perfect for that last minute gift! The staff is always friendly and helps me find whatever I'm looking for, even if they don't carry it. Can't wait to go back!

The vibes in this store are unmatched. I always come here to buy a card for birthdays and holidays. They have a neat selection and they aren't your basic cards. They are priced I think at $6, but for the uniqueness of them they are worth it. The service has always been good and the staff is attentive and welcoming. Love coming here when in Astoria.

If you're looking for unique, whimsical gifts and things for your home, Forsythea in Astoria is a MUST-STOP SHOP!!! We were on vacation and having jam-packed days. Forsythea was one home decor shop in Astoria that I wanted to visit. I must've "google eyed" the website, bc I saw they closed at 5:30 (wrong). They close at 5. As I approached the door, I saw the classy owner locking up...sigh. She could've easily pretended she didn't see me, but we made eye contact. I turned on my begging pose, and she soooo kindly unlocked the door. She was warm and welcoming and never made me feel rushed. I found wonderful gifts there...cool, cozy socks, locally made coffee cups, beyond cute stickers and zipper pouches. I can't remember the owners name, but thank you, God Bless you and may your business thrive. And shoppers, PLZ support local!

I love this shop and took my cousin from California twice while she was visiting because she was thinking of a purchase which she eventually made but the clerk was rude. As we walked out my cousin said “. If I didn’t want that so bad, I’d have walked out.” I agreed. Come on people be nice if you want business!
