“Wow. I don’t know if this place always looks like a whiskey-soaked, yellowed-from age, antique haberdashery had a baby with a stagecoach driver of an old man in long underwear and a dusty top hat. But this place is such a sepia photograph come to life that you can smell the flash bulb” Glen N.

“Tumbleweed Found is an incredibly unique, eclectic, and richly creative artistic haven in our town!! The love and the care with which absolutely everything is presented is palpable.

”Much more than a store. As the soul of the Bay Area diminishes into pottery barn beige Tumbleweed Found rises from the ashes to remind us of the importance of an aesthetic sense in our daily lives. Simultaneously, holding space for a variety of carefully curated goods that represent art, culture, science, history and a deep love for Santa Cruz. All this while not feeling untouchable or out of reach, there is a price point for everyone there. It’s a place to stoke your creative flames and pick up some amazing pieces that you will cherish daily. I’ve given several pieces as gifts and those have become treasured mementos to friends near and far.” Lea P

“One of the nicest galleries we found on a recent trip up and down the west coast. A must see. Well curated objects of art/Antiques without all the clutter. Very nice people. We hope to make it back soon.” Sonora West Trading

“Dana, the owner of Tumbleweed Found has the curiosity and passion of a museum curator and has created a beautiful, light filled space that's a pleasure to hang out in while you ponder an amazing collection of objects. I always find something there I want to know more about, who created it and who's hands it passed through...and Dana can answer these questions about the things she consigns. She helped my family with my father's estate with such care. I could not recommend her more highly for this task. She recognized the value in some objects I might have sent to the dump and was meticulous in her cataloging, also finding things of importance to our family that we were grateful not to have lost.” Adam R.

“I'd give this place 6 stars if I could. This is more than just a vintage/antique shop. Through consigning pieces from her long-time customers and through her estate sale business, Dana comes across so many interesting, one-of-a-kind items, many with a unique story to go with it. Last week she had a gold plated rotary phone that had me intrigued. Love, love this place!” Janet R.

“Simply exceptional. Part museum, curio, art gallery… but all for sale! And the proprietress is a delight” Steffani C.
