We never seem to leave The Art of Simple empty-handed. It's one of those wonderfully quirky shops where every shelf is packed with fun finds, unique gifts and little treasures you didn't know you needed until you spotted them.
What to Expect When You Visit
Half the fun is simply wandering. Every shelf is filled with unique pieces that make you stop, smile or think, "I know exactly who would love this." From whimsical home décor to beautiful gifts and everyday pieces with personality, there's something new to discover every time you visit. We usually walk in with no particular plan and somehow leave with a bag in hand.
Things to Know When You Visit
Located in the heart of Seaside's Central Square, The Art of Simple is an easy stop while exploring the town's shops and restaurants. We'd plan a little extra time here because there are too many fun details to take in on a quick lap around the store. Pair your visit with a stop at Modica Market or grab a coffee before wandering through the square.
Insider Tips

- Give yourself time to browse. There are fun little finds tucked into every corner of the store.
- Don't skip the home collection. We've found everything from beautiful serving pieces to pieces that always spark conversation.
- Pair your visit with a coffee, lunch or a stroll through Seaside's Central Square.
- If something catches your eye, grab it. Many items are from small makers and may not be there the next time you visit.
