Spending the Day in Venice Beach - Shopping Local Vendors, Sunshine and Snow Cones

My best friend and I went on an adventure in Venice Beach last week. She was on a mission to find this guy that makes wire name necklaces; luckily after 2 hours of walking up and down the boardwalk, grabbing a snow cone, getting feather hair extensions,and buying knick knacks like friendship bracelets, we found him! It’s really easy to kill time in Venice Beach, especially on the boardwalk because there’s so much to see, eat and do.

We both got our names in the 14K gold wire (I still need to take a photo of mine, and it only took about 10 minutes to get our own unique piece of jewelry! Check out the necklaces and other wire jewelry at Wire Name Mike!

On the way back to the car we found this really amazingly painted wall, which we couldn't help but take pictures in front of. When you're in the LA area, stopping by Venice Beach is a MUST...interesting and eccentric personalities parade around, art covers every nook or the boardwalk, and there's a vast amount of fun and cute things to buy(for good prices...bargain friendly), including art by the locals!
