Thick As Thieves was started by myself and my wife, Samantha Caltagirone. We packed up everything we owned and moved from the Midwest to beautiful Palm Springs, California to open our first brick and mortar boutique store in early 2017. With a little budget and a lot of creativity, we created a highly curated shop of handmade goods, gifts, clothing, oddities and unique finds that blend industrial, primitive, modern and global styles.

In December 2019, our store was named 1 of 50 Best Home Stores in America by House Beautiful Magazine. We’ve been honored to be included in Goop’s Travel Guide, Joanna Gaines’ Magnolia Journal, Los Angeles Times, Women’s Health and numerous other features.

In October 2021, we opened a satellite store in Yucca Valley, CA that focused on desert dwellers visiting Joshua Tree National Park.

In February 2022, we opened Little Thieves in Palm Springs, CA. A boutique kids store inspired by the desert and serving as the “mini” version of our flagship store.

In June 2022, we opened Little Thieves in San Francisco inside the infamous Ferry Building. We brought a piece of Southern California up to Fog City for all of the little visitors making their way through the historical site.

From the beginning, our goal has always been to create a space that feels warm, comforting and inviting just like our own home. From the products we make ourselves, to the overall experience, we made sure that our shop was a true representation of the kinds of things we care about and want in our lives.
