New Orla Kiely bags at the shop!




















Fun & functional, these totes, purses and messengers are vinyl fabric with the classic "stem" print! We were expecting the fall bags to actually come in the fall, but they're here early!

An anniversary




















Roses are pink
Ivy is green
It went by in a blink
We're turning nineteen

Brimfield















A favorite seasonal marker is the May Brimfield antiques fair.
We made it through another winter, and out the other side to spring!
Cruising the main street of Brimfield on the first day is an intoxicating spew of
possible treasures, junk, traffic, characters, shoving, sunburn, carnival food,
and the pure joy of being outside - rummaging.

Mother of all Mothers





















Father's day is admittedly a little tricky for us. But Mother's day? We've got it in the bag.

We will be open for last minute Mom shopping today, Friday and Saturday from 10 to 6. And Sunday from 11 to 5!
