Old St. Nick

I love this Vietri Christmas pattern so much that I decided to display it at the front door of the store! What could be more whimsical than individual portraits of Old St. Nick?  Each Santa is created from maestro Alessandro Taddei’s childhood memories of stories his mother read to him. Made of terra bianca, each portrait is painted directly on the fired surface in Tuscany so that each stroke is seen in detail.

Jan Barboglio for Partners Card

Most of you are quite familiar with Jan Barboglio...if you're not, make sure you stop in and check it out!  Forged by hand in Mexico and finished in the age old process, each piece conjures the magic of another age. Combined with glass, silver, wood, leather and plaster, each piece is unique and completely recognizable as Jan's. Each piece is perfectly aged. No two pieces will ever be the same.

I have just put out our fabulous new shipment just in time for Partners Card on Friday!  We have the pieces shown here as well as MANY, MANY others!  And if you have a Partners Card we will be trilled to order any other item from Jan's collection that we may not have!

Hearts & Ivy - Santas and Snowmen

Just in time for the Holidays...and Partners Card, I am pleased to say that the Hearts & Ivy 2011 Collection has arrived!

Unique in its holiday charm, each piece of the Hearts & Ivy Collection is carefully handcrafted in Minneapolis, MN by designer Donna Hamilton and a team of 25 women.

Working out of a neighborhood studio surrounded by flower gardens, Donna creates her santas, snowmen, and angels from designer fabrics and carefully selected accessories.

From its beginning in 1993 with a single Christmas angel, Hearts & Ivy now includes over 70 ornament styles designed to add a touch of magic to the holiday season.

Thymes Bergamot Vert

My FAVORITE new fragrance from the awesome people at Thymes.

A leisurely afternoon spent in a Mediterranean garden, the air humid after a sudden downpour. Steam rises, intensifying the fresh sweetness of the bergamot groves nearby. For centuries, the bergamot tree has been coveted for its precious oil and the sparkling fragrance it yields. Today, this sun-drenched citrus burst is Bergamot Vert.

An enticingly bright blend combining the cold-pressed zest of radiant bergamot, luscious notes of freshly squeezed citrus and crisp balsamic cypress. Floral wisps of jasmine and fresh woody petitgrain lend sweetness and warmth, while comforting notes of plump red currant and white musk subtly tantalize. 

We've got this wonderful collection in all of your favorite items: Body Lotion, Body Wash, Bar Soap and their ever popular and must have Home Fragrance Mist!

Fabulous Fall Entertaining!

I am SOOOO excited about this new collection from Star Home.  It captures an intimate moment in nature and translates it into beautifully crafted serveware.  The Bird and Branch collection has several pieces: 2 platters, a covered dish and a footed bowl that all work wonderfully for Fabulous Fall Entertaining.  Mix it with Spode Woodland or Casa-Fina Maderia Harvest and with just one or two pieces you have created an entirely new look for your Fall table!

InSideWALK Sale

How does that old saying go? "All good things must come to an end." After 32 crazy, fun-filled and often wild Sidewalk Sales, the time has come to end the era of Semi-Annual Sidewalk Sales.

While we won't be having a Sidewalk Sales anymore, let me remind you of another old saying..."Out with the old and in with the new." What's new is our fun, bargain filled treasure trove we're calling the "InSideWALK Sale"!

All of the great merchandise that we schlep out to the sidewalk twice a year will be available in our new inSideWALK Sale section...all year long. Items will be added weekly as we make room for new merchandise in the store. I've also got my eye on some fabulous closeouts from some of our great vendors to put out as well. It's going to be the place in the store you'll definitely want to check out regularly.
