I looked through them loving each one more than the next....imagining our tree with these gentle lacy ornaments bringing in the tidings for next year...
I stood there for a moment watching the artist paint doves on the front windows...wondering what it was about this store that Joel and I loved so much.
-So much of it is out of our price range
-A ton of it is fad-related and will be dated by 2010 or sooner.
-The customer service isn't what I would call superior.
Why do we love it?
I think it is because it encapsulates a love for the new and the old...vintage fabrics paired with modern jewels...canvas and twine wrapped around shiny bronze and glimmering candles...
I believe the store has done a remarkable job at creating an experience that celebrates femininity spanning from the 1920's to now. It does not put women in a place of servitude, rather it commemorates what we as women do well: create, cook, sew, decorate, and more...
So, here's to a store that I've found even more reason to love....
(Here are the ornaments I purchased-what do you think?)
