Scenes from the Shop in Early July!

-
Hope you are all having a fabulous summer. The weather has been touch and go but the pace here at the shop has slowed down and now begins the work of cleaning, organizing and planning for the fall. Look for our listing of in store Design Workshops for the holiday seasons ahead being kicked off by our Christmas in July event on July 31st. More information on that later in the month! For now, the shop is full of gorgeous flowers and fun new gift items so I thought I'd share!
Happy 21st! We've had wine glasses for ladies now we have beer glasses for the guys!  
Ballet items sell all year round for us (must be because of the ballet studio here in the Village) so we've done a little Ballet themed display of figurines, bears, jewelry, mugs and frames!  
We love lace flower and this Green Mist is especially gorgeous this week!  
It's all about angels and girlie gift with fresh smelling candles from Aunt Sadies, teapots and cups and adorable signs for the home or garden.  
Moroccan Oil ~ scrubs, soaps, lotions and shampoos!  
Orchids from "Blooms" Farm are amazing and only $25 per bunch ~ now that really is a good deal.  
We are in love with the new line of silver mercury glass that just arrived. Design Alex also shows a very cool succulent garden in this display.  
Cranberry Viburnum Berries ~ these are over 4 feet tall!  
New ceramics arrived this this turquoise colored vase with a dahlia design on the front.
