gift-a-day #16 ... it's in the bag!

messenger bags are hot! i don't know about you, but when i'm all bundled up in the winter the last thing i want to worry about is whether my bag is going to fall off my shoulder in my slick puffy coat ... so my winter bag is always a messenger bag, it stays in place and my hands are free to carry other things (like shopping bags!).

gift-a-day #15 ... creativiTEE!

the shirt of the season. we design one limited edition t-shirt each year and they're almost gone, don't get caught with out your creativiTEE!

gift-a-day #14 ... what girl doesn't want jewelry?

these lovely baubles are made by local artisan sarah vonne. with lots of choice for both every day and wedding there's something for everyone. stop in and pick one up for your favorite girl!

gift-a-day #12 ... wash your cares away!

these soaps and lotions are by local company daub and bauble (and we do like supporting local). and the beauty is they smell as good as they look. with scents like mission fig and thyme, arriba cacao and spice, tarocco orange and clove, and sorrento lemon and ginger how can you choose just one!

gift-a-day #11 ... dress up!

this one's a bit of a departure from the usual paper/stationery items, but it's adorable none the less. we just got a crop of dresses in for the little ones, made from fun fabrics from amy butler and other fun coordinating designs. if only i had a little girl ...

gift-a-day #8 ... take note!

have you guys seen the newest amy butler journal? it's just dreamy. love the patterns and colors. and honestly, the inside is just as beautiful as the outside. add a couple of staedtler fine line markers and you've got the perfect gift for your amy butler fan.

short story ... not long after we opened the summer of '07 and couple of women came in the store and one of them said to the other something like "look, here are amy's papers, i haven't seen them in person yet". They were oohing and ahhhing when I asked them if they were familiar with amy's work? to which they replied that they both worked for her!!!! one of the women said she worked as one of her designers in ohio, and the other explained that she was the other woman's mother and that she too worked for amy, as a seamstress (in new york). so whenever you see an amy butler pattern or idea she probably sewd it. how cool is that?!

gift-a-day #5 ... stuff it!

how cute is this? my friend julie louris (of duetta , my favorite store) makes the most fabulous stockings. since julie's store closed due to water damage, i jumped on the opportunity to carry her stockings at pulp fashion. we have a nice collection and i am just so thrilled to have these scrumptous works of art to look at every day.

gift-a-day #4 - jot it down!

i'm lovin' these leather journals. what a great gift to start out the new year ... keep track of those new years' resolutions, use as a gratitude journal, keeping track of all those lists. i think any man or woman would enjoy this gift.
