Small Business Saturday, November 25th

We are a small business and depend on shoppers like you to keep our doors open! Support small, support local year-round, but especially on Small Business Saturday.


We are open 10-4pm and will have complimentary wine as always!  Stop in and show your support, also shop our entire neighborhood where you'll find a coffeeshop, teahouse, bakery, pizza joint, a rock shop, diner, and many little boutiques just like ours.  Curious about our 'hood?

  5. Travelling can be a bit tricky if you have never really done it before, particularly in places like Europe and the UK. There are different regulations and laws to deal with and you may need to take information and items with you that you would not typically carry in your own country of residence. 출장
