Spring is here!


Happy spring, everyone! The sun is streaming in at the new location. Since spring is here, all our winter accessories are 50% off. There is still a great selection of hats, scarves, and gloves. 

We have now been open for three weeks and the space is coming together well. You should see all the cool new goodies we got in since the move. There are beautiful new tiles from Motawi and new canvases from Erin Smith. We also have some new jewelry on display in a case Nikos gave us.

A great big "Thank You" to all the well wishers we have come to see us so far. Please come in to say hi and check out our new digs. And don't forget that today is 3rd Friday!

Unpacking!


Here is Hilary, hard at work unpacking and hanging our cool switch plates. We are trying to get all those pesky boxes unloaded and all those beautiful goodies displayed. It is all coming together nicely — so we are going to open our doors to show off our progress. We may not have everything up on the walls yet, but new shipments are already displayed and there is a lot to choose from. We even have a big wall mirror now so you can check out how you look in our new scarves. And speaking of scarves, all winter acessories are 50% off. With the new spring and summer goodies on the way, we need to make space.

Please come in just to say hello and to check out the new digs. Jackie did an amazing job with the colors.

Don't forget: the new location is at 35 S. Broadway, just a block south of Main Street in Tarrytown. There is a parking lot right next door, and we will have three designated spaces in the back as soon as we can get signs hung on the fence.

Our number is the same so feel free to call us at 914-631-3355.

See you soon!

Moving on up!

We are now in the nitty-gritty of moving. Our old location is now closed and we are working hard to get everything moved up the hill and around the corner to our new location at 35 S. Broadway in Tarrytown. It's a cool brick-and-white house known as the Junior League House. Our plan is to be open by the second week of March.

There are lots of new goodies on the way into the new location too. We will keep you posted on our re-opening date.

The "Lighten Our Load" sale continues!

The moving sale continues with at least 30% off on everything in the store. Come by today and check out the amazing selection of gifts, cards, and jewelery. There is still plenty to choose from.

Renovations on our new space are well under way. We will be moving at the end of February and time is running short. Help us lighten our load so we won't have to pack too much.
