So once again I’ve been horribly neglectful of the bloggy, but not of the store and finding tons of fun new things to fill it! Last week was the Gift Fair which is pretty much my most important trade show of the year for non-clothing items. And let me say, it may have been the [...]
I wanted to show off a little craftiness that I’ve been working on. I had been stickering the store’s shopping bags and while they looked pretty great, it definitely gets pricey to have nice glossy stickers printed up.
I found this great resource for custom rubber stamps and they make just about any size and ship [...]
Ah, springtime in the Catskills, tis a glorious thing.
And to celebrate this lovely pocket of hills and green things, I just got these awesome totes in from MAPTOTE
and look, Woodstock even gets a little somtin’ special to denote its innate hippyness
and by hippyness i of course mean awesomeness.
Just $15 and although I’ve got lots right [...]
What an amazing week this has been here in Woodstock! The weather has been unreal, sunny, warm, hot even! I’ve been so happy to have my hands in the dirt this week at home getting my veggie garden prepped and a new bed for cut flowers going.
In-store, the latest news is, there’s a SALE going [...]
I was reminded today that I have neglected to post any blog updates here in quite some time. I’ve been posting to the tumblr blog pretty regularly, but since that’s just images, videos and links, without much in the way of store info, I suppose it was about time to give this bloggy some attention.
So [...]

What a joy to see the wonderfully put together Hudson Valley guide posted on Design*Sponge today! I had been thinking for quite some time that our neck of the woods was about due for a D*S guide and I’m so thrilled that Raina Kattelson took on the not-small task, and did it beautifully. I was [...]

So I know I promised a full ecommerce site by October and to post more frequently. I have failed on both counts and feel terrible for doing so. However, the reason for the delay on the ecommerce site is that I’m holding out on building the site until I have a full POS (point-of-sale) system [...]
I’m in the planning stages of some major styling changes in my living and store environments. The store is getting a mini-makeover in the next few weeks. Nothing that involves hiring a contractor or anything, but some additional display areas and a few decorative/installation ideas that I’m playing around with. The “bones” of the store [...]
but I am making a personal commitment to return to blogging and toward the goal of having a full ecommerce site for the store rolling in the next 6-8 weeks. This first 4 (almost 5!) months in the new location have been amazing and have only helped to reinforce the goals and plans I have [...]
