A Huge Merci!

(Cafe Lalo in Manhattan, featured
in the movie "You've Got Mail")



Thank you Thank you to all our loyal customers (and first timers!) who shopped with us on Black Friday and Small Business Saturday and made these days a MONUMENTAL success for us!!
We truly believe locally owned shops such as ours can keep our city thriving and offer an exciting, must-see destination to visitors as well as Phoenicians.
Our local shops and restaurants will always differentiate us from any city in any state in this country. You'll most likely find a Pottery Barn or Ikea, but not a Paris Envy, or Figs, or Rust & Roses!

"Do you want to get off the subway at 72nd and Broadway and not even know you're in New York City?" (Kathleen Kelly to a crowd outside her shop protesting the opening of Fox Books, a corporate mega-store, in the wonderful movie "You've Got Mail")


And now onto other things!
The holidays are upon us here at the shop, in the form of box after box arriving -- ornaments, tableware, gifts and home decor goodies. You really must stop in to find that perfect something!

A little sneak peek...
