Day 3: Shed a little light in your world!

...or in your home, at least! With our hand-made Tea Lights from Turkey, you can do just that. (BTW, does anyone know WHY they are called "tea lights"? I don't have a clue!!)



These whimsical terracotta tea lights work great with both "real" tea light candles and battery-operated ones (8 for $6 at Big Lots). And because they ARE terracotta, they're not limited to indoor use. When warmer weather returns you can put them on your front porch or patio with no fear of the weather doing any… Continue

Day 1: A tisket, a tasket, get a pine needle basket

OK, so I messed up and there are really only Twenty-ONE shopping days until Christmas!



But in any event, today being Day 1, we're featuring our Pine Needle baskets from Nicaragua. If you haven't been in the store since early November, you're missing a real treat.

These baskets come from El Sauce, Nicaragua and, yes, they really ARE made from pine needles.

We purchased over 30 of these in a variety of styles and they've been so… Continue

The Arnett - a "destination" on the North side of the 19th Ward

With all the "buzz" about Brooks Landing and the opening of Boulder Coffee, it's only fair to remind everyone reading this blog about another "destination" place that's still developing on the North side of the community.



"The Arnett" has been open less than a year in the building formerly occupied by Creator's Hands (332-338 Arnett Blvd). It's been somewhat slow going because the whole project has been developed entirely via private donations. Nevertheless, the building now features… Continue
