I just discovered the cutest little shop on-line and was thrilled to find out that it is local to me. It's called Vintage Chic Boutique. This is how they describe their store on their web page...
"Welcome! If you appreciate “Shabby Chic”, Cottage, French Country, Romantic, or Victorian décor, you will surely adore the unique vintage-inspired pieces we feature. Many of our items are one-of-a-kind handmade designs. Our boutique aims to add charm, elegance, and a bit of whimsy to your home and life."
I had a rare hour to myself this morning so I decided to drive on over and check them out. I had so much fun browsing and shopping (having the opportunity to browse...to really LOOK at what they had without having 4 boys in tow was a real treat, something I hardly ever get to do.).
The best part? Their prices are super reasonable. Sometimes when you hear the word 'boutique' you can almost guarantee prices will be inflated. Not so at this store. They are definitely affordable.
I was sad that the plaque I had seen on their on-line site and that I was specifically looking for had just sold out. But, the owner (at least I assumed she was the owner, and now I feel terrible for not asking her name) was very helpful, took my information, and said that she would look to see if they were still available from her supplier. Now that's customer service!
I still found a couple little items I couldn't resist picking up. AND, I decided to do a GIVEAWAY for my readers with one of the treasures I bought.
So, be sure to check back on Monday when I will officially announce my giveaway and unveil the which of the treasures you could win!
In the meantime, have a great weekend!
Looking forward to your giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI read your previous post last night and was ready to comment and even write a prayer for Joanne and then I just spent so much time on her site.
I am praying for her and her family.
God is sovereign and He knows, but it is hard to imagine what her family is going through and I just keep thinking - she is only 38!!
So, I will keep praying and if you read more on her, please keep us up to date.
Gonna go check out the online store-thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Karen, for your kind words & nod to my little shop! So sweet of you to post about us in your blog & nice meeting with you! I went shopping yesterday & unfortunately could not get the canvas. I'll keep looking for something similar & let you know if I come across anything. By the way, my mom & I co-own the boutique. We are about to celebrate 3 yrs. in March. Thanks again & hope to see you soon.
