wonderful wednesday :: feature items






sometimes, a customer will wander into the shop and quip something like... "you just have a little bit of everything in here, don't you?". i nod & smile and think about the odd comments i've gotten over the years.

no one prepared me for that, you know?... the full & different personalities that would make their way into my life through the shop. i never once thought about how my interactions would go when i opened. i simply thought about inventory & what i love. i guess i figured only like-minded people would stop in. i was very wrong.

here are some of my favorite quotes from random & wonderful people that leave a smile on my face:

"is this a flower shop?"

"i thought you served root beer here."

"i have an attic full of this stuff. i should open up a shop."

"tasha, get me a cup of coffee."

to shopping friend: "i'm going to wait in the car."


you'll notice, none of these are exactly compliments. but, i smile. i smile because people without a filter crack me up. and because i love my shop and have full confidence that it does make a few people out there happy too. but, as i put together these featured item collections each week, i do begin to notice that i do, really, have a "little bit of everything".
