Bonjour Burien - the T-shirt!

Your new summer uniform!

Bonjour Burien - the T! We love this cool, light-weight t-shirt! Goes with just about everything and shows off our local love with a flair! This is the final accessory to our mosaic tile door mat, front window statement and shopping bag (from our opening day)!

Why "Bonjour Burien"? Good question, 'cause we ain't French ;). Back when we were designing our shop Alicia found an Instgram post with the tile mat, "Bonjour New York" from a fancy NYC boutique. Of course we naturally thought, "why not Burien?". Kind of silly but we loved the fancy/funny vibe. So how do you get a "Bonjour Burien" mosaic tile door mat? If you're Alicia you say, "mom, you can make it" ??? So with a bit (large bit) of help from husband/dad, we actually did it!! Amazing what can be done when told you must do it!

We hope you'll love wearing the new t-shirt as much as we do. They are a fitted t-shirt and they run on the small size. Best to size-up!

Mother's Day

Find just the right card for mom, grandma, sis...

Mother's Day is this Saturday, May 9th! As a mother, daughter, grandmother and card shop owner, I can say unequivocally that the very most important part of Mother's Day is a really amazing card ;)! Also, it's pretty wonderful to spend time with my family or maybe enjoy a nice phone conversation. A thoughtful gift is the frosting on the cake! Let us help with the card and the gift part.

You can still choose from a great selection of cards to make mom know that she is special to you. We are especially proud of the selection of gifts we have in stock this year. We always buy the things that we want to own ourselves!

Aloha bags - functional and fashionable!

Aloha splash-proof tote bags just speak of summer! We have great selection of designs. These roomy bags are perfect for the beach, travel and carry-on. The only tough part is choosing which one style you love the most!

Speaking of a tough decision, try picking your favorite among the stunning designs for kitchen tea towels by Geometry! The beauty here is not just skin deep. These super-absorbent micro fiber towels are made from two recycled water bottles! Good for your mother, good for mother nature!

Pop-Up Saturday

We are loving using our classroom space to shine a light on some creative makers that live right here, in and around Burien! This week we are excited to see the space fill up with the sparkle of gold, silver and gems - the beautiful work of the very creative jewelry designer, Tiana Manola! She will be joining us on Saturday, October 24 from 11:00 am until 3:00 pm. Tiana always surprises us with stunning new designs for earrings, necklaces, bracelets and more! This is a great time to see a really nice selection of her work and choose some special gifts (maybe even for yourself)! Bring a friend and enjoy some (safe) retail therapy!

We will be social distancing (with masks) using our door to the outside for potential line-ups.
