National Ampersand Day!

Need a little relief from the daily news loop?  Then rejoice, National Ampersand Day is for you!  This is the day that graphic designers and calligraphers look forward to all year.  We can all blatantly throw beautiful ampersands into all our correspondence without fear of over-using!  &&&  A time to get creative with a clever and helpful little shorthand for "and" & a moment to appreciate this lovely little ligature, so often overlooked!  Indulge and enjoy...sadly it's only one day!

Delightful Desk Accessories

If  you've read "The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up", you're probably already enjoying the joy and productivity that an organized desk provides.  Now add to the joy with a few carefully curated accessories.  These gold dotted goodies from Kate Spade add a special sparkle that co-ordinates with most any decor.   We are always on the hunt for functional and beautiful gifts.  A new pair of sharp scissors, simple and clean, a pretty tablet of paper and freshly sharpened pencils, and a pouch to carry the essentials are among the many desk-top items that are new in the shop!  Beautiful gold-foiled correspondence cards share your style with friends and family when you send notes of appreciation.  Speaking as a Mom, this is just the thing to make Mom happy on Mother's Day!  (hint, hint)
