I missed talking to you.  Maybe you could have reminded me how crazy it would be to open a store in the middle of a recession.  It’s been a few months now and I finally have time to process all the changes.  Funny, we simply moved across the street from our loft office/showroom but it feels like we moved into a whole new town.  After years of being in the Fur District we’re finally meeting all our Furrier neighbors.  But it was our own recent fur aquisitions that really made us neighborly…..enter my Min Pin Mutt rescue, Rambo and Raquel’s, French Bulldog, Benson Froggly.

I have a feeling we will be carrying dog beds soon.  My cement sofa is sufficing as dog-lounger now but it’s not quite right.  The GreenGrids nestled into the deck in the middle of the store are now hiding more than a few dog bones!  No extra charge!

So come on by and bring Spot, Rambo and Benson,will be happy to show you and your mom or dad around.

If you love gardens but live in an apartment or condo without an inch of land to your name fear not. I have made it my mission to find the coolest stuff you don’t have to water, fertilize or take care of in any way. I have always been a big proponent of using garden accoutrement to indoors. My own living room has a life size cast stone statue of a goddess of the garden peaking over my modern olive green curved armless sofa. Not only is it beautiful and whimsical, it takes away some of my resentment that the only greens growing in my backyard are the weeds creeping throught the cracks in the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel.

Some of my favorite things are the aluminum dragonfly and ginko leaf trays made from recycled hubcabs! How fun are they?
