HOT OFF THE PRESS!!
We've just signed a lease on a wonderful new spot in Powell-- one that will give our customers a spacious, charming shopping venue, offstreet parking, and convenience to all the shops you like to browse in Historic Powell. Of course, we'll still be featuring original art, upscale handcrafted items, and serendipitous accessories everywhere you look!
Located at 36 North Liberty Street, the building was originally a flour mill, built in about 1890. After a bit of clean-up and updating, the site will regain some of its original look, with exposed beams, hardwood floor, and wood ceilings. The front porch will be a great place to relax after all your shopping, and the classroom will be the site for some absolutely wonderful classes!
Keep an eye on the blog for updates-- we can hardly wait for you to come shop with us on Liberty Road!

He is complete with ugly dog warts and freckles. Rascal has a lack of teeth, so he can’t keep his tongue in his mouth, and his face appears crooked at times. Owned by Actor, Dane Andrew of Sunnyvale, Ca. USA. Rascal is Ugly Dog Royalty being from a dynasty of ugly with his Mom, Grandmother, and Grandfather all who have held the title of "The World's Ugliest Dog". Rascal's Grandfather "Chi Chi" is in the Guinness Book of World Records for winning the most ugly dog contests and was undefeated with 7 ugly dog wins.

Serendip's AMY GASPARD is headed toward stardom!
The tree is formed from brown-colored copper wire, seed beads, and about 110 Swarovski crystal flowers. It's mounted on a sheet-moss covered 3 pound rock and sits in a display dome. A photo barely does justice to her meticulous work; from the complex yet elegant root system to the gently turned tree trunk, to the intricate branches touched by glimmering crystals that sparkle in the least light...
