Tapestry Rose is a fabulous little gift shop located in the old train station in Rocky Hill…read more I walked in there today to stumble on the most wonderful array of gifts and trinkets for that someone that has everything. There are glass vases, picture frames, unique bookmarks...handbags, martini sets, salad sets etc. There are beautifully decorated Christmas Trees with all of the gorgeous ornaments (some glass blown) available for purchase. There is a section with gifts for children, a selection of fabulous music, and a unique array of handmade jewelry. What I liked most is that some things benefited a group or a cause if purchased. This is a great little gift shop that I know I'll visit several times this holiday season.

I can't say enough about the owner who not only helped me select the dress, but shoes, earrings, and a clutch to complete the outfit.

After arriving in the very cute and little town of Chester, the first business on Water Street is…read moreLark. Lark is a woman's boutique, they sell quality sweaters, purses and other cashmere and wool accessories. There are so many other little accessories, like unique fair trade earrings, and hair accessories. They also have a whole assortment of decor for your home or your Christmas tree. These are my favorite. From little knit bears to a not so little wooden deer. The little knickknacks are truly so unique and equally as adorable. What else is adorable? They have a baby section at Lark. From the tiny holiday dresses, to the softest plushies, and so many toys and books. The one reason I can't give five stars to Lark is the cost, everything is a pretty penny here. If you're looking for cashmere gloves, or some moon and star earrings, this is your place.

It's set in a charming historic house right in the center of Glastonbury; it doesn't get much nicer than that. The store truly has a little bit of everything: earrings, socks, decorations, candles, mugs--you name it. For my taste, the selection was not really for me, but others might love that classic, cozy style. I have to say, the highlight was an adorable employee--on the shorter side, a bit shy, but absolutely adorable. ( Corgi ) Overall, it's a cute local spot with lots to browse.

I was spending a few days staying with some friends in Middletown last week and had some time to…read morekill on Saturday. What's the best thing to do when that happens? Obviously it's to check out some antique centers and the first one we checked out was Forest City Merchants. This antique centre is located inside of what looks like an old factory building and has a pretty decent amount of space. The floor itself is separated by some small walls and there's a few separate rooms throughout the building. I spent maybe twenty minutes or so wandering around without finding anything, but hey, you could go to the same antique center once a week for a year and hit the absolute biggest jackpot one week and then strike out 49 weeks in a row, so that's just what happened on this day. I did see some cool action figures and such, and luckily it didn't appear that any of the booths here had Temu garbage. Overall, Forest City Merchants was a solid antique center to walk through and certainly a place to check out if you are in the area. I'll definitely be back in the future since I'll be staying in Middletown again.
