Hi all! Good news! My surgery was a big success and I am back at the store today and hope to come in next week during usual hours, noon to 5 pm. That said, you should try to stop by a little later than noon in case I'm running late and you can always call the store to be sure we are open. 525-5084.
Thanks for all your well wishes!

Dear Customers,
As many of you know, I will be having knee replacement surgery on Sept. 2. Consequently, the store will be closed for a few weeks, starting Sept. 1.

I'm hoping to be able to be back by the week of Sept. 26 but that is probably overly optimistic so plan accordingly! If you need greeting cards, pocket agendas, Kate Libby (or Abacus or Linnea) poster/desk calendars, Lily Pulitzer agendas, boxed stationery, or anything else, please come on over by Wednesday, August 31st.

You are welcome to email me any time at [email protected] if you have any questions.

I will miss you all! ❤️
Denise
