Setting The Stage For Summer

Our French Market and summer kick-off party last Saturday was beaucoup fun under the sun!

The entire shop has been decked out in chic coastal décor with aqua playing the leading role and sea glass and shell art as it’s under-studies. Supporting players are always key to any project! We are definitely ready for our summer close-up.

Outside, the French flea market was a bustling affaire with an enthusiastic crowd enjoying the huge variety of vintage wares.

Many thanks to Ortega’s Cantina for their delicious street tacos and tamales and for adding so much pizzazz to this event. Be sure to check out their beautiful, new expansion on our block.

Also kudos, to Cheryl Graf of Point Loma Tea for her fabulous array of fruited ice teas that taste as beautiful as they look. Her adorable shop in Liberty Station is growing by leaps and bounds ~ make sure and pay her a visit.

Here comes summer 2013 ~ and we’ve got just the décor for it.

Come and dive in ~!
