Hello, Zinc Home + Garden

I don't believe I'll ever stop loving shops like Zinc Home + Garden in cute-as-pie Lambertville, New Jersey. I think it's the combo of smart, museum-like collections of items (oftentimes grouped in bowls -- how I love things grouped in bowls!), the smell of antiques mixed with the new (a reminder of every home of every grandmother I ever had), and the fact that, if I am at a store like Zinc Home + Garden, it is probably a Sunday, I am probably with a friend, and we are probably amped up on tea and cookies (or hot chocolate and cake, take your pick).

Get more info on the store here.

5 Shops You Should Not Ignore

Let's talk cool shops. (Because we haven't talked cool shops in a while, now have we?) Here are a few of my recent finds.

1. The Ghostly Store:

Just cool and chic. Everything is a little masculine, a little grey, white, or black with clean lines, and I dig that.

2. Daniel Emma:

Wish this one was bigger! A few choice office-y products that would look awesome on my desk (and yours, whatever works).

3. Our Shop:

The store end of "Our WorkShop" from London-based graphic designers Pui Lee and Gemma Stanton, so it offers the overall cuteness that certain designers can easily deliver up.

4. Bookbinders Design:

Just go and see if this doesn't make you squeal.

5. ODLCO:

Another small collection, but nicely curated. They even sell handmade balloons. (Handmade balloons!)
