Introduction
Hi friends!! My name is Wendy, and I manage a cute little boutique in my hometown of Menasha, Wisconsin. We carry an array of items from World’s Softest Socks, Judy Blue Jeans, Farmhouse Fresh skin care, enewton jewelry, Nora Fleming, Inis and SO much more!!
When you enter the door at 850 Racine Street, we want to make sure you feel welcome. From the scents and sounds to the textures and colors. Everything works together to ensure you feel at peace, have fun and most importantly- enjoy your time.
My goal is to use this blog space to share new products, style tips, and any random thoughts that pop into my head. Kind of like you are shopping with me in store, but from the comfort of your home. But if you know me, that could change from week to week;)
So there you have it. Welcome to the blog. Let’s see where it goes!!!
The Holidays
I was chatting with a customer about home decor. This year has been exceptionally different with many tossing out the old and moving to more of a winter theme- snowflakes, deer and trees of all different styles. Done in more neutral colors with pops of green, red, silver and gold. Classic, understated, timeless.
The store is set with twinkling lights, votives and candles to create a peaceful and calm ambience. Natural textures of wood, iron and glass abound. It really is a magical time of year!!
Then we got to the age-old question- what do I need to complete the look in my home? How do I remember from year to year what I have?
We both had a version of the same idea- take pictures!! On my personal phone I have photos of the key places I decorate in my home from season to season. The mantle, shelving, dining area etc. This really serves two purposes: 1) when I am shopping and see something out of season, I can check my pictures to see if I have a place for it or want to replace something and 2) help me set up with ease knowing things are just the way I want them.
I have also seen it done where people will put printed photos on the totes, they store the decor in. This helps quickly locate items and also reminds you how it was set up.
So, friends, there you have it- my solution to help you keep track of what you have!!
