Mother's Day in January

2010-01-20T10:06:00.000-06:00

The Empty Nesters are shopping this week, Mama Birds are helping junior leave the nest with the right stuff. Some are refeathering soon-to-be empty spaces at home. A good chest of drawers and some classic lamps are the items of choice this week. It's a pleasure to help our longtime regulars get the next generation off to a good start in their new homes.

A few customer comments say it all:

"My mama told me 'buy the best you can afford and it will last you a lifetime.'"

"We just went to Ikea. That stuff is disposable."

"A good classic chest with nice lines won't go out of style and you can use it anywhere."
