It was my pleasure to greet 2 couples in our Madrona store. One couple was from Seattle, the other couple was from Chicago. I learned that the Chicagoans were scouting neighborhoods in Seattle, under the tutelage of their Seattle pals. glassybaby and Madrona were hot on the compass...I love it. The fellows entered with the dames, once shopping ensued, they chose to steal away, into the Seattle Spring elements...the ladies quipped: 'It's better this way.' As a talisman, for an imminent move to Seattle, Chicago shopper bought a beautiful Seattle Sunset glassybaby. Seattle shopper and docent, plucked the loveliness of Cabo for her choice. Our much treasured Molly, was in the store with me, she was able to encapsulate their purchases like this: 'The glassybaby are magical. The Seattle Sunset means you will move to Seattle and the Cabo means you are going on a trip.' Molly perfect. Seattle Sunset and Cabo perfect.
Another great glassybaby moment was conveyed to our, gold trust, Marissa, by our, gold trust, Kari. This is priceless. Kari works in our University Village Store and has a penchant for sharing great store tales with us. This is a blog writers dream. She recently conveyed this:
'A friend was having a lousy day and her son said: "Look on the bright side Mom, you've got two great kids and LOTS of glassybaby."'
The wisdom of children knows no bounds.
Our Spring palette is beautifully set and awaiting you. Remember Mom...Mother's Day is approaching (May 9th.) My mother's Day trio would include:
- BFF (best friends forever)
- comfort
- dream
More Soon, Nicola
