Annie’s Blue Ribbon General Store A Modern General Store where Fun and Function reign supreme
Hooray!! Our adorable Fishbowl Pendulum Wall Clock by Modern Moose is featured in Every Day with Rachael Ray’s Holiday Gift Guide, and we couldn’t be more excited! Pick up your own copy and find us on page 106. Handmade in Massachusetts, this clock will add a pop of color to any room and be loved by kids and adults alike. We have to agree – this is an AWESOME gift! $45
Thanksgiving is just nine days away!! We’ve started making our grocery lists and thinking of what would make the BEST hostess gift. We love this “Giving Thanks” guest book. As holiday guests arrive, have each one sign their name and write what they are most thankful for this season. It won’t take long for this book to be filled with memories. The greatest gifts are those you will keep forever.
It’s almost time to start thinking about your calendar for 2015! (Scary, we know!) Calendars make great holiday gifts and we have an amazing selection. One of our favorites is this DIY Gemstone Geometry calendar by Heather Lins. Each month has a different gemstone printed on paper that shimmers with gold. Use the embroidery thread and follow the dots around each stone. The result is a fun project and beautiful calendar rolled into one! $25
Is your inbox full of Costume Party invites?! ‘Tis the season to dress up and have fun, however, we find that we don’t always have time to make an elaborate costume. We love our Doll-Eye glasses – they’re an instant hit and an instant costume. When you move your head, the eyes appear to open and close just like a doll. Creepy?! Nope, totally cool. All that’s left to make your doll look complete is a pinafore dress and a pair of Mary Janes. $8.50
The official Valentine’s count down has begun!! We love this pillow by Alexandra Ferguson, a local Brooklyn company. Sometimes you just want to get down to business and forget all of that “talking”. Next Friday, show that special someone how you really feel…
We are SO excited to have a flower pop-up in the shop on February 14th from 2pm – close! Our amazing florist friend, Valerie Strait, will be in the shop making gorgeous arrangements to complete your Valentine’s shopping. Stop in and get everything you need!! We guarantee you’ll have one happy valentine!
Nothing could be sweeter than this book by Sandol Stoddard Warburg; made complete with illustrations by Jacqueline Chwast. This is the perfect Valentine’s Day gift, no matter what the age. Rightly put, this “is the book that Romeo would have given Juliet, Charlie Brown would have given Snoopy” and you can give to someone close to you.
We are SO excited for Valentine’s! And it’s only one month away! To help you get ready for the day of love, Ebony Snow Chafey, Creative Director of Snow + Graham, will be at the shop on February 1 to teach us how to make origami hearts! If you are in the neighborhood, we hope to see you here at 10am for some serious fun!
Back by popular demand!! We LOVE this brightly colored travel mug! That pop of pink and red is sure to make you smile all winter through. We also think the quote “Cold Hands, Warm Hearts” is quite fitting. This is the perfect gift for your BFF. It’s also perfect for you! Fill with 16oz of your favorite warm beverage and get ready to battle the cold. I’m already looking forward to my morning commute!
