And today marks the end of our regular hours for season 2025-2026!!! From now until spring — open Thursdays only, 10-4. Please stop by on Thursdays and say hi ☺️

A little end of season note:

My fourth season running the shop is in the books! The beginning was rough, a major learning curve, many obstacles, and lots of adjusting. While this last year has had its challenges, mostly external with tariffs etc., I am so proud to say this was a very smooth sailing season in terms of the day to day. I attribute this to our excellent staff, and a sales floor team that impresses me every day (especially in high season, when it’s pure chaos, no one has had enough coffee, everyone is hangry, and nothing seems to be going right…) with their ability to get it all done and have a great sense of humor doing it. The shop would not be what it is without the staff we have.

This team navigated an entire point of sales system upgrade, learning it all from scratch again literally on the day we opened for the summer. We dealt with ALL of our inventory coming in at once (see photos…🤣), and got it processed and on the floor as quickly as possible in less than ideal conditions due to tariffs and product availability from European companies. All of this while also delivering the best customer service we possibly can! Very grateful for this group of women who have become close friends. I wouldn’t want to laugh my way through chaos with anyone else.

As this season closes, we are headed to Atlanta this week for the buying show for summer 2026 - and it all starts over again!!!

Lastly, THANK YOU to our loyal customers and those who make efforts to continue to shop from small businesses. We are so grateful. We will continue to work to bring the best of the best to NEH for you!
