While everyone else is celebrating with fireworks...
Aunt Matilda recommends celebrating with a little adventure.

While rearranging the attic today, we discovered that Aunt Matilda owned far more top hats than any reasonable person should.

They've taken over the fainting sofa for the time being.

If you're in historic St. Augustine this weekend, stop by and see what else she's been hiding.

"You have $20 and five minutes inside Aunt Matilda's attic. What treasure are you taking home?"

Aunt Matilda never cared much for the main road.
She preferred hidden passages, secret gardens, and places that rewarded the curious.
If you find yourself wandering St. George Street this week, keep an eye out for the Hidden Corridor.
Follow it to the end and you may discover steampunk treasures, peculiar gifts, literary oddities, and a few surprises Aunt Matilda left behind.
Some adventures begin with simply opening the right gate.

Sherlock Holmes said, "You see, but you do not observe."
Hidden in this display is one item that definitely does not belong in Victorian London.
Can you spot it?

Forecast inside Aunt Matilda's: 100% chance of finding something delightfully strange.

Victorian skirts are back in stock, the curiosities are multiplying, and the Hidden Corridor is waiting.

If the weather turns gloomy, come browse someplace wonderfully peculiar.
