We couldn’t find out exactly how long this new piercing studio and fine jewelry storefront had been open but walking past it was new to our eyes and their yelp reviews only date back a few months so we imagine they are very new to this space. Ahimsa which if looked up in the dictionary […]
It’s been so lovely for so long we were bound to run into a week like this one. Rain is in the forecast Monday through Friday and if today is an example of what’s to come, planning outdoor activities is not recommended. Good thing there is plenty to do indoors and we’ve got some ideas! […]
The cute little clothing boutique at 302 Court Street, Neda, is closing it’s doors after 11 years in the Cobble Hill community. It’s very sad to hear but our mood was raised to learn that their store in Park Slope will remain open. The last day will be June 3oth on Court and in the […]

They not only sell adorable items but they also support local designers, artists and makers. So whenever we get word that they are having an event, which they often hold on special […]
The corner storefront at 244 Smith Street in Carroll Gardens was occupied by Brooklyn Bead Box a short time ago. They were having 90% off sales at the end of June and we saw the brown paper covering the windows not so long ago. It seems as though the new shop, Born, went up overnight. […]
