Though Winestone, founded in 2008, is a relatively new wine shop, owner Patrick Dubsky is certainly not a novice to wines. He and the rest of the staff have a deep knowledge of wines. The shop flaunts an extensive and interesting collection of rare and affordable wines, all of which the staff are familiar with. The environment itself is stylish, welcoming, clean, organized and well-maintained. Winestone also hosts free wine tastings every Saturday.
Alisa Brennan is crazy about going green, and she does her best to fill her stationery store with eco-friendly and locally crafted goods. Whether it's a recently graduated college student selling lingerie-inspired handbags or handmade greeting cards, Brennan brings a taste of local flair to her Atrium Mall address. In addition to a unique collection of merchandise, clients can also expect a personalized experience when designing their stationery or invitations at Mark Harris Stationers.
If you're planning on attending a baby or bridal shower rather than throwing one, Mark Harris offers excellent gift items as well. Socially conscious brands such as Booda Brand and Laville Frames comfortably sit along their locally manufactured counterparts. All of Booda Brand's baby clothes are made from organic cotton. Laville Frames are created out of wood reclaimed from 150-year-old plantations and a portion of the company's proceeds help support Habitat for Humanity. It's not a large shop, but everyone knows great ideas and good things come in small, environmentally-friendly packages.
