I just spent the weekend ambling all over New York City searching for little treasures...and can't wait to get to work on some new baubles this week!
My first (and ultimately favorite) stop was Tender Buttons. What a magical place! After reading some not-so-nice reviews online, I must say I was really WOWed once I found it. The shop is very petit and quaint...and the atmosphere is like a library and museum in one. I was in love immediately...and was hesitant to even post this find because I really want this place as a secret all to myself!
The reviews had mentioned rude staff members, but let me tell you...the only attitudes I encountered were coming from two different customers. "Can't you MATCH a button for me?!" was a comment from one lady who was running one clerk all over the place, pulling out box after box. I'm sorry - if you can't match buttons to a white blouse on your own what does that say about you??
Wait until you see what I whip up...check RiRiFisch.etsy.com this week and next!
Another place I cruised was the flea market in Hell's Kitchen! I did get a little handful of unusual goodies there as well.
The rest of the time was, of course, spent eating (YUM!) and showing my husband all of the places I would be willing to live if he wants me to move to the city.
