Adding to the list of things I love about my new neighborhood, I discovered this great little occasional shop on 50th. Heidi acquires well-preserved, unique treasures like the adorable Salty and Peppy shakers now at home in my kitchen. Only open on weekends, Bleu Velvet Vintage is one of several occasional shops in the Nokomis neck of the woods so I'm envisioning a happy trek with my Mama to check them all out.
I also picked up a pretty pair of floral prints from the 60s, perfect for my bedroom wall. At $32 for the pair, they're likely cheaper than whatever I could have bought at Target, and they've got character to spare. Win! You can keep in the loop on hours and events by liking Bleu Velvet's facebook page. They'd be a great place to pick up unique Christmas gifts.
