You need to update your store hours on website. Went by Saturday and Thursday afternoon only to find you were closed. The sign W&B sign was on sidewalk, but wasn't open. No online presence which is sad.

I love this store. It is special. There is always something I just HAVE to have, even when I am going there for a gift or for a client. There is so much to choose from, and I always find the perfect thing there. Christmas time is even better - such unique gifts. I am amazed at the good pricing as well. I am also impressed with the quality service I have gotten every time. just the right amount of help, amazingly just when I need it.

Wow this store has some amazing pieces of unique furniture, jewelry, candles and beautifully displayed art. The shop itself is just a pleasure to walk through. The back patio is my favorite part because of what they have for sale but the beauty of the front of the shop is not to be missed. This is the place to go to for finding unusual gifts or a conversation piece for any home.

It's always fun to visit this store. The owners constantly feature new one-of-a-kind furniture pieces. I visit from time to time just to get home decorating ideas. Their eye for tastefulness can hardly be matched. Great place!
