Alexandria’s Place

Cute, cute, cute! Yep, they have some cute stuff in their tiny, little shop. Practical? Well, depends on you’re idea of practical…
Definitely a gift shop for the fanciful friend whom you have no idea what to get for them. They have great glass teapots, African baskets, bath soaps in the shape of chihuahua’s and robin eggs (my favorite thing there). They also sell Earthworks lotions and soaps in fun flavors like Pistachio and Pure Rose.
Their kids stuff is really cute – was a big fan of the socks and the super soft, cuddly stuffed animals. Oh, and they have these sleepers that are like sleeping on stuffed animal with little cuddly arms you can wrap around the kid (so it’s an embrace). Reminded me of the boyfriend pillow from Japan where it has an arm attached to it so it feels like you’re being spooned… don’t knock it, it’s a great idea!
The store is nice, a bit expensive and has really short hours, only open 4 days a week. They must work with private clients a lot because I was the only one in there while they were open.
