 Loveland ,Colorado is my home and being on the creative side, I don’t get out much to shop. I’ve had a little breathing time since the holidays and found a couple of wonderful shops in the process. During my outings I chance to find Vera’s House Beautiful and Cherry Lime Boutique they have a wonderful array of items that are just my style!
Vera’s has wonderful affordable vintage décor, the quality collection of vintage chic includes: furniture, lamps, tabletop treasures, clothing, hats, jewelry and accessorie, kitchenware, wall décor and much more. I will be a frequent visitor to this shop; it’s really a joy to browse through all the rooms in this vintage house with such charm.
Cherry Lime Boutique owners Alyssa and Michelle will guide you through the creative handmade items from local artisans and crafters. If you’ve ever been to the arts and craft festivals throughout the year and wish there was a place you could go at a whim and find that special gift or item for you or your home, you’ll be amazed at wonderful offerings this boutique has housing inventory for over 55 local vendors/crafters. Bits of Yore has added some items, look for Ze Twists/Wine Stem Wraps, Zip Togs, Cell Phone Lanyards and key chains. Testing the waters – you can find some framed cat prints as well.
Shop local, save and enjoy!!
