What's In Store specializes in home furnishings and decorative goods bursting with warmth and personality. Sidle up to their inviting storefront and peruse an array of striking wares from vendors such as Lampe Berger, Uttermost, The Ashton Company, Surya, and more. Dimly lit tree houses can be amply illuminated with lamps starting at $40, outfits pizzazzed with fashion jewelry starting at $10, and candles saddled in a wide variety of candle holders (prices range from $5–$200). Lampe Berger fragrances and air-freshener lamps ($20–$100) are handy for masking the scents of Thanksgiving leftovers lodged in between couch cushions, while lit flowers from The Light Garden ($39–$75) are a practical alternative to roaring living-room bonfires. A helpful staff assists shoppers in picking out the perfect items to accentuate homes with fetching furnishings as opposed to a collection of hissing polecats.

Color Me Mine puts paintbrushes and pottery in the mitts of customers old and young. Budding Toyozo Arakawas will follow six easy steps to craft beautifully painted ceramics, first choosing a ceramic piece (most cost between $10 and $70) from Color Me Mine's selection of hundreds of seasonally changing items. After charting out the desired design from imaginative imagination, painters will select an underglaze from Color Me Mine's cast of more than 50 colors, then apply paint with the focus of a peregrine falcon occupied by a Rockwellian spirit. Color Me Mine handles all kiln-firing work, allowing clients to take home their final products within three to five days. A studio fee of $6 for children (12 and under) and $10 for adults covers all paints, supplies, glazing, and firing.
