The Sage House

This shop is easy to miss; but is worth a visit. Like a lot of shops of this kind, there’s a mix of items, old and new, collectible and not-​so-​much. Probably what sets this place apart is the owner, an adorable, chatty woman who talks to all her customers like she’s known them forever. During my short visit we covered the usual weather, my «accent», her son’s military experience, and, with respect to her business, her love of floral designs. She proudly pointed out the silk flower arrangements she does for special events, for general purpose wall hangings, and for wreaths and displays for parties, weddings, funerals and even as grave markers.
If you do stop by, bring cash in case you see something you like, since the Sage House doesn’t take plastic, despite the sign on the door.
