Around the Block Gifts & Interiors

One of my favorite stores in Seattle. If you’re looking for french country inspired designs, furniture, gifts, delicate pillows, you’re in luck. I stop in as often as possible, usually for inspiration. Friendly owner, great shop design, what can I say. It’s a wonderful little space!

First sight, a well manicured shaggy dog… lounging of course, breed unkown to me… but one of those dogs that knows she’s beautiful and rather enjoys her weekly visits to the salon. That sets the tone, as you immediately sense the owners love for dogs… you’ll notice many dog inspired gifts and antiques throughout the store. Nice antiques at true antique prices, no deals to be had. But, if true antiques are what your after have at it. The owner is very helpful and will surely direct you elsewhere if she doesn’t have what you’re looking for. Cheers!
