As a business owner I hold several events for our employees during the year as well as attend a number of functions that support programs or charities that I participate in. Finding items and gifts that are not the usual things that one might purchase was becoming difficult.

I wanted something different, special. I was so glad to discover a new and unique shop where I could find gifts for my employees, furnishings for my office, and items to donate to silent auctions for fund raising. Your store is beautiful and full of the most wonderful and special items. Your selection of furniture, lamps, paintings, statues, and gift and accesory items is amazing.

A most memorable item was a very large portrait of Abraham Lincoln that was displayed in a very elegant and nobel frame. The function was for The Associated Builders and Contractors Organization. There were over three hundred people at the event and I donated the portrait for a silent auction to support craft trade education. The portrait became the center piece of the event held at the Grandover Resort in Greensboro, NC. Everyone was standing around it and made so many wonderful comments about the quality of the workmanship and how elegant and grand it looked. People were walking up to it all night long. There were many bidders and at the end of the auction it was purchased for much more than I would have thought.

Thanks for your help in selecting such a special gift. I could not have done it without you. Connie and Denice, you are both so talented and professional. You really care about your customers and your attention to each one is just one example of your genuine and excellent service.

I will see you soon and thanks again.
