Confession time......I pretend that these shop posts are for all of you, but if I were to be totally honest I'd admit that they're also for me. You see, normally I'm not much of a shopper, but when it comes to Christmas I'm a full fledged addict. I can't get enough. That is especially true when it comes to all the shops I've selected for this series. It also explains why after collecting Christmas chotskies for over 38 years, one would assume I've collected my fill, reached my quota, have everything I could ever need or want. Well, notsomuch. For us Christmas-a-holics, there's no such thing as enough, just like good chocolate and I know some of you can relate to that. Today I visited two more of my favorite sources for feeding my addiction and I think everyone of you will 'get it' after my posts.
Today's post, Part VII in my 2016 series, features one of my repeat regulars, Schuyler Pond, now Schuyler Pond at Scallions. You may remember Schuyler Pond from back when it was located inside a huge, fabulous barn on Route 29, but these days it's located inside of a teeny, tiny shop nestled inside of the Scallions Restaurant building in the city of Saratoga Springs. While the space is just a fraction of their previous location, Amanda Crames, is a genius at using every square inch of space - both lateral and vertical - to optimally pack as much goodness into her shop as possible. And she does it with flare and style! Besides being a great place to find the most unique and unusual holiday decor, Schuyler Pond is also a great place to find the most unique and wonderful gift items as well.
