Inside is an eclectic mix of soft knits and linen clothing, warm wool blankets, plants, decorative items, and all sorts of great gifts. Last year I got Andrew a vintage-style phrenology head sculpture for his office and a really cool shoe polishing kit for a stocking-stuffer.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0006\" href=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5610\/15735331796_78598cbc89_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0006\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5610\/15735331796_78598cbc89_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0006\" width=\"680\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0007\" href=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7516\/15139627033_f69e7d35da_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0007\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7516\/15139627033_f69e7d35da_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0007\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0010\" href=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5616\/15759044075_721747d8f7_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0010\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5616\/15759044075_721747d8f7_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0010\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love\u00a0their candles and decorative home goods.
