I still remember the first time I opened the door to Daisy’s. Of course a business is not as important as your children, but a small business, especially a small retail boutique, is such an absolute expression of who you are and what you love along with much of your time (sometimes all of your […]

I am a hopeless romantic. I believe in every aspect of love the same way Anne Shirley lived every moment of her life, and Dean Martin sang about so often.  My mom spent much of my childhood looking for true love.  I was worried it didn’t really exist for years or maybe it was just in […]

Last year Home Accents Today named Daisy’s one of its 50 Retail Stars of 2010. This year they did a feature about Daisy’s and I thought I would share it with you. Here is the link: Home Accents Today, Retail Profile. I haven’t even touched the magazine yet.   Since you know my love of magazines, you can imagine […]

What do you think of the new Lollia display? A brilliant lady named Margot Elena created this truly lucsurious line of fragrances. With names like Wish, Relax, Breathe, Believe and Imagine you can’t help smile. I wanted it’s spot in the store to reflect how special it is. So I started with lovely glittered letters […]

So I have been trying to figure out why I couldn’t hit the button on blog posts.  I was really getting into it and I loved doing it.  Chatting with friends and customers is what I do all day.  It is the best part of my job. This is a great group of people to […]

Everybody has a book club.  They read books as a mechanism to visit a friends house, drink wine and eat good cheese (no offense to my many book club customers). I can’t be in a book club because I have the attention span of a gnat and most books are on the shelf by page […]
