i heart ny

i'm back to report that the whole experience was amazing! everything was just how you'd imagine it. it was like being in a real life magazine. now i need a craft room that looks like martha's, right now everything's on the living room floor. martha would not approve.

highlights:
tinsel trading co. - vintage and new ribbons, trims, flowers, nicknacks, i wanted one of everything in here.
paper presentation - papers, stationary, craft supplies, everything you could think of.
moomah - cafe for the budding artist, kid's parties and crafts, super cute decor, delicious smoothies.
kate's paperie - papery goodness of every kind.
dean & deluca - sophisticated grocery store, i wanted two of everything in here (i was hungry).
john derian co. - unique gifts and trinkets, unusual, expensive, and super cool. (martha was in there shopping two days earlier).
anthropologie - clothing & home, could the store displays be any more off the charts? how do they come up with this stuff?


i didn't make it to dylan's candy shop, i ran out of time. i have to catch it next time i go. what are your new york faves?
