I met Akill this weekend when my husband, son and I stopped by his shop. What a beautifully displayed shop. Even the smell of the shop was so pleasant, not musty and stuffy like most shops. My son purchased a metal sign and I some specialty soap. The lemongrass soap and the other green soap. I forget the name. The smell of the soaps was so soothing. I exchanged my connection to the lemongrass one with Akill. Akill is such a knowledgeable, interesting, and kind man. I did not meet his wife but I read that she designed the layout of the shop. I’m sure she is just as interesting as he is. The short time we spent chatting he made us laugh, smile and travel the world looking at his collection. He took his time to explain some of his cherished findings and we loved listening to the background and history. I wish I could have bought more. Maybe another time. I am so glad we stopped in and believe I should share good experiences. We hear so much bad in the world. I like to highlight the good. So if you find yourself in the area stop by and walk through his shop and look at all the beautiful pieces he has collected.
Thank you so much, Christine! The pleasure was all mine, I truly enjoyed walking through the store with you and your family and showing you our collections. We hope to see you again in the near future, and let us know if you liked our soaps!

I was browsing the pictures the shop posted on facebook. I saw a small hutch with upper glass doors. It is exactly what I want to store my colorful fabrics in.

This shop definitely had interesting items. I kind of felt like I was in a museum. However, everything in the shop is in the hundreds of dollars range. Nothing is within the standard range thar I've experienced when antiquing all over the country and coasts. I did enjoy the French music that was playing, but all in all I'd skip this stop our next time through as it just wasn't for us.
