Downtown Bellefontaine

Home, gifts, and a new bottle shop on Main Street.

Decor and gifts chosen piece by piece. Now with a wine shop inside. Worth the drive.

The shop floor: a white tufted sofa piled with pumpkins, sunflowers overhead, and shelves beyond
The fall display: a draped table heaped with pumpkins, gourds, sunflowers and maple leaves

In the windows now

Fall, at full volume.

Maple, marigold, and more pumpkins than the patch. Every corner of the shop is dressed for the season. The holiday windows come next.

SharyDuff.

Four shops downtown. One larger-than-life owner.

Shary made Queen of Hearts a destination for fine chocolate. Then she kept going: The Naked Goat, Mystic Mama, and now Cork & Cottage. Each one is dressed to the nines, every season.

“People want to shop somewhere special. People want to be treated well.”
