 I've been pondering the name of the new store . . .Under The Chair,and it does have a certain "Je ne sais pas que" that keeps growing on me. The picture and logo my daughter came up with also seems to fit nicely, having that sense of antiquity yet modern elegance, you can almost hearEdith Piaf singing "Hymne À L'Amour". It wasn't until last night, however, that it all made perfect sense. We just unloaded the 2nd truck of furniture and before going home, I looked around the store and took it all in for a long moment and damned if it didn't become crystal clear! |

A customer came in the other day and, as usual, was pleasantly surprised to see the diversity and variety of merchandise atAddicTreasures. While shopping, she made comment to the quality and great prices. To us, this is not surprising, but something she said made me think. She told me that her initial impression of the beautiful 17th century building we occupy and it's classic look was that it may be one of those places with really high prices. Well, I'm here to tell you that |

That's right, you can get just about anything at the Mall - and chances are that your friends or neighbors will have it too! Have you ever been to a party, dinner affair or social occassion wearing a piece of jewelry or a fashion accessory and see someone with the exact same thing. A little disappointing and somewhat of an uncomfortable moment, don't you think? Have you been furniture shopping lately and just can't seem to find that accent piece to finish off a room? Most of the chain stores all carry the same kinds of production furniture. |

Well, it looks as if we have to end the "Name the Store" competition. We thank you all for submitting all the wonderful suggestions and we are happy to announce that WE HAVE A WINNER!!! Our daughter MaryKate came up with a logo to match the name we originally thought of and it's just to darned cute not to use. We thinkUnder The Chaircaptures that "Je ne sais pas" feeling of a certain style and grace that really does justice to the beautiful furniture we will be offering at the new store. |

I have been thinking about that questions the past few days. Let's take the name of our store, for example. When we started AddicTreasures, someone asked if this is a consignment shop. The answer to that is no, no and no! Although we do have a couple of items that were given to us from estates, those are the exception to the rule. 98% of what we have is new merchandise. The nameAddicTreasures is a play on words, and a wikipedia definition would go something like this: |

We had a very interesting week and our excitement can't be contained! First, Sunday we received our initial shipment of some very beautiful furniture pieces, including a French Country Sideboard, Buffet Table, Delys Sideboard, Wardrobe with Mirror Panes and a Mahogony 4 tier Bookcase with Leaded Glass Shelf Doors. This is the debut of what will be "AddicTreasures Furniture Gallery" an expansion of our existing store in the Valley Courtyard. We are expecting a container shipment in mid-April with all kinds of unique and unusual furniture that you won't find anywhere else in this area. |

It's late Sunday night and I'm proud to say that our online store made its debut tonight. While still in the beginning stage with only a few products online, I successfully got all the "back room" set up complete and I actually bought something. Friday afternoon I was thinking to myself, ahhh - finally a slow weekend. I thought maybe I could catch a nap or two, enjoy a nice Manhattan and relax. Well, I'm here to tell you, my wife (Mrs. Boss) had other plans for me. After outlining her goal for the weekend, we both embarked on this mini-crusade. |
