We shopgirls just got the shock of our lives. We won "Best Gift Shop" in the Beaufort Gazette's Reader's Choice Awards. Thank you to everyone who voted. This award means so much, and we are truly honored to receive it.
It gets better though ... almost every business in our beautiful Habersham Marketplace won their nominated categories. Unfortunately, we don't have all the details yet, but as soon as we do, we'll post a full list of the winners in our Marketplace.
Congratulations to all, and thank you again for your support!

Follow the footprints
So, have we told ya'll about our awesome neighbors upstairs? They're the best neighbors ever! They bring us goodies all the time (like homemade chocolate cake and macaroons -- YUM). They come and chat with us when it's quiet. They have even covered the shop for us a few times.
Well, today, they took their awesomeness to a whole new level. Inspired by the uber-talented street artist, Katie Sokoler, they decided to draw footprints leading to the shop, in honor of our inaugural "First Friday" event.
Take a look ...
And you should see the hopscotch board (is that the right term) they set up for the kids. Funnest.One. Ever.
Aren't these girls awesome? The whole family totally rocks!

Today began like every other morning for me at the shop ... until I received an email with this subject line:

Giveaway: Loo-Pourri
OK, admit it. You've seen our Poo-Pourri display in our Powder Room. And you've been tempted to buy it, because, well, nobody likes to smell that smell. But have you been too embarrassed to make the purchase? To even ask if it works?
First of all, let me assure you that it does, indeed, work. As the tagline says, "Spritz the bowl before you go and no one else will ever know!" This all natural toilet spray uses essential oils to trap the odor before it even escapes!
Since, even we might feel a little shy about purchasing something like this, we've decided to give some away. To let one of our loyal customers and readers try it before buying it. But it gets better! Along with the brand new product, Loo-pourri (scented with Grapefruit and Vetiver), we're giving away a lovely silver, refillable atomizer. That way, you can carry it in your purse without advertising what it is. Look! Isn't a pretty little gift set??
To enter, all you need to do is post a comment. Just tell us how much you love us, or something (we love getting compliments). To get extra entries, become our fan on Facebook and become a follower of our blog (we're all about the love). A winner will be chosen at random next Wednesday.

Shopgirls Picks of the Week
We're back after a brief hiatus, with two spring-inspired picks of the week.
Cheryl's Pick: BloemBoxes
Want spring? Check out these lovely BloemBoxes! Choose from a Bumblebee Garden, Hummingbird Garden, or Butterfly Garden. Or choose from a selection of edible flowers and other beautiful spring delights. All you need in one box. Biodegradable-fabric seed strips.Plant them in the ground, and watch them grow. Fabulous, right?
Allegra's Pick: Botanical Prints
Cherrio! What could be cheerier than these prints? Don't these little delights make you almost believe it's Springtime? Each time I look at these cottagey images, I get giddy for the warmer weather. And at $35 each, they're almost too good to be true.
Happy weekend, friends. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
xoxo,
Le Lapin
Aren't these dishes lovely? We're excited to be offering these beauties at 30% off. Stop in and check them out before they're all gone!
