In the meantime, bear with us as we iron out some kinks.

New Pyrrha and Satya Jewelry at Hammertown

coupon icon
Every once in a while, we find unique and wonderful companies we can relate to on many levels.  At first, we are attracted to their work....in this case, beautiful pieces of handcrafted jewelry.  Then, once we meet the artists behind the work, we realize other similar sensibilities regarding the way our businesses relate to and care about our communities and the environment.

Joan just had to have her Tillandsius

coupon iconWhat in the world is a Tillandsia?
It's a plant that you don't plant. Are you totally confused now?
While we were at Trade Secrets last month, Joan found something at one of the other vendors' booths that she just had to have in our stores....Air Plants.  Yes, Air Plants (i.e. Tillandsia) - no soil needed for these natural works of art and now we have them at Hammertown!

Going Up-Island in Martha's Vineyard - Chilmark & Menemsha

coupon icon
Well...our show finally opened this past weekend so now we have most of our days off. Now the real fun begins...exploring the rest of Martha's Vineyard.
One of my favorite discoveries has been a quaint little fishing village called Menemsha in the town of Chilmark.   There's no fancy harbor with a lot of yachts here - it's an unpretentious and authentic fishing village that I absolutely fell in love with.  Read more...
