CHRISTMAS
OPEN HOUSE |
|
The snowflakes tickle my
nose and I dream of days past with all the wonders of sugarplum fairies, or
dancing tin soldiers, a snowman that came to life and maybe eight tiny reindeer.
Let us take you back to a simpler time, when the glow of the Christmas tree and
the warmth of family and friends are the gifts most dear. |
| Mary Carol Garrity established Nell Hill's in 1990 in an old bank building in downtown Atchison, Kansas, naming the store after her maternal grandmother. The eclectic shop houses European antiques, home furnishings, and offers giftware and other accessories all at a great value. Part of the mystique of Nell Hill's is that the store is constantly changing, partly to keep customers interested and coming back. |
| Mary Carol has an unabashed attraction to the old buildings that pepper downtown Atchison. The most recent addition to her emporium family, Garrity's Encore, is housed in a restored building that dates to the turn of the century. Mary Carol has long relied on husband Dan Garrity's keen eye for special antique pieces, so she thought it only fitting that he have a store that pays him homage. Garrity's Encore, named for Dan, features antiques that Dan finds on his frequent buying trips to Europe and the store is large enough to hold major pieces. In typical Mary Carol style, the store provides a backdrop for her to showcases her talent for mixing old with new, antique with contemporary. |
