Blanche + Mimi

Your kitchen may never be the same after visiting this veritable trove of cooking and home accessories. Mismatched, vintage flatware, glasses, and plates provide the makings of a whimsical dining table, and equally charming block-printed pillowcases, handmade quilts, gauzy blankets, and hand-turned wooden candlesticks are the kind of gifts you wind up keeping for yourself. The baby clothing section is equally irresistible, filled with muslin sunhats, organic sleeping sacs covered in sailboats, and woolen mobiles of hovering storks.
