| - It is so colorful here and nicely arranged. The Boulevard carries creative art that would go great in any modern home. The styles are very diverse, they carry blown glass, paintings, candles, hand-crafted jewelry, and art crafted from wood. I feel like I am leaving something out, but there are just so many different kinds of home decor here.
I really loved the owner's taste, the only qualm I have is that none of it is really by local artists. Some is imported from Europe (a lot of the glasswork), and I believe most of the woodwork is fair trade art.
The clerk seemed like she was only really interested in people who looked like they could afford to buy something, and this is understandable, I mean it is a business. I was just window-shopping, I won't lie. Although I did love the watercolor painting of what looked like the Lion of Judah; I may come back and pick that up, so don't buy it, haha.
I thought that setting the stores on several levels was interesting and it helped to keep the similar art forms together. Too many of these places close at five, this one closes at seven, so its a good venture after work.
