At the Delaware Beaches…near Lewes…you will find…Coolspring Cottage…Gifts, Clothing…and Things…

I have mentioned before that by living for many years in the Delaware beaches, I have been a customer to plenty of stores. From the Delaware beaches to Ocean City, Maryland, is a very easy drive, so anyone that lives in this Peninsula drives all over the place with ease.

Shop owners have become friends.  One of these owners is Judy Demeno.  She used to own a very popular womens apparel shop in downtown Lewes; sold it, moved and opened another one in an area called Cool Spring.

I wish I could tell you more about Cool Spring, but I can’t.  I thought maybe there was a neat story with a spring around the area, but I don’t even know if there is one.  Apparently, Cool Spring is acually one of those unincorporated towns in the state of Delaware.

The name of Judy’s store is Coolspring Cottage, 28711 Lewes Georgetown Highway, Milton, DE 19968.  Tel. is 302-684-5140 and the fax is 302-684-5160.

Even though the address shows that it is in Milton, actually it is closer to Lewes.  To be exact it is off of Rt. 1 (Coastal Highway) and Rt. 9. (Lowes is on the corner).  About 2 miles from there.

Coolspring Cottage is a farm so it is bigger than you think.  The farm house is filled with accessories for the home with some clothing, as well, like the very popular Life is Good line.  The other popular line that has been around for many years is Brighton and Coolspring Cottage has many of their items available to you, including their add-on charms that are so popular now.

When I visited the shop they were getting ready to decorate for the holidays.  I can’t wait to see it since the whole farm has so much charm; wooden plank floors and fireplaces. Here are some pictures.

The back building houses an extensive variety of ladies ready to wear clothing; you know, sweaters, shoes, scarves and jewelry.  Judy is very personable and will help you pick the right outfit.  She will be honest in telling you if it looks good or not.  I say this because sometimes you go to stores and they might say that it looks great and you take it home and wonder what were they thinking. I am sure it has happen to you.

Anyway, Judy has great merchandise and you will not be disappointed.

I hope you have a great week-end.  Talk to you soon from Delray Beach, Florida…one of my beaches, as well.
