It goes without saying that shopping at the Delaware Beaches is part of the ritual if you are visiting Southern Delaware. Tax free shopping!! Our casual lifestyle at the beaches is fun and carefree . As I was walking in Rehoboboth Beach this week-end I had my picks.
I was thinking that adding spunk and pizzaz with accessories for ourselves or homes can either make or break the look. The rule of thumb is not to overpower. This rule is timeless. Use accessories that will work with your wardrobe or your home decor.
Remember that it is called an accessory because you want it to enhance and not overshadow.
No outfit is complete without the proper accessory.
In Downtown Rehoboth Beach on the ocean block I found Tiger Lili. This shop has clothing, jewelry, handbags, shoes, and accessories….Sorry guys, not for you.
These bags were calling Summer!!
And these were the cutest sandals. And, since it is going to be in the 80s this week, they are the perfect sandal to wear out and about in town or wear them to dinner.
Nothing better than a good conversation piece or pieces when having guests for drinks or dinner. There is a new store in town called The Spice & Tea Exchange, also located on the ocean block in Downtown Rehoboth Beach. These items will get your guests talking.
The Himalayan Grater Stone is beautiful pink salt that is harvested by hand from ancient sea-beds located in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains. All you have to do is put them on the table and grate the salt with a micro-planer. It comes out very fine and you don’t need that much to get great taste.
The salt blocks and platters are also going to create great conversation. These blocks and platters can be heated or cooled; put them in the oven or freezer. They can be used for food preparation and table presentation.
Mod Cottage is located at 247 A Rehoboth Avenue. This shop has great accessories for the home and plenty for gift giving, as well.
Jane & Georgie just inaugurated their new building…same spot on 419 Rehoboth Avenue. This shop has plenty of indulgences, we, women love. Tops, dresses, and the beach indispensables.
At 29819 Coastal Highway you will find Tulip. It has everything you can imagine…furniture, lamps, art…but since I am concentrating on accessories, these finds were perfect. The stone on this bracelet is Labradorite. Other stones are available.
Plenty of more shops to visit in the Nation’s Summer Capital!! Let the Summer of 2013 begin!

Don’t miss the opportunity because Mod Cottage is full of gifts and home accessories for every corner of your home.
Mod Cottage is located at 247 Rehoboth Avenue in Downtown Rehoboth Beach. Tel. 302-227-7277. Website? http://www.modcottage.net.
Brad Holsinger and Ed Moore are the proprietors of Mod Cottage. This is a must stop shop in Rehoboth Beach. Today, Brad gave Jody and I a warm welcome. He was getting ready for the celebration on Saturday.
You have to spend time at the store because every corner has something…pillows, napkins, shower curtains, gifts for every occasion… you name it.
At first when I saw these, I thought they were wine bottles. They were, actually, umbrellas. Their case is hard and waterproof. Perfect for those rainy days we have been having…just close the umbrella and stick in the case.
Mary F. Costa is a native of California, but Rehoboth is lucky to have her as a resident. Her passion is woodworking and I thought these were so pretty!!
Products from Lollia…they have appeared in Oprah’s magazine.
A corner for children. Really cute!!
The jewelry was very reasonably priced.
I have plenty of friends celebrating birthdays, others have children getting married, and for others, is graduation….I hope they are checking this post!!
Candles and Scents!!
Now that you have taken a peek at what Mod Cottage has to offer, all you have to do is join them in the celebration!! Have a great week-end.

Out and About in Rehoboth Beach I came to visit Mod Cottage. It was about time. They are starting their 5th season at the Delaware Beaches. I think you will see why it should be on the list of Must Stop Shops on the Avenue.
Mod Cottage is located at 247 A Rehoboth Ave., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. 302-227-7277. Website? www.modcottage.net. The Proprietors? Brad and Ed
I heard laughter. A couple of women were choosing mugs and napkins for a get together with friends; matching the quotes on the mugs with the friends that would be attending. Did not know them and did not meet them, but they were certainly having fun.
Accessorizing one’s home will add that personal touch. But, also instead of re-decorating, some are re-accessorizing. You know, displaying, coordinating, varying, re-positioning. Basically, it is refreshing someone’s castle and adding those finishing touches.
Look no further. Mod Cottage has everything. If you are here, in Rehoboth, stop by because you would have to see it for yourself. Plus, you get to meet Brad and Ed. I know, I have said it before, Rehoboth Beach’s shopkeepers are very friendly. Ed and Brad are a good example of it.
So, let’s go shopping. Well, you know what I mean. Here are a “couple” of pictures of what Mod Cottage has to offer.
Rugs, placemats, and napkins and greeting cards.
Glassware by Simon Pearce. His artisans are primarily focused on the East Coast and in New England. The glassware can be personalized.
Candles, soaps, lotions, and Scent Diffusers. So many to pick and choose from.
The store has pick up gifts for every occassion.
One company that caught my attention was Mussels and More Pottery. They are handmade of high fired stoneware and porcelain clays. They are also microwave, oven and dishwasher safe. Durable for every day, in other words.
Fine linens and shower curtains.
A wedding in the future? A birthday bash? Or, just for the fun of it?
And showcasing the coast.
P.S. My pillows. Made in Easton, Maryland
Have a great day!! It is gorgeous out there!!
