Shopping: The English Village

The English Village is an outdoor shopping center and
promises a relaxing walk from one boutique to the next, and your first stop
should be at The French Basket. This upscale home décor boutique has
one-of-a-kind pieces that cannot be found anywhere else in the Shoals area. The
store boasts a mix of rustic European and American antique furniture and an
array of other home décor options such as dishware, Cucina handsoaps, and
hand-made wine stoppers. It’s the perfect store to find that one piece of
furniture you've always wanted, or a quick stop to pick up a small, unique gift
for a friend. They also offer wedding gift registry and display certain pieces from
each registry to make it easy to pick up items for upcoming showers. Another
exciting incentive to visit this store is the very recent addition of Harper
Clothing Co! The high-end clothing boutique that was once on North Court
Street, now shares a space with The French Basket, making this a perfect stop
for your home and clothing needs. Both sides of the store are beautifully
decorated with soft twinkle lights, dramatic chandeliers, and a blend of
neutral tones, creating a calming shopping experience.
Next, you better hurry to Sidelines Jewelry; they have new
items coming in soon, just in time for summer! This charming jewelry store has carefully
selected quality pieces to craft a beautiful collection of distinctive jewelry.
Each piece is a statement that is the final touch to your favorite outfit. Every
season the accessories are thoughtfully hand-selected at market to cater to the
Shoals community. In addition, if you have a piece of estate jewelry that you
would like to have redone, they can turn it into a ring, bracelet, or necklace
to be handed down from one generation to the next. They also sell unique items
such as African Elephant Hair jewelry, gold or sterling silver necklace’s
engraved with Florence’s coordinates, or stylish, handmade rings that are made
in the store. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable, and passionate about their
craft. If you’re looking for something you will love or that you want to give
to a loved one, you will be sure to find it at this local jewelry store.

In conclusion, The English Village is the perfect Saturday
afternoon shopping trip. Start by selecting gorgeous pieces for your home at
The French Basket, splurge on one-of-a-kind jewelry at Sidelines, take a break
at The Sweet Basil Café (another upcoming blog post), end with a glass of wine
while shopping for your new spring wardrobe at Marigail Mathis, and I would say
you've had a satisfying experience. The English Village really does have so
much to offer, and while it can sometimes be overlooked since it’s between
downtown and the mall, don’t count this shopping center out—it’s a delightful
walk from one beautiful store to the next.
