It’s almost time to say bon voyage to this unique, handmade shopping experience on Governors Island! The shop is scheduled to close its doors on September 6th.

To celebrate the end of a wonderful summer bringing handmade goodness to Governors Island, The Handmade Treasure Chest Boutique will be offering 25% OFF ON ALL MERCHANDISE.

If you’ve visited the boutique already, come back to see what new products the artists have restocked throughout the summer. And if you haven’t discovered the Treasure Chest for yourself, you have this one last time to catch a ferry over to visit the boutique for some amazing handmade goods!

This magical pop-up store has made its home in Historical House 6B in the Nolan Park section of Governors Island all summer. After September 6th, however, The {NewNew} will bury its treasure for good, only to be found in the Etsy shops of its contributing artists.

Come in and plunder while you still can, landlubbers!

Friday Sept. 3 ~ 10:30 am - 4:00 pm
Saturday, Sept. 4 ~ 10:30 am - 6:00 pm
Sunday, Sept. 5 ~ 10:30 am - 6:00 pm

Today is my best friend's birthday! Like me, she is a Geminii and we both love a wide variety of pretty, shiny objects. In her honor here are some beautiful, shiny, unique, awesome and dazzling items, brought to you by the fabulously talented {NewNew} team!

Let her eat cake and lots of it. Make it the pineapple upside-down kind please.

Caketime print, $8, available at MyZoetrope.

She's always on the go and constantly losing things.

This bag is perfect because it can be attached to her wrist. Ha!

The Super Pleated clutch, $68, available at bungaloe.

In our own minds.

FOX pillow, $79, available at alexandraferguson.

I won't mention the time we went to a local bakery and she bought a dozen red velvets. She then proceeded to eat 6 of them at one sitting. That's just between you, me and the blog.

Lampwork Sprinkle cupcake, $32, available at astudiobythesea.

What I didn't mention is that she's a runner. So she's allowed to eat 6 cupcakes

because it will all fall off her after her 6th mile. Me on the other hand....

Ipod armband, $20, available at JiJis.

This might be the one thing that could make her stop and stare for more than 3 seconds.

LOOK AT THE PRETTY COLORS!!!!

Crystal Vitrail Necklace, $45 available at AdornmentsNYC.

I'd buy her this card so I could write something sappy in it.

Then she would read it aloud dramatically and we'd giggle until we felt sick from all the cupcakes.

Koi Bubbles notecard, $5 available at Fubabee.

Happy birthday Madness! xoxoxo!
