MEN....

It is always fun to help the men that come into our store. And yes, we DO have men that shop at The Lace Place. A lot of men will come in running an errand for their wife with specific instructions of what to buy. A good handful come in because they are in the design business with a distinct idea of what their needs are. I also have some that buy, simply because they like ribbon. They understand the simple idea that when a package is presented beautifully, the other person they are giving it to will appreciate the thought and gesture even more than presenting it in a plain gift bag. These customers really take their time and thought into these gifts..for their mother, wife, girlfriend and daughter. It is so refreshing to see.  Today, a father spending the afternoon with his daughter came in picking out bows for her and his unborn daughter due this spring. What a lovely thing to do for a dad to bring his daughter into this store, knowing that what she picks will make her feel beautiful!
Most of our customers are women....it is refreshing to know that there are men who are our customers and understand what we do!
