Willow, one of Chicago's great little housewares boutiques, is closing their storefront and will start operating solely as a web store at the end of this month. I used to work there so I'm particularly bummed to see it go, but I'm excited for Amy and the freedom that the web store will give her. She's even going to offer same-day messenger delivery to local customers!
I stopped in the store today to say hello and to snag a couple of these wonderful little woodcut sculptures by local artist Sighn. The "its ok" series is a limited edition of 1 million hand cut sculptures. I've been wanting one for a while so when I heard Willow was having an art show featuring his work, I knew I'd have to get some. All of his work is pretty incredible and maybe one day I'll be able to pick up a larger piece.
