Local E-Biz Goes Brick and Mortar for Holidays

Rye Brook-based In-Things, which specializes in handmade fashion, has opened up a pop-up store for the holiday season.

Every once in a while, some heartening economic news pops up amid the gloom of the recession. This time, the good news is extremely local.

Local retailer SAACHI by In-Things, normally an e-commerce shop based out of a Rye Brook office, has opened up a satellite office in Greenwich through the end of December.

This pop-up store is the sole storefront for displaying a unique, handmade line of fashion accessories by the online small business.

The fashion accessory pieces, according to marking manager Paulina Flores, “embody true Indian artisanship with a modern edge.”

Pieces in magazines and television, including the Oprah show. The Greenwich storefront features everything available on the website including the most popular item: the marquis bracelet.

“It is the fact that every piece is not like the other, designed and made individually, makes each one special,” she said.

Currently an e-commerce business based out of Rye Brook, Flores is currently considering opening a permanent physical storefront.

“The owner had a chance to open in Greenwich so we took the opportunity,” she said. “If you can reach a potential client base, then why not?”

Open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the pop-up store is located at 19A Putnam Ave. in Greenwich through the end of the month.

Aidan ... your words are eloquent and true.

Wow, that's a lot of information. Thanks for sharing it.

Hi, Thank you both for the feedback. Aiden, were you trying to post as a board message? There mightRead More have been some kind of technical glitch that our IT team is working out. In regards to your other comments, I urge you to give it a little time to get used to. The little bell at the top right of the page has a red circle with a number in it to tell you that someone has commented or interacted with something you have done so you should be able to go there and see exactly what is going on in the places where you posted. I hope this helps!

I agree with Aidan. I would check the Patch once a day for the articles, but several times to seeRead More how a discussion progressed. With the new format, that method is virtually impossible.

Btw, I tried for twenty minutes to post this as a new thread ... I finally gave up because pageRead More after page did zero ... just spun me nowhere. A waste.

Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port ChesterRead More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland countiesRead More ... by about $2,000 per student. The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.

I am concerned there is not enough attention to detail in the BOE budget overall and Mrs. BrakewoodRead More comment about keeping taxes affordable ... where does she live ? they are out of control and in my opinion the money we pay for taxes we should have the best looking schools anywhere ... just my opinion
