Our Favorite Home & Garden Shop in Southampton, Long Island: Mecox Gardens, a beautiful Oasis

Looking For Unique & Beautiful Design For Your Home
This summer in the Hamptons?
Mecox Gardens 
in Southampton is a Favorite!
Out and about this week in the Hamptons, shopping for a client we came upon many home shops in the East End.  Today, one that stands out set on three acres of meandering grounds, fountains, antique statues, lush plantings and a cornucopia of vintage furniture and accessories is the Mecox Gardens shop in Southampton.  We may be a little bit partial since our Root Cellar Designs pillows are now being offered in the shop, but honestly our tortoiseshell, stick bug and other patterned pillows have found a happy home here. There is most certainly a bevy of talent stylizing this shop.  Each corner is filled with wonderfully creative vignettes.  In the East End of Long Island there are two Mecox Gardens--Southampton and East Hampton. Run over and nab some beauties for your beach house. Did we mention all the Mecox Gardens are in the throes of a big sale?  20% off until July 17th -- the sale commemorates their 20 year anniversary--
20 percent off for 20 days.

Happy Nesting
XO Tamara
