Andrea Brooke Holds a January Sale at Grace & Favor
Pip, pip, cheerio, ginger beer, Downton Abbey, and all that lot. Interior design maven Andrea Brooke is offering a January sale at her swoon-worthy Grace & Favor home furnishings shop, located in a converted carriage house on North 1st Street in Williamsburg.
From the elegance of the Edwardian parlor to the scruffy chic of a well-worn Union Jack, Gloucestershire-born Brooke’s collection of furniture, lighting, wallpaper, art, garden, and accoutrements serve to capture the spirit of antique English manor houses, as well as the homey comfort of countryside cottages.
Idlewild Travel & Language Bookstore Opens in the Bedford Mini-Mall
This weekend, the independent bookseller scene in the GPT/BWK/WB adds another player: Idlewild Books, a travel bookstore with a twist—it offers foreign language lessons in a space dedicated to exploring different cultures through reading, travel, and language learning.
The mini-chain of language school/bookstores began in the Union Square area in Manhattan in 2008, expanded to Cobble Hill in 2012, and adds a third today by opening in the Bedford Avenue Mini-mall. According to store founder, former United Nations Media Officer David Del Vecchio, “We opened our first store near Union Square in Manhattan in March 2008, as an international bookstore with novels, guidebooks, and non-fiction organized by country, along with some books in French, Spanish and Italian. We added language classes in 2010, and opened our second location in Cobble Hill in early 2012.”
