Social Graces
Spring Break in Nashville (con't)

Social Graces is one of the many speciality shops I perused while in Nashville.  It is located in Hillsboro Village just a few doors down from Fido’s. (See post for letter F) The name of the shop alone made it a must stop shop. 

I ambled from one display to the next, oohing and awing at the selection of stationary, note cards, invitations, soaps and candles.  But it was the assortment of seals and sealing wax that caught my eye and my interest.  I have a weakness for seals and sealing wax that is only second to my weakness for books.  
My Social Graces Purchase

 There was a basket full of seal rings to choose from. I combed through the letters of the alphabet and images on the interchangeable seal plates, giddy as a child given free range in a sweet shop. I thought my heart would burst with excitement when I came across a seal plate with the image of a parchment scroll and quill pen. I couldn't buy all the plates I singled out and eventually narrowed my choices down to two. Now I had to choose one, but which one?  The letter 'A' or yes you guessed it, the parchment scroll and quill.

I hovered over that basket debating which one to choose for so long the staff began casting suspicious glances in my direction.  My solution, stop deliberating and purchase Both!!!


I just love this type of shop!
