Happy Birthday Louisa!

We're so blessed that our shop is housed in the historic Stetson House in Waynesville.  It just gives you a special feeling to come to work each day in such a charming little building that has so much history to it.   You really feel a connection to those who have been here before you.  The most famous resident, for whom the building is named, was Louisa Stetson Larrick.  She was the sister of John B. Stetson, of hat fame. (If you would like to learn a bit more about this history of the Stetson House visit here.) Today would have been her 191st birthday and so we are having a little celebration at Trendy Bindi's in her honor.

We have these lovely cupcakes from Cake Diva which is just up the street from us. Aren't they sweet?

We are taking 20% off all clothing and women's accessories and we will be giving away these lovely Cape Cod Cupboard notecard sets

and this charming Welcome sign by Pink Buttercreme to different lucky customers throughout the day!

David Schock of University of Dayton Finds Long Lost Martin Luther King Tape

David Schock from the family alma mater, the University of Dayton, was doing a documentary about UD's poet Dr. Martin,
who does a mean one-man show of Paul Lawrence Dunbar's poetry, when he stumbled across a tape from November 28th, 1964 when Martin Luther King Jr. came to speak at the University of Dayton in their Fieldhouse.
