1. Jane Win Jewelry.
Jane and her team make such beautiful keepsakes that embody strength and positivity. I love that she’s such a strong woman. She created something from scratch that truly connects with women and the community around them. Wayne.
2. Nest Home Decor.
If you’re looking to upgrade your space, Nest is the place. I stop by all the time when I need something last-minute for the restaurants—especially during the holidays, or for refreshing greenery of good quality. 209 W. Lancaster Ave., Wayne, (484) 584-0584.
3. Capri Homemade Italian Ice.
I have so many memories of summertime evenings spent there with family and friends while growing up in Wayne. My order? Definitely a gelati, with passion-fruit-mango water ice and vanilla soft-serve. 238 E. Lancaster Ave., Wayne, (610) 386-1999.
4. Puccimanuli.
This magical place has thoughtfully curated games, books and toys for children of all ages. Each time I visit, I continue to be impressed by the fun collection of items they offer. They’re true experts at creating wonder and joy through the act of giving. 2 E. Lancaster Ave., Ardmore, (610) 649-2909.
5. Happy Hour at Blue Elephant Wayne.
I love the Blue Elephant cocktail, with its Thai butterfly pea flower tea infusion, and the tuna bruschetta with kizami wasabi, tomatoes, rice crisp and dill aioli. 110 N. Wayne Ave., Wayne, (484) 580-6142.
