great coffee at flow….the flow coffee/tea bar
Dear Diary, Stephanie keeps me in jeans, yoga jeans…they are the kind of jeans she carries there at her boutique, Flow, in downtown Amherst. They are soft and stretchy, feel like yoga pants but look like jeans cause they are jeans. I have never had jeans as comfortable as these. Honest. They are the kind of jeans that you can be full and still comfy. Now that I like.
and she sells beautiful soaps, and Susan Black’s great prints and cards, and yoga clothes, pottery, and all kinds of interesting things.
Part of her mission is sustainability and being eco friendly, and she considers this in everything she offers at her shop.
And now miss stephanie of flow lifestyle boutique in downtown amherst has extended her offerings to coffee and tea…lots of great interesting varieties. Today I had a chocolate chai which is a combination of cinnamon, cloves, coffee and hot chocolate and it was tasty. And there were two comfy chairs to curl up in, there were books to read, and a baby fell asleep on the floor…yes there was a baby who fell asleep on the floor…cause that’s flow, nice and easy , and now a place to go where you can rest a bit and have a treat.
Stephanie is a young entrepreneur who has been in business in downtown Amherst for three years. She is determined to make it work, to make it beautiful, to create and energize her community. She is a great model of our studio motto…create beauty everyday
If you can please like this post on Facebook, or tweet about it because we want people to know about Stephanie and the great coffee/tea bar at flow lifestyle boutique in downtown Amherst on Victoria Street. We want people to know about Stephanie and her adventure. She is excited. Tell everybody about her so she can be all that she can be…
She is just a great  soul…
 Making great fair trade organic coffee using the best ingredients she can find and creating a sustainable small business in her community.Now what’s better than this.
 Susan Black’s prints and cards look gorgeous at Flow cause they are gorgeous I guess
 Flow is a place so restful that you can fall asleep on the floor…if you like
Her husband Andrew arrives and see the baby asleep on the floor…
 She carries Jen’s pottery. You will soon be able to have your coffee in Jen’s handmade pottery mugs and hang out while Stephanie knits, or makes you some fancy coffee. She is promising whipped cream. I am saying that here because I really want it on my chocolate chai next time….in a pottery mug. Yes!
 She carries Alicia  Steeve’s hooked posy pins

MUST.GO.SOON. Like, now.
Stephanie, the coffee bar is looking great! I will have to get in to see it the next time I am home.
Deanne, thanks for including a photos my Posies by heartandhook
I am hooking flowers almost every day, working on some pieces for wedding parties, check them out when you have a chance + let me know what you think ! I’ll be in for some sari silk soon I hope!
We really should do that for each other as much as we can. You will enjoy flow
This shop is on my list for when I come to Amherst for the abstract workshop! I love to see how you promote and celebrate other businesses Deanne.
Flow is a wonderful treasure in our town, I agree! The coffee/tea bar complements the space nicely. Good for you Stephanie!
I’ll put this shop on my list to visit when I come next to Amherst. I’ve got a go to list…lovely to see Susan’s cards displayed. I am so proud of what she has been doing. Mom Flo would have been tickled pink to see this display.
I was in at Christmas and bought beautiful mittens made in Port Elgin, (that the local ladies make as a fund raiser for the community)I really enjoyed my time in the store and can see she has a vision of purpose for her store.I will be back in soon!
I agree with you Flow Lifestyle Boutique is a special sweet place to visit. We three B&B gals dropped in after workshop last year. We met Andrew and chatted him up. I have a feeling Ruth bought one of the posy pins. It will be on our list again this year, with a nice cup of coffee too.
We have a lot of great things in our little town! Cheers to you for helping spread the word.
merci for the shout out ! & yes Stephanie’s shop is perfect & she is perfectly lovely
Oh Deanne!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! Without fail when I start to second guess myself you make an appearance and help me see things sometimes I can’t! You are incredible!! xo
