I will be entirely honest when I say this place is filled with treasures, big and small. Clean,…read morepolite and neatly displayed but on the other hand, everything is over priced! Right down to old wooden stamps each in the multiple hundreds. Ouch! Don't forget these people have to pay astronomical rent and taxes just to open the doors and have these items procured and in stock but there is a limit to paying for their services and being horribly overcharged.

Walk inside to high ceilings and low-set chandeliers garnished with crystals and brass trim. The store is a massive collection of decor for all rooms in the home, and fixtures both big and small. Tables and chairs, place settings, dishes, wine holders, umbrella bins, candelabras, lamps, bath salts, soaps-- the list doesn't end. The store's vast collection of material goods is unified under a gorgeous Baroque inspired esthetic. The store is well laid out; however, it seems impossible to take it all in during one visit. There is an overwhelming abundance of things to look at, but an obvious eye for detail and decadence. Affiliated with Abby's Fabric Shop, the store also contains plentiful fabric spools to allude luxury. Bellissimo is rich and a gorgeous spot to explore. Prices are heavy, so I will continue to daydream for now. But with the fantasy selection of pretty things, I shall encourage my Parisian cliché with visits to Bellissimo Boutique.

What a charming find! Whether you are decorating your own place or hunting for a unique house…read morewarming gift for someone, Bellissimo is the place to visit.

Found some amazing buys of unbelievable quality, and he delivered! I cannot recommend this place more

The signage for local businesses is poor so expect to get lost. However It is very scenic so it really was'nt an issue for us. The store is in a house located at the bottom of a steep driveway. So wear appropriate footwear. The garage contains items that are 50% off. The items are laid out in a haphazard manner. To me the search is half the fun although I understand some people may not enjoy this as much as I do. Upon entering the actual store you are greeted by a woman in period dress and a man in a top hat offers you delicious shortbread. The store is quite small so if you are claustrophobic I wouldn't recommend it. However I absolutely loved it ! I felt like I was in Alladins Cave. The selection of items is amazingly diverse from ephemera,dolls, jewelry,china,household items,pictures etc. I perused everything in the store and I was in there for at least an hour or more. The prices range from around $5.00 to a couple hundred. I plan on returning in the future and I would recommend taking the drive and visiting this gem of a place.
