Heart to Heart: Unique and exquisite

    Marie Hutchinson established the Heart to Heart Gift and Specialty Clothing Shop nearly 30 years ago. Having an eye for fashion and the latest trends, Hutchinson searches for all things that are unique and exquisite.
    Transitioning from all gifts and collectibles when she first opened her business, Hutchinson now focuses on a mix of gifts appropriate for weddings, babies or just for oneself. She carries pottery, crystal, serving dishes, frames, candles, baby clothes and accessories. She also carries ladies clothing, toiletries, jewelry, Byers Carolers and specialized items pertaining to the local area, such as lake journals, coasters, aprons and frames.
    For the newborn, Hutchinson carries soft bring-me-home blankets and the Bundle Me car seat cover. These covers are perfect for the upcoming winter season.
    Robeez and Ped-i-Ped shoes and boots for toddlers are a must have and the mix and match Zutano clothing that is soft to the touch, comfortable and colorful have been popular sellers.
    If you are looking for special children’s clothing for the holiday season, Hutchinson offers a line that features gorgeous hand smocking. She also has the Pod chair and Taggies that are now organic.
    Hutchinson provides beautiful gift-wrapping, second to none in the area. Any gift from Heart to Heart is wrapped with a signature gift-wrap recognized by beautiful paper and elaborate bows.
    Located at 678 North St., people from all over the country stop by on their way north or south. Hutchinson enjoys meeting new customers and seeing familiar faces, as well. She caters to the customer’s needs, sometimes taking a variety of possible gift items to the customer’s home if they are unable to come to her. She ships gifts as an added service to the customer and will open her shop to meet the customer’s schedule if necessary.
    Infants and childrens’ sizes to 6X, and summer clothing are now on sale at 50 percent off. Also, ladies slacks and sweaters are on sale. Fall apparel in the latest fashions is arriving for both children and ladies.
