Operating a website is expensive--not only because programmers are expensive, but because margins are smaller.
For 10 years, Bridge has encouraged stores to beef up spending in preparation for the e-commerce boom. It's easier to spend a little each year over many years than spend money in a panic.

For kitchen preparations with personality, look no further than a MacKenzie-Childs colander! The steel underbody makes this piece a workhorse and the hand-painted (Courtly Check and Royal Check) and hand-decorated (Flower Market) patterns give some pizzazz to polishing potatoes and sass to straining salads. We like to keep ours out on the counter with fresh cherry tomatoes, strawberries, or other yummy goodies! All patterns are available at Oh Kay's!
