Iconic Movers
As we go through the stages of moving, we are juggling everything, planning, sorting and packing. Moving is stressful. Planning and organization are key to smooth move. Finding a moving company that takes care of our antiques is super important to us. In the past we have suffered a lot of damaged by careless movers. We look for companies that have more than enough blankets and bubble wrap to wrap our treasures.
We found one!

Santa Monica Outlet
When I was a little girl the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica was filled with lower priced” Bargain Stores”. Then came the renovation and growth and most discount outlet stores left the area. Bargain Outlets in Santa Monica became scarce. So when I stumbled upon the Santa Monica Outlet on Lincoln Blvd, I slammed on the brakes, u-turned and headed in to investigate.
