Garden Grounds had closed early for the evening, a sign stating a private event was taking place. Which of course was simply the Nix meeting up with Vincent to show him the small living space.
Once you enter the front door, the smell of coffee, warm apple cider and fresh pine fill the senses. No one smell overpower another, all seeming to work well together. Aside from the holiday smells, the shop itself was transformed into a festive wonderland! But nothing too over the top of gaudy, everything was classy and just created a warm, inviting environment.
On the counter, there were tall vases, some filled with candy, and some with gift bows and ornaments. Each table had it’s own centerpiece, some had green moss balls in jars with lights, others had roses in water and even some with white candles with pops of color.
Various other decorations were placed around the room, as well as red and white poinsettias.
Despite the sign, there was fresh coffee brewed and a few pastries and cookies set aside on a plate. The Nix was at the counter sipping a coffee and flipping through some paperwork. The thing no one tells you about owning a business? The paperwork, there was always paperwork. Despite this, she was quietly humming to herself, dressed casually in jeans, black tank top and a long flannel. Her long hair hung around her shoulders and cascaded down her back, sweeping the floor.
