About Our Independent Boutique & Jewelry Store
Sometimes you just need a little something! Whether it’s clothing, a gift, a piece of jewelry, or an accessory, A Little Something can help. Created in 2010 as a storefront in Shelburne, Vermont, A Little Something has grown to become a destination for beautiful clothing, jewelry and gifts, yet retained its status as a favorite neighborhood shop.
A Little Something About the Owner
Deidre wears many hats. Always an entrepreneur at heart, she opened A Little Something in 2010 when a local jewelry store was offered for sale. She was encouraged to buy it and set to work writing a business plan which led her to realize that her community needed more than just a jewelry store. So, A Little Something was born, and has grown to incorporate not just jewelry and gifts, but stylish and well-crafted clothing, small-batch candles, classic and modern housewares, greeting cards and more.
Deidre loves to prominently feature Vermont artisans in the shop, and realizes that there are many, many talented people all around the country and the world, whose work is appreciated and loved by her customers. She travels extensively and is always on what she calls “retail reconnaissance,” seeking out the undiscovered makers whose work she can bring to her customers. At A Little Something, Deidre has created a shopping experience in which you don’t have to spend a lot to get high quality, one of a kind jewelry, gifts, and more. Whether you truly just need a little something, or want to mark an important milestone with a memorable gift, we can help.
Shop Local, Shop Small
We work with small jewelry companies throughout Vermont, the United States and around the world. We are constantly getting in new clothing, gift and jewelry pieces, and have an ever-changing inventory. All of our merchandise is creative, unique and affordable, designed to fit the occasion, whether it's a small token of friendship, a significant piece of jewelry to mark a milestone, or a perfect accessory for a favorite outfit.
Our storefront offers fabulous customer service in a beautiful, fun setting. Our staff is happy to help you find the perfect gift, select a beautiful piece of jewelry, a cute piece of clothing that is perfectly giftable. We believe that gift giving should be a fun experience and love to coach you on what you know about your intended, so we can help you select something that is sure to please. Whatever the occasion, we can provide you with a fabulous shopping experience. We're just down the road from Burlington, Vermont, and have plenty of parking. We also have free gift wrapping! Our online shopping experience promises to be just as good. We offer the same jewelry and loot you’ll find in our retail store, and it will be ever changing, so stop in often!
Because we strive to work only with small vendors, many of our jewelry pieces are one of a kind. This doesn’t mean they are expensive, but it does mean that when they are gone, they are usually not restocked. We strive to keep our website updated but occasionally we may have sold something off the floor of the shop and not removed it from the website. If this happens, we will let you know immediately and can usually offer alternative jewelry pieces. Occasionally, we are able to special order inventory. Please ask!
