About Us

Greetings and a very warm Welcome! to Pretty Things & Cool Stuff's Book Shop!

Let's start with the basics:

You can shop 24/7/365 with us.

If you need to contact us, you can by phone at (214) 660-5467. Or, you can reach us by email at info@prettythingsandcoolstuff.com These are crazy days, but we will work very hard to try get back with you within 24 hours.

We look forward to also having you visit us "next door" at Pretty Things & Cool Stuff (If you came here from our main shop, then just click the back button for your broswer. If you came to the Book Shop directly, then just click here www.prettythingsandcoolstuff.com and you will arrive at the our front door.

Also, as these are new days for the Book Shop and ever-changing days for the world, purchases from the Book Shop will need to be made separately from those in our main shop. One of the reasons has to do with fulfillment of books that we may not have in stock at our main shop, and those will be shipped directly to you from either publishers or distributors. We are working to try to find ways to make the process smoother as soon as we can. Thank you very much in advance for your understanding and patience!

And, here is a little explanation about why we are here and about our mission:

Pretty Things & Cool Stuff raison d’être is to enlighten, engage, educate, empower, enrich, encourage, excite and entertain through discovery and delight.

We strive to do so through the undeniable power of books, thoughtfully and conscientiously curated gifts — with a heart for handcrafted — and artisanal, small-batch goodies to sip, savor and enjoy.

We do all of the above with a priority focus on, and deep commitment to People & Planet and working with and supporting partners who do the same.We try to work with as my B Corp-designated businesses as we can!

In a constantly changing world, every day is a new day at Pretty Things & Cool Stuff. There is so much to discover, understand, learn about and determine how best to put into place and practice, as we work diligently to stay true to and deepen our purpose.

We also are always focused on what we can do to better serve you and yours, and of course — People + Planet.

We really hope you will enjoy and benefit from shopping with us, and thank you very much for supporting the undeniable power of books, reading, ongoing discovery and our mission!
