our favorite tree trimmings
The halls have officially been decked at catching fireflies so we asked our firefly team what ornament they want to take home this season.  These ornaments are only available at our Ann Arbor, Berkley & Rochester locations. This adorable bookish fox is the perfect addition to any book worms tree! I’m a big dog lover and absolutely love these cute little felt dog ornaments! What’s not to love about this adorable owl whooo is .

Since we’re collecting stories & photos from our firefly fans about the greatest gifts they have given or received from catching fireflies this July, we thought it’d be fun to share our team’s favorite finds.
