My Oyster is located across the street from Crescent Beach- lovingly remembered as the Kite Shop. Store owner Melissa Sitbon Philip visited this shop in her childhood, then as an adult with her own children to buy kites for the season. To create My Oyster in this space brought feelings of excitement and nostalgia.
In the words of Melissa, "To know Block Island is to love it. The rolling hills meeting the crashing ocean, the charm of Victorian homes tucked into coves, even the smells and the sounds have swept visitors and artists off their feet for centuries. Block Island inspires. It evokes the feeling of being back in time, simple, but dressed up as well. With the natural glamour of breath taking sunsets, lighthouses and perfectly imperfect stone walls, it’s the ultimate mix of rustic and an unintended, casual elegance. This was the inspiration for My Oyster. Loving all things poetic, and by combining the organic vitality of flowers with the warmth of My Oyster, a beautiful poem was created. This little hideaway is overflowing with beautiful things for your nest and yourself. Stop by, take a look, you’ll feel right at home."
My Oyster brings to Block Island an eclectic shop filled with all things beautiful. Mixed with Melissa's passion for floral design, this unique boutique offers fresh floral arrangements and bouquet deliveries all summer on the island.
Gifts for them, gifts for you, gifts for home and hearth.
Fabulous, by the way ™
