Here's a big Bean Up The Nose Art, "HOWDY!" to brick and mortar friend, Heartware!
You'll find this great shop at 6309 College Avenue . . . in the tasty Elmwood/Rockridge block of College Avenue that sports bakery La Farine, and other delicious restaurants and food shops. And Heartware is pretty darned tasty itself.
You're greeted at the door by terrific dog Benny -- whose portrait hangs on the wall, too. 
Heartware's graced this neighborhood for nine years, and offers a wonderful assortment of gifties and goodies. 
Hip owner Maggie H. has an excellent eye for all sorts of fun items that you'll want to give as gifts . . . or, maybe, keep for yourself . . . .
Near and dear to our hearts here is a rockin' greeting card section.
Which boasts some of our favorite non-Beans cards ever. Such as this treasure by Hard Cards. (Check out their website. They are fabulous.)
(Go right on over to their website, too.)
Love everything about this shop, right down to the bumper sticker sported by the register.
Thanks, Heartware, for carrying Bean Up The Nose Art's cards in your fabulous store. We totally appreciate being included in your hilarious, eclectic, hip blend of treats. And thanks to you, Benny, for being such a great shop dog. ROCK ON!!!

That place looks hilarious and awesome! I can easily see myself being in there for hours. Great spot!
An excellent store, indeed. And props to Hard Cards, too, for writing an awesome "thank you" post to Beans for this mention. Thanks for your comments, smart women who know where they like to shop :)
Hi there! Thanks so much for the shout out! That was very un-hard of you. :) You put more work into this post than I have put into our FB page, and for that I have MUCH awe and gratitude. It made my day (and Benny's. He says...well, nothing. He's a dog. But his eyes say "Cool Beans".) Great Blog too! Thanks again and happy day to you!

LOVE IT when we can make a shopkeeper's day! Thanks so much for your comment, Maggie. Hope everything at Heartware is going great . . . and give Benny love and rubs from us at Bean Up The Nose!
