I'm posting to share my happiness for my best friend who just celebrated her 3rd anniversary of beginning her own small business, Firefly, on Glenwood Avenue in Raleigh. If you like fun , cool shoes--like Fluevog, Camper, Faryl Robin, Bronx, Puma and PF Flyers to name a few-- (and clothes and bags and jewelry, etc) you have to check it out. Her website has great pictures of her selections, but you have to go into her store to get the whole picture. The readers of the Independent just voted her store Best Kick-Ass Shoes in the Triangle. Her website is fireflync.com.

I would love to hear about other fun small businesses in the Triangle if anyone wants to share!
thanks!
