Two friends who share a passion, but for different things, have joined together to bring their interests to the Montavilla neighborhood.
Barbara DiOrio specializes in the world of frangrances and other fine things-hence the name of her new business, Fine Things. Her shop features hard-to-find fragrances and miniature perfumes, not to mention a wide variety of collectibles for everyone.
Sharon Lucero caters to the doll and bear collector in her shop, Sharon's Dolls & Bears, with a selective array of products for the young--and the young at heart.
Fine Things and Sharon's Dolls & Bears are located at 6900 NE Glisan. They are open from 11 am to 6 pm, Tuesday through Saturday and can be reached at 503/255-4838.
