Langley WA. On Whidbey Island
Today I was on Whidbey Island and went to Langley to the rug store.
I love this place, i'm a nomad at heart.
But it is very expensive, Certainly worth the workmanship!
So much to see, what with beads; scarves, robes, rugs, yurt decor, hats, and more... that I get seriously overwhelmed.
But I do wish it were my store!
My phone died, so I only got a few pics to share.
