Holiday sales abound everywhere we look, but all the big chain advertising is already wearing us thin. It has us thinking about our local stores and the Boston shop owners who have committed to showcasing great design year-round. We've covered Pod on AT Boston in the past but yesterday we received their paperless catalogue via email and wanted to share some of it here with you...

Pod has a wonderfully edited collection of modern and vintage goods in a refreshingly down-to-earth space at 313 Washington Street in Brookline Village. This is just a peak at some of the products in their ever-changing inventory this month...

More from Pod's December catalogue here and items in their temporary online store here. But of course nothing quite comes close to a visit to their lovely store in Brookline Village.
