Store 518, General & Fine

Designer Nadia Tarr (of the famed, wear-it-a-million-ways Butter by Nadia dress) decided to open a shop in Carroll Gardens when her insatiable flea marketing got out of hand and she needed a repository for all the treasures she had mined over the years. It's easy to tell that she loves everything in the store, from pristine '50s Mexican dresses to blue enamel Victorian lockets. Her clothing line is also here, plus every conceivable kind of retro-packaged candy. 518 Court St. CARROLL GARDENS 646-256-5041,store518.com

Swallow

Newer Japanese glass is a big draw at this gallerylike spot filled with opalescent bowls with edges so soft they appear to be melting, tiny paper-thin bud vases with organic, amorphous openings, and rainbow-hued sake glasses.
