Masten's

Denver is so great! I've lived here for nearly 3 years now, but I love it when I encounter a new neighborhood, street or area of town and discover the greatness that it beholds. Recently I was headed to an improv show in Uptown and arrived a little early. Much to my surprise and delight I stumbled upon Masten Fine Framing and Gifts. Oh.my.stars. 

I first spotted the window display and knew that I would love everything inside. Masten's not only sells my favorite eco-friendly bags, EnviroSax, but lots of other great products and gifts...like the VAPUR Anti-Bottle water bottle -- it's collapsible, lightweight, freezable, dishwasher safe, and BPA safe. I'm headed to the Amalfi Coast in Italy and want to stay hydrated - this will be perfect to take with me - it folds up, and can fit easily into my purse when empty. Brilliant. And they come in a number of vibrant colors, too.  Masten's Fine Framing and Gifts also sells custom fine framing - as the name suggests. What's better than a beautiful frame to match a priceless photo?

The owner, Reed Masten, is a great guy and delightful businessman. We began conversing about all of the fabulous items he sells and continued throughout my perusing and checkout. Part fine framing and part fine gifting – this is a little treasure of a place in the heart of Uptown. With gifts and home accents that are unique, eco-friendly, fashionable, and affordable – this is my new go-to boutique.

Reed updates his Facebook page - highlighting new products, sharing cool videos {like how to wear a scarf 25 ways} and posting about sales or special Facebook fan discounts. You've got to go check out Masten's yourself - from scarves and collectibles to candles and cards - home goods and gift goods. Why didn't I find out about this place when I moved here 3 years ago! Now you know and if you haven't been: you.must.go. And discover another reason why Denver is so great.
