Golden Rule

What would you do if you inherited a seventeen-foot Uhaul packed floor to ceiling with clothing, furniture and jewelry?

For Golden Rule proprietor, Wynde Dyer the answer was to open a shop.

Golden Rule feels like an interactive photo album, a memoir of Wynde’s mother who passed away and left behind a treasure trove collected throughout the 20^th century.

But Golden Rule is more than just vintage retail, it is an art gallery. Every month the inventory changes to match the art and the furniture produced by the featured artist. I was able to stop by the store just this last Saturday to check it out, not realizing how difficult it would be to escape once I was immersed in Dyer’s world. I was transfixed by relics, photos and a crocodile skull on the back of a sofa next to the snake skin touch-tone phone. Every detail counts and plays off the art of Tasha Liegel and Lauren Ebaugh. The show titled Little Worlds is on display through the end of July.

So check it out for yourself…
