Brie’s Gift Gallery Continues to Expand Despite Sagging Economy
Brie’s Gift Gallery has expanded to Oakton Street Antique Centre in Arlington Heights. Due to the sagging economy and concerns about the environment, consumers are turning to recycling as a way to ‘go green’ and to sustain value for their hard-earned dollars. Purchasing antiques is a great way to recycle. Antiques give great style to the home and the quality is much better than new pieces.
