June Happenings!

2011-06-14T08:45:00.000-07:00

Hello Prima Dora Fans!

These are exciting times at Prima Dora for three very different reasons.

First: Tempur-pedic is offering two awesome promotions. You can upgrade to a Tempur-pedic mattress set and save up to $200. You can also take advantage of the Model Closeout on either the DeluxeBed or ClassicBed and save up to $200. For example, if you are interested in a King DeluxeBed Set you would save $400. These promotions are good through July 10 or while supplies last. Tempur-pedic rarely has promotions, and these are amazing. Hurry in before they are gone!

Second: Father’s Day is this weekend! In honor of all the Dads out there we are having a Book Sale. From today through Sunday enjoy 25% off most of our books. We have a great selection of music, golf, beer, humorous, movie, Texas, Austin, and zombie books.

Third: South Congress is getting a makeover and the roads are being re-done. This is not impacting our traffic or parking. So don’t hesitate to head down here, see the street in progress and get all your gift shopping done. Maybe even enjoy a meal next door at Magnolia Café.

We truly appreciate every customer that walks in the door and hope to see your smiling face soon!

I am not a paper cup.

2008-04-08T12:59:00.000-07:00

This cup is not a paper cup
Posted Jan 19th 2008 6:31PM by Sarah J. Gim on Slashfood.com

If you pay any attention at all to celebrities or fashion or celebrity fashion, then you might know something about Anya Hindmarch's "I'm Not a Plastic Bag" bag that created quite a mad rush when they hit US stores. Many designers took advantage of the cheeky eco message, some simply creating more re-usable shopping bags, and others taking and tweaking the "I'm not a ___" message, like Decor Craft Inc., which has created the "I Am Not a Paper Cup" cup. Naturally, coffee mugs are reusable, but DCi's "I Am Not a Paper Cup" reminds coffee drinkers that even when taking coffee to go, you can help the eco cause by not using the disposable paper cups that will end up in landfill somewhere. The cups are porcelain with a silicone lid.

Now available at Prima Dora for $21. Come in and see our new green goodies.

Chocolate at Prima Dora!

2008-02-08T13:51:00.000-08:00

This was just printed in the Chronicle. Come by and satisfy your sweet tooth!

Arte y Chocolate

Arte y Chocolate is named in tribute to the raw chocolate that comes from Central America and to demonstrate the owners' desire to pair chocolate with art. Austin native Krystal Craig and New Yorker Lila Browne met in 2004 and put their mutual interest and experience together to form a fine-chocolate company. They spent a year researching the best chocolates, equipment, trends, techniques, and people in the industry. With technical advice from Jacques Torres and inspiration from the work of Jean Pierre Wybauw, Arte y Chocolate was born in 2005.

AYC's handcrafted products use dark chocolate from El Rey, Valrhona, and Schokinag. Many of the chocolates are covered with beautiful printed patterns whose colors and designs hint at the flavors inside. They use 24-karat edible gold; luster dusts; dried flowers; organic ingredients like butter, cream, flavoring oils, toppings, and honey; candied orange and lemon peel from Paris; feuillantines from Belgium; and local inAgredients such as Tito's Handmade Vodka and Ruta Maya coffee. A variety of vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free products is available.

For Valentine's Day, AYC is offering chocolate barks such as pink peppercorn-caramel, toffee-almond, cinnamon-pecan, and coffee-crepe crunch (3-ounce bags, $8). Bonbon assortments include raspberry, cognac-marzipan, PatisFrance orange peel, full-bodied espresso, blackberry, gardenia, and lavender honey with peanut butter (available in eight-, 12-, and 16-piece boxes, $18, $26, and $34, with larger sizes available).

AYC products are available online and at Talulah Bleu Tarrytown Florist, 2815 Exposition, and Prima Dora, 1912 S. Congress. AYC is currently building a retail facility on Hamilton Pool Road, scheduled to open next summer. – MM Pack

Important Holiday News!

2007-12-05T08:50:00.001-08:00

Happy Holidays Prima Dora Fans!!!

I am writing to tell you all the latest news at Prima Dora, especially concerning three big topics:

New Extended Holiday Hours
Tempur-Pedic Price Increase
Blue Santa Donations

Starting today Prima Dora will be staying open later to give you more time to complete your shopping list. We will be open Monday-Friday 10-9 and Saturday-Sunday 10-6 until Dec. 16th. We will then be open 10-10 until Dec. 23rd. We will only be open 9-5 on Christmas Eve. Make us one of your stops on the way home!

Beat the Price Increase! As of Jan. 2, 2008 all Tempur-Pedic mattress prices are going up $300-$500! Act now to avoid the higher price. Feel free to stop in or call us if you have any questions.

South Congress rushes to the rescue to help Blue Santa!
And you can beat the parking crunch in SoCo on First Thursday by parking at One Texas Center (garage available at Barton Springs Rd.@ S. 1st Street), walking one block west to S. Congress Ave. and riding the FREE Orange 'Dillo which runs every 10 minutes from 6-11 pm, from the Hyatt along S. Congress to Live Oak and back!
The annual Blue Santa community-wide effort to collect donations of toys for Austin's children experienced an unusual shortfall(about 40,000 gifts short!) this year due to bad weather on the Chuy's parade day last weekend.
You can make a donation of a new toy or a contribution of money when you come to the First Thursday celebration on South Congress Ave. on December 6th. In fact, some merchants have toys for sale as well, making it an easy option for you to purchase and donate all in one visit!
All toys need to be delivered by Dec. 10th to the collection center(Prima Dora is one), so the time is NOW to join the March of the Toys for Austin's families in need.

We have stocked up this year in anticipation of all of your holiday gift needs. We have a wonderful selection of stocking stuffers, hats & scarves, jewelry, frames, stuffed animal slippers, bodycare and funny must-haves. We are your one-stop gift shop.

We hope to see all of soon!

Wishing you amazing brightness,

purity and truth,

eternal joy and

everlasting love!

Happy Holidays!

The things I see through the Windows of Prima Dora

2007-06-08T12:50:00.000-07:00

Last night during First Thursday, I saw an array of things that make this city unique. Below is the list.

A man wearing a pirate hat carrying a guitar case, who we dubbed Captain Fender.
A person in a hotdog outfit shopping for hand-blown glass pipes.
A group of four that looked like they were on their way to an S&M Club.
An awesome drumline.
Attire ranging from hippie dresses, to cowboy hats, to business suits, to tennis skirts.

What can I say, Austin is Weird. And we love it that way.

Sunday June 17 is a big day for those Special guys in your life---Father's Day.

We have funny cards, mugs that say I Love Daddy, Sports books, pens, watches and more. We also recently expanded our section on Superman, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and more.
