La Befana's

This is the best little gift shoppe ever. While up from Ga. to visit family, I happened upon this little gift shoppe tucked away in Montgomery NY. Absolutely loved it! So many wonderful and diversifed inventory. I was like Alice in Wonderland. Lovely jewelry, herbal teas, stones, and the aroma when walking into the store. So peaceful. The smokeless incense that permeated the shoppe was, as I was told "Josephs Rose" named after Laura ( the owners son.) Had to have some & of course the burner to go with it. Pictures, one of a kind handmade pocketbooks, chinese tea sets, angels chimes and the list goes on. Before I even realized it , an haur had slipped away. Laura is a lovely, patient & knowledgable shopkeeper. I always did love small shops better than malls. And this is the reason why. Best of luck Laura, will see you on my next trip

La Befana's is a fantastic store! On entrance, you can tell the energy inside is unlike most. Everything is so beautiful and smells so good, I felt calm and peaceful within just a few seconds of being inside. The friendly owner, Laura, made me feel very welcome and her knowledge was beyond impressive- she is astounding. Every product is beautiful and unique as well. Laura carries wonderful items I have never seen anywhere before! Can't wait to go back!

This store has this amazing smokeless incense. The owner makes some of the scents herself, and they are incredible! My house always smells good because of La Befana's.

La Befana's is a gorgeous store! The atmosphere radiates positive and warm energy, making anyone feel welcome. I frequently buy incense, jewelry, teas, sage, and stones at La Befana's- try the holiday chai, by the way, it is to die for. Whether for yourself or for a gift, La Befana's is sure to have something beautiful, original, and affordable.

When you first enter La Befana's you are greeted with a warm smile and a friendly hello from the owner, Laura. The wonderful smells of oils or smokeless incense heightens your senses and draws you inside. Beautifully decorated with separate sections for different product. This eclectic mix of old world meets new age is a refreshing experience. You don't feel as if you are in a store....it's like being home! Take the time to visit this magical place where time does not exsist. Bring a friend with you when you go! Tell Laura Jenna sent you!

What a find! This shop is a delight. I found a beautiful pair of earrings, unusual and reasonably priced. LaBafana is definitely a shop I will visit when I need a not-often seen gift. The selection is wonderful. Art work by local artists and wonderful scents and candles are all presented by a knowledgeable and very warm and friendly owner. I highly recommend a visit to LaBafana's!
