The customer called and asked for an Advent purple bow with silver accents.  We knew we had some purple ribbon, but with gold edges, so our intrepid leader Margaret Pokorny went to Jacobson’s on Albany Street to find Advent purple ribbon.  Many store employees were polled to see which of the many purples qualified as Advent purple, and I believe Google Search was consulted.  We wish the photograph had captured the actual color of the bow – it looks blue here, but it really is a rich, true purple.  The designer was inventive, and we hope to hear some feedback from the man who ordered it!
