Blissful Domain, a vintage furniture and clothing store, opened last Wednesday at 1523 Lititz Pike, next to shoe store RB Shap.

The 800-square-foot store, in a former dry cleaners, specializes in second-hand furnishings, including flea market finds of the store's owner, Laura Esh. In readying the store, Esh painted it an eye-catching bright pink.

Esh, daughter of an antique dealer, says her new store is roughly divided between furniture and clothing. She also offers jewelry, with a focus on one-of-a-kind items. And she sells some new items.

Esh describes the collection as shabby chic, a style in which items fashionably show their age. She says she plans to offer design and decorating consulting services.

Hours: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday to Thursday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. Hours will be readjusted after the holidays.

Leese I-Wear, an optical store, opened two weeks ago at 1601 Oregon Pike, across from CVS Pharmacy.

The roughly 650-square-foot store carries a full line of frames, sunglasses and lenses and features several brands for budget-conscious shoppers.

The store also carries other items, including a line of skincare products. Kimberly Leese is the store's owner.

Hours: 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday; 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday; 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
