Our Story

Welcome to Tide & Thyme, a boutique rooted in love, joy, and the beauty of everyday moments.  After a fulfilling career in pediatric nursing, I decided to follow a new path---- One that embraces the lessons my late parents taught me:  that life is prescious, tomorrow is never guaranteed so cherish each day as if it were your last.

Tide & Thyme was born from this belief.  It's more than just a store---it's a space created with heart....where every item is carefully chosen to spark happiness, invite connection, and bring a smile to someones face, if only for a moment.  Nestled in the heart of beautiful Newburyport, our boutique reflects the charm, warmth, and coastal spirit that make this community so special.

Celebrating Local Artistry

We’re proud to feature the work of local artists and makers whose creativity and craftsmanship bring our shelves to life. From handcrafted leather items, recycled military tents and coastal-inspired home goods....to thoughtful gifts and one-of-a-kind finds....every item at Tide & Thyme is handpicked with love. Our pieces tell a story—and by supporting local talent, we’re helping those stories reach more hearts and homes.
