    Monte Farber and Amy Zerner, a Springs couple known for their success in interpreting such branches of the occult as tarot and astrology for a mass audience, opened their new shop last weekend in the Village of East Hampton, next to Rowdy Hall in the Parrish Mews off Main Street. At the Enchanted World Emporium, starting tomorrow from 1 to 8 p.m., the author and artist will make available locally all the things they have sold far and wide for many years.

    The new White’s in some ways looks older than the old White’s, which is a good thing. When the new owners, Nyco Chemists, purchased White’s Pharmacy, which had been a mainstay of East Hampton’s Main Street since 1873, they did what every new homeowner in the Hamptons seems to do: Gutted the place. The result is a fine-looking store combining old details such as a stamped tin ceiling and an antique-y logo mosaic on the front entrance. The new owners, who added the drugstore to their portfolio of two others in August, also gave it a vintage name by rechristening it White’s Apothecary.

    Jillian Rennar wears a rather large gold anchor around her neck, symbolic of her new business at 721 Main Street in Montauk called Candied Anchor, a candy store that is so much more.

    Two huge crystal chandeliers light up the small space, which at just 220 square feet is filled to capacity with nostalgic-type candies, such as Smarties, Red Hots, Mary Janes, and Fruit Stripe gum, plus gourmet candies, fresh popcorn, frozen sorbets, drinks, and party decorations and treats.

Accolades for Ad Firm

    Blumenfeld+fleming, a marketing, advertising, and design firm in Montauk, has won five platinum and six gold awards in the 2014 Hermes Creative Awards Competition.

    The firm, headed by Lynn Blumenfeld and Jill Fleming, won platinum awards for a BMW of Southampton magazine ad, a brochure for the architect Erica Broberg Smith, websites for Fresh Hamptons restaurant in Bridgehampton and Smart Sport Surfacing, and a radio spot for Suffolk County National Bank.

    When Beth Lee Schlendorf purchased a memory foam mattress a couple of years ago, she had no idea that it would spark an idea to start a business. The synthetic slab, which she later discovered comprised more than 60 chemicals, was so smelly that she was warned by the store she purchased it from to air it out for between 24 and 48 hours. When she began to get headaches she was struck by the idea that she and her family were spending a third of their lives sleeping on a possibly toxic soup. It was a wake-up call that put her on a mission to find out what mattresses are made of.
