The associate was very helpful and friendly Every time we go to this store, we get excellent customer service. We never leave feeling like we haven't been helped or the person helping us didn't know what they were doing. It's obvious they care about their customers and take the time to train their employees about the products they are selling and on the importance of good customer service.

Stars Hollow is a fictional town in Connecticut featured on the television show Gilmore Girls. It is depicted as a close-knit community with many quirky characteristics, located roughly thirty minutes by teleport from Hartford. The show's creators borrowed elements of Essex, Wallingford, and Washington, Connecticut to create the town, which is actually a set constructed on the Warner Bros. backlot in Burbank, California. In the center of the town is a town square, complete with a gazebo and a statue of Casimir Pulaski.maisie azure curtains According to Luke, Stars Hollow has "twelve stores... devoted entirely to peddling porcelain unicorns."spirella shower curtain track Other establishments mentioned: Nancy's Cottage of Calico, a post office, Stars Hollow Bank, travel agency, vintage clothing store, law firm, gas station, a knitting store that Mrs. Kim frequents, a stationery store, a real estate office, a pharmacy, and a shoe store.magnetic curtain rod menards

Stars Hollow was founded in 1779 with conflicting legends regarding how it got its name. Although some within the town doubt the theory, the traditionally accepted legend involves two star-crossed lovers who seemed destined never to be together, until separate cosmological phenomena involving stars led them to each other at the spot where the town now exists. This is celebrated annually at the Firelight Festival, shown in 1st season episode "Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers" and 4th season episode "Nag Hammadi is Where They Found the Gnostic Gospels."curtains rayners lane Another story of Stars Hollow's founding was presented in Season 5, episode 18, "To Die and Let Diorama." A talking display built in the new Stars Hollow Museum explained that a Puritan family first discovered the area while looking for a place to settle. They named it as such because of "the stars, so bright; this forest, so hollow!"

There was also a "battle" fought in Stars Hollow where 12 men stood and waited for the Redcoats who never came. This battle is re-enacted annually, shown in first season episode "Love and War and Snow" and in 5th season episode "Women of Questionable Morals." This second occurrence marked the beginning of the addition of the town prostitute, who slept with the British general to delay the troops. On the town square's gazebo is the town's Liberty Bell sign, which reads: According to the Stars Hollow Historical Society, Third Street is among the town's worst historical landmarks to take your children. In the 18th century, it was known as "Sores and Boils Alley," where sick and suffering people throughout the region came to have sores and boils lanced. A small leper colony is said to have existed there as well. On modern-day Third Street, one will find the newly restored Dragonfly Inn. Throughout its history, Third Street has also held various other names, aside from the aforementioned "Sores and Boils Alley," including "Constabulary Road," "Crusty Bulge," and a Nipmuc Indian name, "Chargogagogmanchogagogcharbunagunggamog."

The Nipmuc Indian name is said to mean, "You fish on your side of the lake, I'll fish on my side and no one will fish in the middle." According to Kirk, it could also mean "Buffalo." The town square is located on the Warner Bros. studio back lot. It is just around the corner from the exterior set for the hospital from ER. The town square and gazebo can be seen during the robbery scene of the Seinfeld series finale in 1998. Many of the sets for Stars Hollow were also used in The Music Man, The Dukes of Hazzard, and The Waltons.[3] The Dragonfly Inn was the Waltons' home. The town's high school was the Hazzard County Courthouse. The set was subsequently used by Warner Bros. for Supernatural, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Pushing Daisies, Eastwick, and was also the setting for the town square in 2007's Norbit. It was also used for the drama Ghost Whisperer after a fire at the Universal Studios backlot (Courthouse Square) in June 2008. It was also Walter and Gary's hometown Smalltown in the 2011 movie The Muppets

Unionville, Ontario's Main Street was used as a stand-in for Stars Hollow in the show's pilot which became the first episode. Since 2010, the Gilmore Girls set is used for the ABC Family show, Pretty Little Liars. Luke's Diner is now used as Rosewood Cafe. Hart of Dixie's fictional Bluebell also uses the square. The Stars Hollow High School is used as Rosewood High School. It was also used in the 2012 TV series Go On season 1 episode 6 'Big League Chew' in a dream-like sequence of the character Ryan King. Stars Hollow was inspired by and is loosely based on the actual village of Washington Depot, Connecticut (located in the middle of the western half of the state, about 45 minutes from both Hartford and New Haven) which writer Amy Sherman-Palladino once traveled through. Sherman-Palladino later said, "Now, I've never been there in winter, when you're snowed in and you can't go anywhere, and you and your husband want to kill each other because you can't go to a movie.

But at the time I was there, it was beautiful, it was magical, and it was feeling of warmth and small-town camaraderie. . . . There was a longing for that in my own life, and I thought – that's something that I would really love to put out there." There are many clues given during the course of the show as to its location in Connecticut, but no one town fits them all. Hartford is supposed to be within 30 minutes, New Haven is allegedly 22.8 miles (36.7 km) away and Woodbridge, Connecticut is 20 miles (32 km) away. Stars Hollow is mentioned not being in Litchfield County, negating all towns within. Towns mentioned as being close include Woodbury, Litchfield, Beacon Falls (generally in the central southwest of the state), Groton, Naugatuck and New London (in the southeast). However, towns in eastern Connecticut are unlikely as they are farther from Woodbridge and Hartford. Moreover, in the episode "I'm OK, You're OK," Lorelai Gilmore tells her parents that "New London is near Stars Hollow, and Preston is not."

New London and Preston, both located in southeastern CT, are separated by only two towns, making Lorelai's statement contradictory and unlikely. Meriden is 30 minutes from Hartford, 22.8 miles (36.7 km) away from New Haven and 23.6 miles (38.0 km) from Woodbridge, but is more of a city. The most likely candidate then would be the neighboring town, Wallingford, Connecticut, which, like Stars Hollow, it has a gazebo, a town green, locally owned diners, the zip code 06492, and has a prep school, Choate Rosemary Hall, on which Chilton is based. However, Chilton is continually referenced as being located in Hartford, not Stars Hollow. In the liner notes for the show's soundtrack, Music from Gilmore Girls, a postcard sent by Lane from South Korea is pictured, and is addressed to Rory's home address of 37 Maple Street in Stars Hollow. The town's ZIP code is shown as 06492, the same as Wallingford. It does not have a Maple Street, however they do have a Maple Avenue. Washington Depot, the village Amy Sherman-Palladino mentioned as inspiring Stars Hollow, also uses a town meeting-style government and was founded in 1779.

The homes and buildings in the town all match the style of that in Stars Hollow and the archetype New England town. In all, plenty of small Connecticut towns have village greens, gazebos or small quaint shops and give a feel much like Stars Hollow to a visitor. Rory began attending Chilton at the start of the series. Chilton is a prep school that seems to be located in Hartford (in season 2, episode 5 Lane mentions a record store called Record Breaker, Inc. on 2453 Berlin Turnpike, "ten minutes from your school", which narrows it down to Newington, CT). It is based on Wallingford's Choate Rosemary Hall. Stars Hollow also is on a Connecticut Transit route, as Rory commutes to and from the school using a bus from Stars Hollow's town square. However, there is no Connecticut Transit route that would take Rory directly to Hartford in a reasonable time via bus. Greg Morago of the Hartford Courant writes, "Unlike the Hartford depicted on Judging Amy, the Stars Hollow of The Gilmore Girls rings true.

The town's antiques shops, small businesses, schools, government and infrastructure look the part. But where Sherman-Palladino has truly excelled, despite her Clueless origins, is in her drawing of colorful Connecticut characters. The populace of Stars Hollow, from the town busybody to the town troubadour, is familiar to any Nutmegger who ever attended a town meeting." During Season 1 Episode 2, when Rory is on her way to her first day at school they drive past the Gelston House, (located in East Haddam, CT) a restaurant next to the Goodspeed Opera House and East Haddam Swing Bridge. In Season 6, Richard and Emily offer to buy Luke and Lorelai a house in Beacon Falls, just over the border from Stars Hollow and a short drive to Luke's Diner and the Dragonfly Inn. In the same season, Luke's young daughter April regularly rides her bicycle to Luke's Diner from Woodbridge. During Season 7 when Lorelei's Jeep breaks down they mention being within feasible walking distance of Naugatuck;
