Petite Terra

In case you didn't know, terrariums are all the rage. Leslie Goldhahn, the designer behind Petite Terra, crafts delicate and artful miniature ecosystems in beautiful glass vessels. We are lucky enough to have several of them for sale in the shop. Maintenance of terrariums is very simple, the succulent varieties require only once a month watering.



I love the filament bulbs in this one!

Paris Loot

Every time we incorporate antiques in the shop they are quickly snatched up. Especially when we put a little work into making them fresh and modern. I decided to up the ante when I took a trip to France last summer and shopped at the Paris flea markets. I picked up a mix of vintage and antique pieces that are all stunning. They have finally arrived and you must stop by if only to admire them!
