It is funny how trends in dishware and linens change. I just inherited my great-grandmother's floral print china from Japan, and although I love it for it's sentiment and heirloom quality, I don't suspect I'll be rushing to set the table with it this Thanksgiving. While we once needed the complete, matching set of everything, it is now more appealing to collect vintage silverware and eclectic serving pieces for their charm and mystery. Table linens once pressed and perfect are now better left wrinkled if just a little stained and tattered. They show more signs of love and memories this way.
For those of you with children to buy for, we have a big announcement. Blabla dolls now have changeable clothes and accessories. The blabla dolls have been hugely popular for years with their soft, knit construction and adorable animal and human characteristics. Where before the dolls had their clothes knit right on, there is now another option - dolls in their bloomers with removable cotton and knit dresses, shorts, sweaters, boots and hats to change in and out of! These make perfect gifts - also a great donation for our toy drive going on now at The Willows!
We just received amazing old books tied together with twine that make a beautiful display when lumped in groups.
Also, if you have an old encylopedia collection or some old children's books, you can also wrap an old leather belt around them to make a great display or find a neat korbel or other object for a fun bookend!
If you have some old books, but they've seen better days - just wrap the covers in burlap, linen or old paper to get a great monochromatic look on your shelves.
Put the books on the shelf first, then work in your display pieces - Brooke's tips are to keep the color palatte simple, add some sparkle, and relax! These items can always be changed up and moved around - in fact, that's what makes it fun!
We love changing our displays seasonally and whenever something new and amazing catches our eye.
