We'd just spent Mother's Day weekend visiting family in Sedona. There's something so magical about this high desert. The red rocks...the trees mixed in with the massive cactuses...the sound of the howling winds. Even though we visit quite often, each time is just as intriguing. The weather was simply gorgeous so we decided to play around with the camera.....

Anyone who's ever gone "junking" knows exactly what we mean...that feeling you get when you find something amazing. This time we didn't actually go junking per se, but we did come across some insane 60's & 70's deadstock vintage. Stuff that has been stored away in their original boxes for 40+ years. It's funny how the tape on these boxes disintegrated into tiny pieces while being opened. Below is one of our great finds: 1970's dashiki from Hatari. Here is a link of an advert from the Sept. 17th, 1976 issue of the Lawrence Journal World. We have all sizes & colors mentioned except for wine. They will soon be available for purchase online, or just pop in the store to see what we have in stock. There's so much more deadstock goodness so stay tuned...

Europe is always exciting and inspiring.....the flea markets in Paris, the shops of bustling London, the history and beautiful landscapes of Prague and the nightlife, art and vintage in Berlin. We decided to take this mini trip over the holidays. We crammed all of these amazing cities in just under 2 weeks. While it was cold, it was an awesome trip...the Christmas lights, the shops, the food, the people, everything was just amazing! Here's a mini slideshow of some photos we'd like to share. We also brought back a few goodies for the shop which we'll be posting here so check back soon :) oh, and Happy New Year!

A Dickens Christmas Faire

What a concept...This is a must for anyone who lives near or plans to visit San Francisco during the holidays. It is a themed Christmas faire based around the Victorian era of London, England. It was created in 1970 by my (Joel) uncle Ron and aunt Phyllis (the same creators of the original Renaissance Faire). This is a weekend only event and it runs for 4 weekends through Dec. 18, 2011. It is great fun for the entire family and will definitely get you in a festive mood for the holidays.
