***Shop Update ***

The shipments we have been waiting for has finally arrived ! Shop will be closed July 1st but back to our regular hours 11-5 wednesday -friday and 11-6 Saturday.

As a lot of your know I’m a grandma now and for the next while I’m going to be spending time with my family and to be honest just slowing it all down. I started the shop 30 years ago (a wee 600 sq feet, vintage and Canadian made) when my daughter was 3 months and my son 2 as I just couldn’t balance all the demands on my time. Back in the day there was no internet, no Sunday shopping and me & my staff of 1 were open 4 days a week.

It feels like it’s coming full circle as I look for balance again admidst a faster paced, twirling world that I’m ill-equipped to handle well.

If it wasn’t for Zoe and the support staff of Meg, Abbey, Jess and Rosie (now gone but kept our IG and more full for so many years) I may have been caught in a world of juggling Russian Dolls, spilling out and crashing, their beauty lost in the chaos of never ending busyness.

So it’s with incredible privilege and so much support that I give this return to the "slow globe" a shot!

We are working on bringing back appointments as we know so many of you have asked for alternative hours and we hope to announce them soon.

But for now our hours will be:

Closed Sunday - Tuesday

Wed - Fri 11-5

Saturday 11-6
