When my mom opened her first shop about 19 years ago, she had a big outdoor space where she made the most beautiful succulent arrangements and sold great outdoor furniture. She also had chickens in this space. When we became partners about 5 years later, we had to move our shop and take Henny and Penny home to live. We have a running joke - calling each other up at the shop and asking to order 50 or so chickens. The responses vary.... but we are very happy to now have a legitimate "yes! you can order 50 chickens" answer waiting on the line! These fantastic little cluckers come in different varieties and there is also a rooster and chicks in the mix. We think they are so fun for this time of year and can just see them as the most exciting thing in the Easter basket :) <3

Oh Spring colors! Don't they just make you happy!? We just received our favorite candles in all the beautiful Easter egg hues above. These look so pretty on the table... either a bunch of different colors mixed with all white dishes (also with blue and white)... or one special color mixed with anything! We absolutely love the hand painted flower glasses, the blue and white napkins, Astier dishes and the candles all mixed together. <3 

- these colors might be showing better on our instagram :) they are so rich and lovely- I am not sure they are showing properly here.

Blue and white always attracts us... it's a color combination that can be mixed with almost anything. We love different patterns of blue and white... mixed with Astier de Villatte ceramics and the sweet little hand painted flower glasses shown above. This together makes for a beautiful Springtime table.

So many lovely things are filling the shop. Our friend Julia just brought us a new batch of her tea cups of all shapes and sizes. We love these - they have so much character. Julia is so creative and talented as an amazing cook, gardener, maker... adventurer... and as of a couple year ago, a ceramicist. She makes these beautiful little cups- each with their own individuality. We just love them! The cups are shown here with wonderful gingham napkins in grey, new handprinted napkins with strawberries, figs, pomegranates and flowers, and a variety of other textiles that make great tablecloths, dish cloths, runners (we also wear them as scarves).  Also shown are some wooden spoons, a small grass broom (great for crumbs), hand painted flower glasses and hand blown glasses with a white rim around the top.

It is so fun to play with color.... and it's so exciting when you discover a magical combination. We were just rearranging as we were putting out new things and this pillow and throw caught our eye from two different areas of the shop. We love the soft pink cotton throw picking up the pink/lavender in the pillow.
