A Thank You Sale 25% off

For fourteen years, Lost & Found has grown slowly and organically. Some of you have been here since the painted furniture days. Some of you joined for vintage finds. Some of you simply love the feeling of bringing something old back into a home. I’m deeply grateful for all of it, and have enjoyed every season along the way in this business. Behind the scenes over the last 12 months, I've been journaling, brainstorming and planning for a shift that feels like the next right step. In this most recent season, I’m thoughtfully refining what I want Lost & Found to look like. This means mainly focusing on fewer, more intentional pieces. Items with rich history and a heritage feel. My recent trip to England was a big part of this process, and I really look forward to telling you more about that trip and what's coming soon. As part of the transition, I’m offering 25% off everything currently in the online shop for one week. It’s a way to help clear space before moving into what’s ahead. The sale runs through Sunday, February 22nd. No discount code is needed, when you head to the shop you'll see all the sale prices listed. Next week after the sale ends, the online shop will pause briefly while I reorganize, refresh listings, and prepare for the next chapter. If you’ve had your eye on something, this is a good week to bring it home. Thank you for being part of this story, and for allowing it to evolve. Some amazing things are just around the corner 🤗

Hey there Reader, Scrolling around online looking or flipping through decor magazines, you've probably noticed how often blue and white shows up. It’s one of those color combinations that has stuck around for centuries, and it still works in homes today without feeling trendy or overdone. I just shared a new blog post all about decorating with blue and white: where the look comes from, why it’s lasted so long, and some simple ways to incorporate it into your home without changing everything....
One of the things I love about sourcing in Europe is how everyday objects were made with a quiet kind of beauty. Not necessarily meant to be decorative… but made well enough that they become beautiful over time. A few small French pieces went live in the First Arrivals online shop today, and I thought I’d share a little about them. First are a pair of old painter’s palettes. They're amazing examples of how the process of making art can become art itself. Layered with years worth of oil paint,...
Happy Friday Reader! My England YouTube video just went live this morning 🇬🇧 To be completely honest, I wasn't sure I had filmed enough footage to even have a video to share, the trip was such a blur 🫠 So I was pleasantly surprised when I pulled my camera videos and found plenty of behind the scenes footage to make a video I'm really proud of. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. And just fyi . . . at the 13:40 mark in the video I get pretty vulnerable and share more about this whole giant...
