Hey Reader, If you're a reseller or booth owner, it's time to start getting out that fall inventory. Yes, I know school hasn't even started yet and it feels way too early. But trust me . . . In the retail world, seasons move quickly and you wanna be ahead of the game. Don't worry, you don't have to go full orange pumpkin mode quite yet! Just start transitioning away from those beachy, cool colors and start introducing some cozier vibes and textures to your space. A few easy ways to start the fall transition: 👉 Create a "back to school vignette" with a cute child's desk, chalkboard, and sharpened pencils displays in a pretty milk glass vase 👉 Stack up a few quilts in a hamper or basket 👉 Ask your neighbor if you can cut a couple of her pretty hydrangea stems (or get some from your own yard if you are so fortunate!) and let them dry a few days. Then tuck inside vases or behind art on a shelf, just a subtle signal of coming fall. 👉 Bring in vintage art that signals the fall season (think beyond just falling leaves, also hunting themed or equestrian art fits with the season). See what I mean? You don't have to go all out yet, but a few touches will freshen up your space and help signal what's in store to your customers.

Happy Wednesday Reader, When we travel to England to source for The Found Collection, we do a lot of fair shopping.

And the video also has a bit of footage from historic downtown Lincoln, including the Lincoln Cathedral and Castle, as well as...
Happy Wednesday Reader, The more time I spend in England, the more I appreciate antique majolica. It's just so . . . extra. ☺️ Colorful, ornate, and sometimes totally strange. It's the perfect Victorian era decor, with all it's quirks and over-the-top-ness. I'm sharing my burgeoning love of majolica with you all today over on the blog, and offering a quick intro into the history of this kind of pottery. If you're curious what makes these pieces so unique, you can click below to head over and...
Happy Wednesday Reader, Word has gotten out about this England container shipping thing I'm doing, and so lots of people have started asking me about my business. I can understand their curiosity . . . it's not quite the normal business you encounter every day. But one thing I often hear during these chats is something like, "that sounds really interesting, but antiques don't fit into our home style." I get it 😉 You say antiques and people start to imagine a room that looks like it's stranded...
