Lemons & Clover: Sunny Spring Finds

I took a big jump I've been meaning to take for a few months now. I opened a new Etsy store. I'm not ready for you to see the inside just yet. There are only a few posts and a simple banner, but once I get it all dolled up I will invite you all for the grand opening.

Part of me feels like I'm deserting Dahlila, Found--and I'm not!! (I'm telling myself this more than you.) It's a bit like having a second child: you still adore your first baby, but now she has to share the love.

Below are some great spring finds you will soon find in the new shop: bright colors, sunny yellows, grassy greens, cobalt blues. Fun for stashing cookies or planting flowers. I am going to love running this shop!

Blankets: Fall 2010

It's hard to imagine on this triple digit summer day, but I've been storing up for my fall collection. I should be out at the beach but I'm deep in wool blankets. Send iced tea. :-)

Vintage wool blanket in the perfect Pink Grapefruit. Great for chilly summer nights, evening beach parties, picnics in the park.

Stay tuned for fall shoes, curios, back to school train cases, luggage and fashion accessories.

The Sunflower

I fell in love with this bright yellow suitcase the moment I spied it. But I am in the business of selling vintage. If I kept everything I fell in love with, well, I might be out on the street.
One inspired and lucky soul will fall in love with it too, I'm certain. The suitcase will get a whole new home, life, adventure. That makes me pretty happy as well, especially if they send me photos! That makes it all worth while.

xxoo, dahlila.
