We Rode On Horses Made Of Sticks
Blog readers, Jane and I sincerely apologize for the lack of posts by both us of lately. We are in the whirlwind of just opening a bricks and mortar store in Hamilton, Ontario for White Elephant and turning it into something truly sustainable. White Elephant is a vintage boutique, focusing primarily on our vintage collections, but we also carry jewelry, handbags, accessories, prints and paper goods from a number of lovely and talented artists that we've met through Love It A Lot and Etsy. It's a really exciting time for us, and once everything begins to slow down, we'll be back here like never before. Because you know, we'll have all that time now that we've quit our jobs and can surf the internet ALL DAY LONG.

Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteOH YEAH!!! This video rocks! I am so thrilled that you are carrying Chakra P. goods!
ReplyDeleteThe shop looks f a b u l o u s ! ! !
I wish you so much success!
The store looks incredible! Also, who's incredible cover if Bang Bang is that? I must know.
ReplyDeleteIt's Petula Clark! And thanks everyone!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun video, and what a gorgeous shop! I was actually interested in the M megaphone (hoping to convince my son William that the M, is in fact a W - he's four months old, so I should be able to fool him). I see it is no longer in your Etsy shop, but in your actual store - has it been sold? If not, I might be driving to Hamilton! Best of luck with your new endeavour.
ReplyDeleteHi Tara,
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately the megaphone just sold last week. We were a little sad to see it go as well, because we actually use it a lot.
Oh shoot - serves me right for not acting sooner. Thanks for the update though, and maybe it is for the best as with two boys I am thinking my household would have become even louder ... As our 2 year old has a vintage globe collection in his room, I might need to make the drive to Hamilton nonetheless. It looks like you have a lovely selection.
ReplyDeletewow, that's great! i've been a fan of this site and your white elephant etsy for quite a while now (and am a fairly new fan of mike long!) so i'll be sure to check it out the next time i'm in hamilton. good luck!
