2020 Spring Store


Even amidst COVID, we were able to open our Spring Pop-Up Store for 4 weeks in Nanaimo North Town Centre in June. Thank you to everyone who came in or phoned in orders during this time! We had a chance to show some of the new products that had arrived from India and to connect - at a distance - with many of our regular customers. Other popular items included our “flower pot baskets” from Vietnam and our “Dr. Bonnie Henry” necklaces from Nepal.

It also gave a very good opportunity to practice and to learn what we need to do to open our main seasonal store later in the year. We were fully set up with hand sanitizer, wipes, plexiglass and markers on the floor. A special thank you to everyone who was flexible and patient as we all learned what we needed to know. We look forward to welcoming everyone for a safe shopping experience in the fall.
