A Visit to Robin's Vintage Suitcase

As one of my local sponsors, Robin's Vintage Suitcase, I'll be sharing photos of what's new in the store and giving updates on what's happening. Summer is in full swing with lots of bright colors in wreaths and accessories. The garden room is brimming over with outdoor finds for your summer porches and garden spots, and since vintage garden items are a favorite of mine it's always the first place I head.



Robin carries a wonderful mix of antiques, vintage, and one-of-a-kind finds. Also the latest in accessories from market. I'm so ready for sunflowers!!








This wonderful vintage French sofa 
is dressed in a heavy linen type burlap.


Robin's creativity is showcased at every turn,
 as in this fun lampshade tied with bits of this and that.






lot's of dishes and silver


There's a great selection of wonderful vintage furniture pieces, too.



Robin also creates beautiful wreaths and flower arrangements.







Fun pillows and accessories





Robin's party room, will soon become a Tea Room. The Vintage Veranda is in the planing process and is scheduled to open July 9. Stay tuned for more news on this. It's a gorgeous space with a tried and true caterer and chef at the helm. Personally, I can't wait!! Springfield is short on spots for a girl's lunch.

I found this great frenchy "cafe" pillow for my daughter in St. Louis, as I'll be heading up for a visit next week. More on what's happening next week...I have an adventure in the works!



more photos from Robin's Vintage Suitcase,
and a 3 Year Anniversary Give Away teaser coming soon,

    What a fantastic shop! Wish I could shop there. I see she has the same bolster pillow with french script on it that I have on my sofa. I love the numbered eye chart and that gorgeous lamp with the decorative lamp shade!

    What a great place to shop, I love the bee skep, the metal basket of pots and that white buffet with the eye chart! I can imagine you need to have a good amount of time set aside to visit so that you don't miss out on anything! t.xoxoo

    I think I spied a couple of 'must have items'. Oh boy. I'll be headed over there this afternoon. And that is great news about the tea room. I thought that she should have one in there as soon as I saw the space. Can't wait. I agree with you, Springfield could use a few more options for 'girls lunch spots.'

    It's a good job I live in a different country to that store, ad my wallet would be in danger of being emptied regularly :-)

    Great shop! It looks like one of those places where you think you've only been looking for a few minutes, but it's more like an hour. I was at a shop like that today. Always fun to see new things. Thanks for the tour!
