Spring Time With Tilde
Tilde has a lot going on in this lovely spring time month of April, and are adding some new stock to their shelves. Swedish brand, Unit Portables will be a new addition to the shop for those of you planning adventures on foot in the wild and need a new pack. Some new jewelry will be introduced by Charlotte N.C. based designer, Laurel Denise who inscribes personal affirmations as in "Love Life", "Breathe" and "Life Whispers, Listen Closely" on her gold, silver and leather pieces. Both will be available tomorrow. Also debuting that day is a soap line that comes from Brooklyn called, Pelle Designs: Soaps shaped as natural occurring gemstones such as rose quartz, onyx, aquamarine and jade are hand made with vegetarian based glycerin and infused with essential oils. (Pelle's other sleek, modern and high end interior decor items are also worth checking out.)
Then on April 10th (yes, the very next day) another line of bags including totes, hand bags and backpacks will be added to the shelves. These bags from Fabric Horse are hand made in Philadelphia with environmentally conscience materials including junkyard salvaged seat belts and recycled yoga mats. (I'd be interested to see the cleaning process on their materials).
New art work covering their walls by abstarct Artist George Perrou (You may have seen him featured on Oregon Art Beat) is available right now along with Orla Kielly's last spring shipment of hand bags. The weekend of April 19th & 20th Tilde will be hosting a trunk show for one of their favorite jewelry designers, Tasi Designs. For her 5th annual appearance at the shop on Saturday the 19th you'll get to meet Taya, the lady behind the sparkle of Tasi (Noon-3pm). With every purchase of Tasi jewelry during this trunk show weekend, you'll be entered in a raffle to win the pretty necklace pictured below! (the largest necklace on the left) and 15% off your purchased piece. They have plenty of new additions of their tried and true favorite brands too, so I'd suggest heading over there to see for yourself all the treasures available.
