Terrarium

Love places that support NZ products! Some things they stock include beautiful leather handbags and wallets, Mackinven&co candles (which are my absolute fav), art (amazing dog photography) and then of course an array of terrariums. Great spot to pick up a present and the girls who own the place are so helpful!

Beautiful, beautiful store full of locally made goodies for the home. Candles, terrariums (obviously), lingerie and artwork. The store isn’t huge but you can tell that they’ve carefully selected everything that is in there and it appears to be up-​and-​coming brands as opposed to the well-​known ones, which I love.
They also seem to have a good relationship with all the makers. The lovely lady behind the counter knew about each of them and they’ve got their business cards on the countertop for you to take home. I spied these two incredible dog portraits, one of a labby and the other a bulldog (?), and being a new doggie mum myself wanted to know if she was based in Auckland and did commission work. The lady informed me that she did and gave me a business card to take home — brilliant!
