Possum Umbrellas and Totes

The Olympics are not the only good thing coming out of Vancouver lately. These colorful and unique umbrellas are designed and manufactured in Vancouver by Estella of Possum. "While standing amongst a sea of black umbrellas on yet another rainy day in Vancouver, ...it dawned on her that through design and colour, dreary days can be brightened." The result are these wonderfully designed umbrellas that have a special feature--each umbrella comes in a case that when unfolded becomes a market bag--which is brilliant because the umbrella can then be stored back in the zippered pocket while shopping. Come see them for yourself or purchase them online here.

Flowers in the shop this week include:

  • Love Story Oriental lilies
  • dark pink peony tulips
  • white ranunculus
  • pink/orange snaps
  • blue agapanthus
  • green/white arabicum
