Welcome to Spring and Summer 2012.
After a great Easter break - the shop door is now open! Please click the link below to visit. We will be having some very jolly items in over the coming months. If you love retro seaside then this is the place to be!
We have even more items in stock made out of vintage retro fabrics - take a look at the beach bags and cushions - perfect for beach huts and campervans alike!
As the weather hopefully gets warmer we will be including some great items for the British beach holiday - but always with that retro nostalgic feel. Keep updated with our Facebook page - please feel free to join - all customers are welcome and we are never far away at retro.on.sea.com
This will be my first summer at the shop - I really want my customers to feel at home and experience a great coastal feel when they visit the site. Please ask as many questions as you need to - add us to your favourites and just remember that the delivery of your items is just as important as the initial purchase. I am more than happy to combine postage and each package is carefully wrapped for you
to enjoy!
We really do need a great British summer and to give you a taste of the coast I was lucky enough to spend the day yesterday
In Falmouth, Cornwall....
and what a lovely day it was!
Not the sunniest of weather, but the sea still looked clear - best viewed from a boat rather than 'in it' at this time of year! Seagulls were never far away and I wandered through the town, soaking up it's nautical feel and regional accents! Fantastic! With my love of photography there is always plenty of great subject matter - just by heading down the alleyways that lead to the sea I was in my element.
Great for shopping too - with a sprinkling of vintage and retro throughout I could easily loose a few hours. A quick visit to the Falmouth Art Gallery was well worth doing - with gems from Maritime artist Charles Napier Hemy and the most beautiful Pre-Raphaelite paintings by John William Waterhouse.
Visit www.falmouthartgallery.com for more details.
So I will leave you with a few photos hot off the press from yesterday...
Wherever you are this week...by the sea.....
or just dreaming about it...
Have a great one!
Speak to you all soon,
Ros.
