12.01.2022 Greetings all, a change is in the air, A Few Beautiful Things will cease trading on Sunday the 13th of May 2018. Although the shop will no longer be trading we will still have a presence in the Howard Smith Building. Some our beautiful stock will form part of the decor for a new boutique venue space which will open at the beginning of June, more on that to come. We will now focus on those high teas we were planning to do as well as other special events, we are all about the... experience! If you have a lay-by don’t fear you will still be able to make payments and pick up from the coffee shop (Hoi Polloi). From today we will have 40% off selected stock. Friends, old and new drop by for a chat, share a memory, create one and join us for a glass of bubbly during our last week. We have loved having you in our lives and enjoyed sharing your stories, happy and sad we have experienced them all. A special thank you to Helen Lynn and family for giving permission for their beautiful grandmother to be the face our business. Elegance and style know no age and the image of a 21 year old taken in the early 1920’s proved to as relevant and current now as it was then. Thank you for sharing part of our journey, remember it’s not the end, we are at a crossroad and we are adjusting our compass to take a new direction. Our very best wishes to you all, much love. Colleen, Anne, Dell, Teal and Liv See more
