Secret Leaves is big in Bulgaria!

We are featured in two magazines right now--one of them, interestingly, is a Bulgarian publication called Intro. As nearly as I can tell, it is a cross between Vanity Fair, People and InStyle. So there we are, four full pages of color photos, wedged right between Snoop Dogg, Metallica and a bunch of pretty Bulgarian boys wearing the latest edgy fashions.

Sadly, as it is in Cyrillic (or some other language that we can't read), we have no idea what it says. No matter...the spread looks great and we are very grateful to Tanya at Intro for featuring us and for sending us a copy of the mag all the way from Bulgaria.

We are also featured in the September/October issue of St. Louis At Home magazine. It is a gorgeous issue and we are thrilled to be included.

A big thanks to editor Christy Marshall, writer Stefene Russell and photographer Whitney Curtis of At Home for the wonderful job they did on the feature.

Love to all,
Sharon and Ann

Country by Mail - gorgeous Swedish style

We would like to take the opportunity to introduce you to one of our customers. We recently filled an order for Maria at countrybymail.se. Maria is the proprietor of a gorgeous Swedish web store by the same name. We were so thrilled when our products showed up on her site, because they were so beautifully styled and photographed. See for yourself:

These Take Cover Journals were selected for Maria's store with her soft color palette and French-influenced style in mind. We think they fit perfectly with her look!

Here are a couple of other Secret Leaves items on Maria's site:
Secret Leaves Danse Rustique

French postcard gift enclosure

And finally, some of her other beautiful items:
Seltzer glass

Bavarian coffes cups

Lavendelfylld

mercury glass votives

If you have not visited her site, do yourself a favor and take a look. And if you are reading this from Sweden...buy something for gosh' sake!
