Mad for Plaid

As in fashion, home decor styles come and go. One season, painterly prints are the thing, only to be replaced by geometric prints the next. But there's one thing we know for sure: plaid prints never go out of style. And, as in fashion, plaid can be paired with traditional pieces but looks just as good when combined with a bit of glitz and glamour.

While technically, it may still be Summer, we can't help but look forward to the crisp Autumn air, pumpkin spice everything (maybe not everything) and cuddling up on the couch with loved ones. Enter Faribault Woolen Mill Company blankets. These classically stylish throws (in limited edition anniversary prints) perk up interiors and are made from the softest of soft lambs wool. 

While we're sure you'll love these gorgeous throw blankets, swoop in to the The Trove now to snap yours up. The company only made 300 of these babies and we snagged 6 of them. If you're mad for plaid like we are, run, don't walk.

Go Camping!

We Trovesters just live to travel. We explore high and low, near and far and we won't rest until we see all corners of this amazing planet. While some of our adventures are far flung, there's nothing quite like a little camping in the good old USA. Whether your idea of camping involves chopping wood and sleeping under the stars or not-quite-roughing it in a charming, rustic cabin with proper cocktailing accessories, we have the coolest and most stylish provisions for your outdoor exploits. And if you just want to decorate as if you're outdoorsy, we can help you with that too. 

Come shop our selection of Izola pine scented pillows, Swell travel bottles and cool Esperos canvas backpacks. 

“A great many people, and more all the time, live their entire lives without ever once sleeping out under the stars.”

Summer Weddings

We know June is typically the most popular month for weddings but as far as we can tell, the season's only just beginning! We stock so many lovely and unique gifts for the bride and groom, as well as the bridal party, you'll be thanked for going off registry.

Every couple will treasure (and use) gorgeous serving pieces for decades to come - especially when the pieces feature the flowers from the couple's ceremony. We simply adore this sweet, mis-matched set of unique champagne flutes. 

The coolest groomsmen around will dig our stylish accessories by Izola. We're obsessed with the truly unique bowties and pins by Brackish.

Cutie coffee mugs for every kind of couple. #lovewins

An elegant picture frame is a tasteful gift for parents of the happy couple. And in our experience, quality wine glasses are always appreciated.

Beautiful and delicate pieces are perfect for the loveliest of bridesmaids. The Mothers of the bride and groom will cherish a sweet pair of pearl earrings.

We're happy to offer special event ordering or personalization for a few of our pieces -- just ask!

 

Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Style

Stars & Stripes Forever!

Here's what we Trovesters love the most about America's birthday:

Kate: We have a new tradition of spending the 3rd of July with 6 other couples at the Continental Divide where we sing all our favorite patriotic songs. It's a fun evening filled with lots of love for our country and some of our dearest friends. 

Kim: The 4th of July is all about the revelrous celebration of our nation's birth. Thus, it's all about the fireworks, baby! Cue Katy Perry...

Melani: Nothing says 4th of July to me like all those cute red, white and blue desserts --- I love them all. I cap the night with fireworks on the beach while sipping a rosé, feeling grateful for family and neighbors. 

Mark: I love the long weekend at the lake with roaring bonfires and a tasty potluck BBQ. Simple and lovely. 

Leslie: I love to be out on the lake in an old fishing boat under a banner of pyrotechnics, listening to Neil Diamond's rendition of My Country Tis of Thee. I was raised in the military so the 4th of July is a fun holiday as well as a celebration of friends and families who've given so much to our country.

We wish you all a fantastic and safe holiday!
