We have been thinking about how to get our shop up and running for some  time now, and although we are intrigued by the idea of having an online  vintage store, we want more than that. We want the interaction, a way to  host vintage-inspired, dress-up tea parties for children, and to sell  warm cups of tea while people shop for women's and children's vintage  clothing. We have considered trying to get a food cart and expand it to  selling retail (the food cart business is thriving in  Portland, and Ladybird had experienced it back at the University of Madison as  well). We were thinking today, how clever it would be to find a vintage  travel trailer to house our beautiful wares and teacups! We could come  to festivals, different neighborhoods, flea markets, and sell our goods,  maybe settling in a lovely food cart pod along the way. I'm not sure if  there are other folks doing this around here, but if they are, we would love to be  your neighbor and start a mobile shopping community in Portland! Spring  2012?
