Was once a store down 'Poplar Lanes' off High St Christchurch New Zealand. Closed by the earthquake it is now a hop-up shop, hopping up at various locations around Christchurch & New Zealand. Whimsical gifts, trinkets & accessories, quirky retro/vintage items and local handcrafted designs.

Gloriously nostalgic Little Golden Books
'Follow The White Rabbit' will be bringing a whole pile of these beauties to the final 'Winter Wonderland Market' at Canterbury University this coming Wednesday. These lovely little books with their shiny gold and black spines, take you back to those cosy, carefree days of childhood. 'Poky Little Puppy' is always a favourite along with Tootles, Scuffy the tugboat, The Saggy Baggy Elephant and The Twany Scrawny Lion. I have to admit I personally loved the fairytale ones - Snow White & Rose Red, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. The pictures bring back those dreams and wonder of being a little girl. I wanted their dresses!
