Mint The Shop

For the Love of Retro

I had a chat to Kirsty Wilkins from Balanced Life last month about how I landed up doing what I’m doing, and what tips I have for other people who may be thinking about starting their own venture. Have a read through my suggestions below…..

A Very Good Idea!

Thank you to Dala & Lizel from Ideas for including my little blog in the March addition of their Lifestyle section! Janine & Vashna your teapot and tiffin are famous : )

The Good Old Days

This H&L article is going back a few years to when Mint had a physical retail space. I’m so glad that I kept the mag – I don’t have many photos of my old shop, so this serves as a great memento!

Machen Squared!

This Elle Decoration article from their Spring 2007 issue featured both Mint and a book on Durban written by my (very clever!) brother, Peter.

Freshly Minted!

Another bit-piece from when Mint was a real-life shop! I’ve just realised that two mags used exactly the same heading, ‘Freshly Minted’ – I suppose there are only so many puns you can use with the name Mint!
