So with us being somewhat stranded at the moment and unable to take pics of our treasures, it seems like a very good time to have our BIGGEST SALE EVER! From today we’re knocking a massive FORTY PERCENT off all of our smaller items, and a very respectable THIRTY PERCENT off our furniture, with the […]

This may well be the strangest Easter weekend any of us will ever experience in our lifetime, but that doesn’t mean that it needs to pass unnoticed. In fact you probably have more time now to make it extra special! How about baking your own hot cross buns? Or getting the kiddiwinks to decorate the […]

So sorry for disappearing on you like that! With the world turned upside down recently, some of you may not even have noticed that Mint went on a sudden hiatus last week Monday, but we’re happy to announce that we’re back! I’m certain that everyone will have their own story to tell about the events […]

Continue readingCharming Home to Rent

Justin and I left Durban about five years ago now, and drove to Joburg with our pups, Scout and Jack, in the back of my Mint bakkie. We left behind a wonderful home, and amazing group of friends, and one of the most exceptional vets you’ll ever meet – a strange thing to reminisce about […]
