And these are just the teapots! Have you ever fallen for a place online and were then able to visit it "in person" later?
I found British Isles online when I was searching for more tin plates, like the ones I bought at Windsor Castle. Voila! I found the plates and when they shipped I noticed that the business was actually a bricks and mortar store in Houston. I go to Houston, I thought, and I put it on my list.
Well the "real" store exceeded my expectations and my sister-in-law recalls me saying, "Just to be clear, I want to stay 9 more days, just in this store, so that I can look at everything." Ha!
British candy, English tea, Scottish sausages, paper goods, sweaters, linens...it is amazing. Just look at this selection of tea and biscuits!
I want to back...to England and to British Isles in Houston. What a delight!
