I love filling my home with vintage finds; things that have a story, that have belonged to others and created all kinds of memories. It’s for this reason I adore The Consortium in Romsey.

A treasure trove of gorgeous homewares, furniture, glassware and fabrics, it’s the type of shop you have to pay a visit to regularly to uncover the beautiful items it has in stock each week. If you ask any of the staff where an item came from, they can usually tell you the story as to how they got it, where they sourced it from, and how it got to them.

The store is beautifully curated, and you still get the opportunity to have a little bit of a rummage to find something hidden, which is part of the magic of vintage!
