trans display
Wondering what the display looks like after the new year? Trans is the term we use for the short periods between major seasons, like a transition. So right now we are in between holiday and spring. You have to catch this display in the stores quick! It's only up for a few weeks. Don't you love the hammock??
Our creative director for the display team saw these plastic hanging cane baskets at an airport gift shop in Hong Kong and loved them. So she placed a large order to have shipped to the US. Each basket came with a little cookie inside. Free People had no use for the cookies, and it would have been a nightmare to get them through customs, so we had it arranged that the cookies be donated to an elderly folks home in Hong Kong.

Meh, I can take it or leave it. Personally I have always hated Spring in January and Christmas in September. So I get the "transition " thing, but it's looking like a store about to close down.
( although a super cute one for certain)

Hi Kylie,
There are instances when we have sold parts of our display, but more often we do not. I will post on the blog if there is anything for sale in the future. I'm glad you love them!!
