Terrain

I love terrain, it’s especially lovely around holidays. Can you believe that Urban Outfitters Inc was originally going to make it into a chain, if only?!

this looks so pretty! Wow i’d love to go and make a day of it!

I know, isn’t it gorgeous! I swear I could live there! I was there back in June…here’s where I blogged about it: http://what-the-font.blogspot.com/2011/06/terrain-at-styers.html

I love Terrain!! I can spend hours on their online shop drooling over the most gorgeous products!

Joanna,
If this was a free trip, and you received free food and drink, spa treatments, a terrarium class, and other perks, you need to disclose that. This sounds as if you just picked up and went there on your own. According to OhJoy!, they invited bloggers there for the day. As a reader, I want to know what you received as a gift and what you paid for out of your on pocket.

Look at you in PA! One of things I asked for my birthday this year was to hang out Terrain for as long as I wanted with no complaints from the boyfriend while I wander for hours.

I love Terrain! I think I would have splurged on that velvet pumpkin, too. I may still…

This place looks fantastic. Lovely style! I would love to go there some day.

we definitely need more places like this in australia. ohhh jealousy, my old friend!

wow – amazing store! definetly got some good christmas gift ideaa.. thanks for sharing! i can totally see how people spend AT LEAST 2 hours there ;)

Such a lovely store! It must be great going instead of just browsing on the internet!

What a pitty its so far from Budapest!

Joanna i have seen their website before and always wanted to go there. I called the number once from their website and the woman on the phone told me there wasn’t a terrain store that it was only online!! My husbands family is in PA and we are there a lot so i would LOVE to know where it is located. Thanks for sharing!

We recently were looking at all the different colors of salt at the grocery store. Pink sea salt was my favorite! Have a wonderful day.

I love the velvet pumpkins! I actually used a variety of small ones as the topper for our wedding cake. And the woman who started making these pumpkins used to give them as gifts to friends, but when the economic crisis hit, her husband lost his job and she started this velvet pumpkin business. Which I’m beyond happy to hear has been doing very well! It’s lovely how ingenious people can be!

I went to Terrain for the first time earlier this summer right after your giveaway from them. Did you know they are owned by the Anthro/Urban Outfitters guy? It looks like an Anthro for the gardeners of the world. Such a beautiful place!

abigail, i can’t believe you were there, too!!!!! i would have loved to meet you. and Chrissee, i just went to spend the day at Terrain; we met a bunch of the people who work there and we had lunch and dinner in their delicious cafe. it was such a haven, i wish i lived closer, you are so lucky!! xo

oooh, rachael, i’m not sure if it tastes like egg yolks–can’t wait to try it tonite!

Oooh… Love it! I totally just bought a dark chocolate caramel bar with black hawaiian sea salt in it yesterday! Yummy! Has a sort of smoky taste!

A couple years ago, I bought some black sea salt at Trader Joe’s and I was surprised to find that it turned my fingers BLACK! Like, really black. As in, it-looks-like-I-rubbed-my-fingertips-on-ink kind of black. Consider yourself warned! 8-) That said, the flavor is really wonderful – it seems to have a more mineral, rocky flavor than other salts, I think.

The pumpkin is darling!

p.s. i saw this birth announcement and thought you would dig it.

Is black sea salt the one that tastes like egg yolks? I tried it at a farmer’s market and thought it’d be a great ingredient to have around for potato salad, especially if I’m bringing it to a gathering and who knows if someone has egg allergies? I was amazed at the distinct flavors of all the different colors of salt. And I just love that pumpkin!

That’s such a wonderful store. And that first photo looks exactly like the homes in Mendocino California, such a beautiful place (yup, don’t mind me I’m just reminiscing)!

Oh my goodness Joanna! I’m in love with Terrain also. I lived in Philadelphia for years, and this opened just before I moved a way. I want everything in the shop for my home and food blog. Your blog is so inspiring, thank you for your everyday ideas. I totally wish I could be your intern this Fall, but I live in Portland, Oregon. Thanks for making me smile!

I love Terrain…it reminds me of going to my mother’s house when I was in university. I could “shop” there & her house was very much like it. No longer. Alas.

The sea salt is superb & yes, it will look cool on baked taters.

And…yay for PA!

i saw this on the rockstar diaries blog a few weeks back and i was so intrigued. now i’m even more so! that pumpkin makes me excited for fall already.

Terrain is one of my favorite places, my husband and I go there almost every weekend. Sometimes we buy things and sometimes we just soak in everything and just enjoy being there. I picked up the salt water soap too. I love the smell and the packaging….so cute I might not be able to ever use it. Next time you go for visit you must try out the cafe! It is so delicious. They serve fresh warm bread in flower pots with flavored butter topped with a little bit of fancy salt!

I’m very lucky to live a short drive from there, and my sister and I go a few times a year for inspiration and to splurge. If you didn’t, the next time you go make sure to eat in the cafe. It’s so wonderful to sit, relax, and eat amongst the plants.

Lush! xx

I love the pumpkin! I can’t wait for Fall!

great your blog, nice to meet your blog!

I live so close to Terrain! I try not to go there often, because I could wander around for hours. Like Anthro, it is wonderful inspiration, even if I can’t bring myself to pay their prices.

I’m lucky enough to live close by to this pretty shop, they change every season and you can take classes there ( I still have to do this). The cafe is amazing, I recommend the cheese platter…oh and the elderberry spritzer!

I love sotres like this with so many fun trinkets! I could browse for hours!

I love Terrain! My mom and I try to visit at least once during each different season. I always get a little sad when its time to leave. :)
