Welcome everyone to…………………………Wolves…………………………….. This shop has had us running around like mad for the last few weeks, but it has totally been worth it. It is exactly how I imagined it would be and more. What do you guys think of the name? Am I going to see you all there? Man, I hope so. we have cinnamon sticks and i’m not afraid to say that they rule some serious face, there are also loads of other awesomes, so come empty stomached. Oh and our book shelf looks a little bare, but we have the latest Frankie magazine – aaaaaaaaa, and lots of cool books are on their way, there is also free wi-fi, not to mention the best coffee in Illovo. We open officially on Tuesday x x x 4 corlett drive, Illovo, Johannesburg x x
And if you were wondering why we called ourselves what we did, it’s because Shane, Greg and I were actually raised by wolves, which is something you probably didn’t know about us and a few months ago, mama wolf unfortunately passed away, so in her honour we decided to call our shop Wolves. Yes. The picture above was taken many years ago when we were all smallies.
oh my golly gosh woo woo la la la la …ah Angie……what can I say? It looks absolutely beautiful. And cozy. And I just ache to be there. Well done on your new baby xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
