we've been talking about it for a while now, but as with all good things...they take time. so now finally, with the help of our friends at etsy.....treehouse has a virtual shop!
come visit the branches anytime, day or night...


shop for your favorite lady friend, daring dude, or tiny tot. we're adding new and amazing creations every day, so check back often.

to celebrate frank...

if you've ever been to treehouse, you know that we are located in an amazing Italian neighborhood here in williamsburg brooklyn. today was a shining example of why we love it here so much. our friends at jerry's (aka emily's pork store)


and the guys at the typewriter store next door to jerry's threw a grande fete celebrating the life of 'Ol Blue Eyes himself, frank sinatra...on the 10 year anniversary of his passing. it was a neighborhood block party...


complete with complimentary lunch (or breakfast if you were around at 9am)...and of course, Frank's greatest hits blaring from the speakers. the party went into the evening, with cake and dancing if you were so inclined.


the blue balloons commemorated the man, the roast peppers and sausage honored the legend. i'm sure the Chairman of the Board was smiling down on us all, singing "come fly with me.." ;)

how our treehouse garden grows...

have you been by the treehouse lately? we've got a little bit of a green thumb and can't help but be proud of it! take a peek in our windows and see what we've been up to...


we're planting herbs and greenery in these amazing and adorable collectible planters, circa 1950-1970's...and yes!they are for sale! basil, rosemary, lemongrass, mmmmm ... more planters coming soon..and wouldn't that be the perfect gift for your mom, or a mom you know, on mother's day?? original and thoughtful..(you can thank us later). xoxo treehouse

kelly lane back in the trees*

kelly lane is once again featured on the racks of treehouse*, and this time she's stepped it up a notch with a collection made from all organic and sustainable materials. we just love the shape of the sea strings dress..easy to wear on a springy saturday in the park, or a summer night out. here's how kelly describes her collection:
"Inspired by the delightful discoveries on the shores of Hawaii, what a perfect time to offer dresses made from bamboo, soy, hemp, and organic cotton. Precious pools of water collecting at the shoreline and large piles of pitch black lava dusted with stark white sand, gave way to lovely little creations like the Tidal Pool Dress and Lava Dress. From the versatility of the Canopy dress to the breezy flow of the Sea Strings dress, there's something in this collection for each of your spring-time occasions."
