Bio
Modern Functionality + Eco-Friendliness + Old World Charm = Ernst & Thistle
Ernst & Thistle is a Richmond-based design duo made up of local artists Lynalise Woodlief and Karen Wolfe. From their ateliers in the James River Basin, they design and hand-make vintage inspired home décor, accessories, and gifts with an eye for detail and old world craftsmanship. They developed a knack for authentically aging reproductions from their combined 20 years experience in the local film and media industries. With this and a mélange of varied art degrees, many of Ernst & Thistle's pieces are an ode to simpler times, truer ideals, and lost artisan craft. Eco-responsibility is an inherent component of their work; therefore, vintage, pre-used, salvaged and upcycled materials are used where possible (in the packaging, shipping materials and the products themselves.)

I would love to say it's something flashy and fun, but it's really just a kahki green rolling duffle which I love. It's lightweight and you can pack a ton in there, while not getting it too unwieldy.
My suitcase is a really functional, black samsonite, but I have tied bright pink curling ribbon to the top and side handles so that I can identify it a little bit easier when, finally, it come rolling out onto the baggage claim carousel.
My luggage is a boring khaki color. I wish it were bright and sassy...maybe one day...
Mine is black, but I'd love a white and shinning one.

I just recently bought a new suitcase, which I LOVE. It is brown with pink polka dots! The best part? I have yet to see anyone else with it and you can spot it very easily!
Boring black.
We just got a great new set of dark red luggage that we're going to use for our first down-south vacation in two weeks! Wooooo hoooo!!
Suitcase... what suitcase? I proudly travel with my "vintage" Vera Bradley French Blue extra-large duffel and garment bag. Of course, my monogram adorns both. Even though the pattern was retired in 2002, I can't seem to put it away, or give it away for that matter! I'm getting married in a few months and my monogram will change, so I'm going to tuck it away in my future daughter's hope chest!
I have very cute dark brown luggage with a gold Fleur-De-Lis pattern. I picked it out at the market place, my very first trip to New Orleans.
My luggage is burt orange, and I always tie a really colorful ribbon on the handle for easy identification and style!
