As the Plateau eases into the easy rhythm of summer, there’s a natural urge to lighten things up–to refresh our spaces, add a pop of color, and trade the practical for the playful. June is the season for entertaining, for porch lounging, for finding that one piece that turns a table, a room, or an outfit into something extraordinary.
That’s exactly the spirit you’ll find at Acorns this month. The Old Edwards home décor and gifts store–known for its curated mix of artisan collectibles, fine jewelry, and inspired gifts–is rolling out a series of designer showcases, seasonal sales, and pop-ups that inject fresh energy into summer living.
The month kicks off with a Tabletop Sale from May 23 through June 8: spend $200 on glasses, linens, plates, or serving pieces, and receive 20 percent off your entire tabletop purchase.
From June 20-22, Asheville ceramicist Michael Hofman returns with a trunk show of his exquisite porcelain. Starting with a simple slab of clay and imprinted with vintage lace, Hofman’s pieces are finished with gem-toned glazes that evoke worn metals and precious stones. The result? Soulful, tactile treasures meant to be handed down.
Jewelry takes center stage June 27-29 with the return of Elizabeth Locke. Her collection includes the beloved Queen Bee Ring–crafted in 19K hammered gold and studded with diamonds–along with moonstone pendants, ancient coin medallions, and her popular Big Baby Hoops with interchangeable charms.
That same weekend kicks off Ali & Bird’s two-week showcase (June 27–July 13). Designed in Atlanta by Ali Howell and her daughter Lindsey, the line features resort-ready pieces made from coral, agate, pearls, and crystal–handcrafted with magnetic or hoop clasps for effortless everyday wear. (Fun fact: Lindsey’s childhood nickname was Bird, which inspired the brand’s name.)
Also new for the season: totes and cosmetic bags from Marilyn Valerio’s Sunshine & Lemmons line–playful, practical accessories with a splash of whimsy that make perfect travel companions or gifts.
Finally, Acorns wraps the month with a Linen Sale from June 30 through July 13, offering 20 percent off all bed, bath, and kitchen linens–perfect for creating your summer sanctuary.
“There’s a perception that Acorns only carries high-end items,” says Holly Watson, Director of Retail for Old Edwards. “But we really aim to have something for everyone–whether it’s a hostess gift, a teacher present, or a splurge-worthy piece of jewelry.”
Indeed, treasures await at every price point.
