TRI Vintage – Shop Local, Fair Trade, Handmade

by Karissa 5 Comments

I’ve recently partnered with an amazing small local business, TRI Vintage and Wares. TRI has a physical store in Lafayette, Colorado and also sells its unique, responsibly sourced and socially conscious home decor, fashion and accessories online at Shop TRI. 

I happily call Boulder County home, and I am so excited to have found this local treasure of a shop. Not only does it have fair trade clothing, recycled vintage housewares, and local accessories – but it also gives back.  TRI Vintage is a store with a cause – giving profits back to benefit the Indian women and girls who create so many of the products in the shop. They are empowering and supporting non profit organizations and making a difference in the lives of orphans in Pune, India. 

Check out some of these carefully sourced items:

They have the best selection of vintage, handmade and fair trade items – and the prices are so reasonable!

I spent a good part of the afternoon in the store – there is so much to see! I chatted with Liz, who has a passion for their global citizenship mission and we chatted about their most recent trip to India. I couldn’t stop admiring the skilled decorating of Ricci, her sister-in-law and one of the three owners of the store. TRI is a family owned store – owned by brother (Jordan), sister (Ricci) and sister-in-law (Liz). Isn’t that awesome? 

While shopping in-store, there was a group of gals that came in to find gifts for their friend’s birthday. They each left with something unique. As a final touch, TRI wrapped and stamped the gifts with The Restoration Initiative logo. I loved watching the care that was put into presenting these special gifts.



There is so much goodness to this store. I love the styles and designs by small local and global artisans. I can’t get enough of the handpick vintage items from (mostly) estate sales for resale in their store. (OMG I would love shopping for vintage treasures as a part of my job!)

I found the store to be so genuine and authentic. You can tell each item in the store was chosen with love and care. The TRI store is so beautiful. With the living plants everywhere it feels very natural and inviting. So many of the products are made with natural materials – wood, plant fibers, stones and metals. I left the store happy and excited for future shopping experiences!
 
Of course I didn’t leave empty handed – I couldn’t help but buy a leather cross body purse, adorable plant (What kind of plant is this?!) and two beautiful necklaces. I have gotten a ton of compliments on my necklace and the purse is just the perfect size for a phone, money and the basics. I use it everyday!
