Read the full article on Etsy's blog. Three years ago Alice Saunders of Forestbound and Francesca Zmetra of Thirteen Eighty-Five and the blog The Snail and The Cyclops became roommates in an old house in Jamaica Plain, MA. They didn't know each other at the time but because of their similar aesthetic and style they bonded instantly and became best of friends. Alice's aesthetic leans toward the old military Americana style with a collection of canvas bags, found bones, birch bark, vintage lace and postcards. Francesca's style is more feminine, wartime beauty parlor/ apothecary.
