So grateful for all the wonderful makers and brands that add colour to our lives, and the customers and visitors who come to see us every day (and online!) and enjoy great design as much as we do.

April was an extraordinary month for Lifestory in so many ways, and we actually lost count of the deliveries - let’s just say the shop is full of wonderful treasures for the weekend.

Open 7 days, dog friendly (very) and our area in Edinburgh is full of other lovely independents too. So see you soon!

For those further afield, everything is on our website with fast dispatch 💨 📦

Some truly beautiful pieces arrived from Ferm Living this week, coinciding with a visit from the brand to see us at our store in Edinburgh 💫

Most of the new collection is already on our website and all is available in store. It was fun unpacking and styling this one!

Don’t miss the final slide which is a new solar light for the garden in corten steel, a material I love and we have some of in our garden, along with the hourglass planters in a new colourway …summer evenings outdoors are beckoning.

Share with someone who you think will love our new collection 🤎

New brands, restocks and more. It’s been a week of deliveries and newness here and it’s not over yet!

When you have so many photos you overthink posting, try playing tonight’s game of ‘choose just 2 random colours and throw the first few photos you see that contain those colours into a carousel’ then walk away. Let’s see how this goes shall we. Anyone else’s phone at max capacity? 📸🫠

Swipe to the end to see me happily embracing Red again.

Thank you to everyone who has visited us or shopped online. We are overwhelmed by the support for our business and can’t wait to have you all open your gifts on 25th!

Our extended opening hours are on the first slide - we are still well stocked and ready to help you find that perfect gift - and you can also place an online order for collection on Christmas Eve. We are also shipping online orders up to 24th and again from 26th.

And yes we are all ready for this well earned break ✨🌲 🧑‍🎄 Here’s to the last sprint!

18/12/2025

Deadline for online orders is midnight Friday 19th for Christmas delivery 🌲

Some other bits of info that you might find useful -

We have added Royal Mail 24hr as a shipping option and encourage you to use it as it’s faster.

Our orders are dispatching the store daily, on time, as we are in early doors packing everything before we open up 🧝‍♂️ 🧚 🧑‍🎄

We will continue to post daily as we do throughout the year so do go ahead and order ‘non-urgent for Christmas’ after 19th but note it will likely arrive later.

Our store remains open until Christmas Eve with extended hours early and late to help accommodate you on this busy time of year.

Here are our hours this weekend:
Thursday 18th: 10am - 7pm
Friday 19th: 10am - 6.30pm
Saturday 20th: 10am- 6.30pm

At Lifestory will be offering free festive tipples and snacks on arrival, a discount on purchases and a few other great surprises. We will even have Tom’s (now famous) gingerbread!

Lots of our lovely neighbours are taking part with treats of their own, I’ve tagged some in the first slide so you can follow them if you’re not already, but if I’ve forgotten anyone please comment!
