Beyond the Basket is a vintage consignment store meant to bring back the trend of picnicking. The company supplies anything from grills, to sports equipment, to lawn chairs or blankets. For the personality of this particular company it is a family friendly and overly welcome brand. We strive to make everyone’s day just a little bit better with the help of supplying him or her with lightly used retro picnicking supplies. Our entire inventory comes from those in the community giving back to those around them. We buy nothing from the store yet receive all donations to stock the shelves. The tone of this brand is uplifting and welcoming. We strive to achieve that feeling of a community coming together for a good time and sharing the wealth of their belongings. The colors used through out give off a soft and comforting feel allow everyone to get a chance to come and experience the excitement that is Beyond the Blanket. The typeface used shows off our more retro side. Our philosophy here at Beyond the Blanket is that by the end of everyone’s experience here at our store they leave with a smile on their face and an item in their basket.
