Did you ever want to own a memento from one of your favourite businesses without stealing it? Here’s your chance!

Hi all,
after Diane’s post yesterday announcing the closing of the teahouse, we’ve received a large amount of emails with your best wishes, expression of sadness, etc. Thank you so much for all your compassion and condolences, it helps to ease our pain.
Unfortunately, life goes on and we have to deal with the practical consequences of closing the teahouse. Since it was (I still have a hard time getting used to the past tense) a rather large locality and our home simply won’t fit all the beautiful things from Ya-Ya’s interior, we’ve decided to give you an option to own a souvenir from your Ya-Ya teahouse.
How would you like to own your favourite cushion from the platform seating or even one of our 3 bamboo tables? Or maybe you want to refurbish your lounge and always wished you had something like our hugely popular (especially the corner seats) sofa.
Now is your chance!
We’ve listed some of Ya-Ya’s interior on trademe for auction. Have a look, maybe you’ll find a piece you alway wanted. And tell your friends, the ones that you know need a new table, chair, etc. You know the furniture, many of you have used it like it was in your living room.
To answer the question that many of you will surely have: No, the incredibly big and incredibly RED wall is NOT for sale on trademe! We’ll not be able to remove it, so sorry for that.
