Our Story
Molly & Eren
We have created a beautiful collection of handmade home and lifestyle products. We work with artisans from around Asia, made by traditional skills using local materials.
It began with passion and a dream, Eren Baslar met Molly Linton in Thailand in 2014 where we lived and worked in Bangkok for large corporate companies.
We soon realised one of the many things that we had in common was our passion for interior design, and we share the same sense of style.
Fuelled by our love of décor, home furnishings and design we began researching the possibility of setting up our own online homewares & lifestyle business.
Inspired to do something different, we both left the corporate world, and together we travelled researching the homewaremarket in Asia.
1st August 2016, we traveled to the Uk to visit Mollys family and were invited to stay on the Isle of Wight durning Cowes Sailing Regatta, and we both just fell in love with the island.
We returned home to Thailand sold our home, packed up everything including our 2 lovely adopted dogs, Lulu & Soxi and made the move to Cowes.
1st August 2018, LINTONS HOME became a reality with our first launch product for Cowes Week with "SHIPPING BAGS". While traveling throughout Asia we came across these amazing bags that where been hand made out of recycle plastic shipping tape, much of which would end up in landfill or in our precious oceans, these lovely bags come in a range of funky colours and sizes, for adults and children and are extremely strong, water-resistant and scratch proof - gentle enough for even the shiniest desks!
We will have our first pop-up shop on the Cowes Parade Village durning the Lendy Cowes week. Our website and Face Book page will also go live and our online store will be open to buy on 13th August 2018.
We plan to launch our stunning homewares collection online next month including our gorgeous cushions and table linen, which is all made out of handmade fabrics and dyes with beautiful designs.
Our basket range will also be ready to launch very soon with bright and stylish designs for basketware in every room.
We plan to launch 4 more collection within the next few weeks so do visit our website at www.lintonshome.com
