THE SISTER STORY OF LEINEN + LIEBE

We are a Bri + Aunnah, a sister duo with a 13 year age gap and a deep love for curating previously loved secondhand pieces.
OUR MISSION IS TO CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE THAT YOU CAN DWELL IN WITH EASE AND AN UNHURRIED NATURE.
​Our parents first instilled a love in us for secondhand pieces through our childhood outings of garage sales and thrift store trips. Bri always took it upon herself to teach Aunnah the love + art of thrifting! Perusing secondhand stores has always been an outlet for Bri and a way to soothe her during the hardest seasons of her life. She first had the idea to start an online secondhand shop in 2016 before she even knew that was a thing, but wasn't able to start a new business at the time.
Collectively through the years, Bri saved pieces she sourced + adored for a future purpose. Aunnah soon found a love for creativity in creating an atmosphere on Instagram that was lovely to dwell in and invoked feelings of peace and nostalgia. Bri + Aunnah were separately working on Instagram secondhand shops when they realized the missing piece to each other's shops was one another. They came together in the Spring of 2021 and launched their first collection in August of 2021. Bri always loved the name "Linen + Love" and Aunnah loved it as well. But it was through a random google search that Aunnah found the German translation "Leinen + Liebe" which felt fitting as we are of German heritage. This is how a tiny seed God separately planted in both of us intentionally got woven together through growth + grace and has now created what you experience today!



We focus on lengthening the lives of vintage and modern pieces by curating a selection of clothing and homewares focusing on natural fibers + materials. Just like us, every piece has a deep history. We adore reflecting on what type of person has owned each piece, how many loving words and actions were exchanged while dwelling in them, where they’ve traveled to and the sights they’ve beheld, the conversations they’ve been a part of, and the kind remarks they’ve gotten in the years past. We hope you take intentional time to peruse and shop these previously beloved pieces with us.
