Well… turns out we forgot to post last week’s top followers! 😂 Oops!

Happy Saturday! Come shop over 35 local vendors and check out some of the newest additions, including NEW fidget clickers, crochet friends, gifts, goodies & handmade finds! There’s always something new popping up around here, so come wander the shop and see what you find! 🫶🏻

And a quick custom order update! 💛⬇️

We are officially at MAX CAPACITY for custom orders right now! We can still accept new projects, but know that turnaround time would be approximately 3–4 weeks. We appreciate your patience SO much while we work through the orders already on our list. We’d rather give you a realistic timeline and make sure your order gets the time and attention it deserves than overpromise. 🫶🏻

Thank you for keeping us busy, supporting our little shop, and giving us the absolute BEST problem to have! 🤍

Today, we’re spreading a little extra kindness. Because sometimes a simple card, a thoughtful note, or a genuine smile can mean more than we realize. Mental health matters. Checking in matters. Letting someone know they’re loved, seen, and appreciated matters. 💛

So stop in today and make a card for someone you love, someone who could use a little encouragement, or even a stranger who might need a reason to smile.

Dolly said it best, “If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.” 💕

What a beautiful surprise today 🥹 The Matthias Academy stopped in to visit and gifted us the most incredible hand painted canvases in recognition of Women’s Equality Day.

To be thought of and recognized in this way means more than we can put into words. We’re so proud to be home to over 30 talented local women artists, and this recognition belongs to them just as much as it belongs to us.

We’re also incredibly thankful to have the Matthias Academy in our community and for everything they do to make life, art, and everything in between more inclusive and accessible for everyone.

Thank you for thinking of us and for such a meaningful gift. We are truly grateful for all of you! 🤍

Happy Saturday, friends! 🫶🏻

We’ve been busy behind the scenes getting orders created, but we wanted to take a little break and show off some of our shop favorites + a few new goodies!

And……somehow we’re only 10 purchases away from hitting 6,000 orders?! 😭🥹 We truly can’t thank you enough for continuing to show up, shop small, and support all of the incredible local artists we’re lucky enough to work with.

If you’re out and about today, there’s still time to stop in! We’re here until 5pm and again tomorrow from 11-3pm ♥️
