Huge thank you to Anthony, the founder of Mitten Vintage Flea Market, for the amazing opportunity to be on the Fox 17 Morning Mix, FOX 17, representing some of the vendors at his events!

My inner child is beyond proud of where and what I am doing today! To think the little girl who didn't like raising her hand in class is now on the news, talking about upcycling jewelry, is a full-circle moment for me.

Was I perfect, hahha, of course not, perfection is not within human nature! Instead, I was HUMAN, I experienced multiple emotions, I was excited, nervous, joyful, and chose to exist in the present moment. Cherishing the journey my business and I are on, forever growing and learning with every experience! ✨️

Follow your dreams, my friends, you never know what the universe has in store for you!

Thank you for supporting me. I'll forever be a dreamer and chase those dreams with every ounce of my being!

I hope to see you and your friends this Saturday at Calder Plaza, Grand Rapids! I'll be under the purple tent with the sunflowers 🌻 💜

With Love & Light,

Bee 🐝 💛✨️

Year 5 of Busy Bee Thrifting!!!

Time to reintroduce myself ✨️ I'm Bee (she/her), and I am the human behind Busy Bee Thrifting. I source, create, curate, and run all of Busy Bee Thrifting.

The last 5 years have been pure Magic, being able to chase my dreams!

☆Owning a Business
☆Supporting our Planet
☆Connecting w/ Community
☆Constantly Creating

& many more amazing moments that wouldn't be possible without the beautiful souls that support me!!!

Moving into 2026, I will continue to share the shows I will be attending, the vintage goodies I will be selling, the jewelry I will be creating, and all the art I make!

I will be sharing more areas in life I am just as passionate about as vintage!

Herbal remedies, homemade food, sustainable tips, community opportunities, nature, furry friends, grief, creating, and anything that fills my heart space with love, light, acceptance, and presence.

The world is a heavy place to exist in, and I vow to continue to fight the lows in the world with love and light through all avenues of living! Would love for you to join me on this journey.

The journey of staying present, growing your roots stronger through knowledge, community, creativity, and love, because all of those are abundant, and we are all deserving of ABUNDANCE!!!

With,
Love & Light
