✨Small Business Spotlight✨
Pete’s Daily Creations

We wanted to take a moment to recognize one of our amazing and talented small business owners!
Pete is incredibly talented and custom creates everything she makes. She’s especially known for her beautiful porch planters!

Check out these gorgeous planters she so generously donated to the alley on Van Rensselaer Street next to Unique Finds. The Marketplace also donated some ferns to help freshen up the space during Third Thursdays Downtown Rensselaer! 🌿

Be sure to check them out the next time you're strolling through downtown Rensselaer. 🫶
