Why Are You Thankful?
The Holidays are upon us. I think we’re all wondering if we’ll be able to safely congregate around the table with extended family and friends. Covid is on an uptick and worry is everywhere. There is so much to worry about, maybe we should stop and think about those things for which we are truly thankful. Here are few things we are thankful for:
We closed our Chicago location during the pandemic quarantine — the week restrictions lifted we had a huge sale. We are safely out of our warehouse space and so happy about it. Part of being an entrepreneur is planning, forecasting and planning some more, but sometimes the best laid plans… Well, you know the saying. So it feels good to have that albatross gone! We are seeking another co-op or mall set-up near Chicago, so stay tuned for news on that in the coming months.
We love, love, love Vintage Bliss in Beloit, WI — We feel so fortunate to be part of the VB team of vendors. Kristy and Rob are AMAZING. Rob is probably the funniest man alive. We laugh every time we’re around him — as my son Finn says — Rob makes us “sister laugh.” But most of all, we are thankful to all the VB customers. We couldn’t do it without you!
We are thankful for our families — This goes without saying but we’ll say it anyway. We love you Puckett, Bole, Shaughnessy families!! And our dogs too. Angus, Alastair and Grady bring us so much joy.
Trove customers are the best! — We were able to participate safely in Urban Farmgirl’s Main Street Market this past September, and it was so nice to see some of our favorite customers from the old shop on Jackson Street. Every Holiday Season we wax nostalgic for our little shop. It was so much fun at the Holidays — so cute, cozy and inviting. Everyone who came through the door was happy and excited for the Holidays. So it is nice to see everyone in person again at MSM!
We’re upping our online game — We’ve added Holiday items and few other houseware goods to the site. And we’ll continue to add more items to our online shop! So please keep checking back!!
