A love letter to all of you 🖤

As October’s comes to a close, I am looking back at this month with so much gratitude. I was able to check off some pretty big business goals this month (and much earlier on this journey than I had planned, like years earlier):

☑️ be a vendor at a market
☑️ sell 3+ pieces of furniture in a month
☑️ $2k in sales, and
☑️ $3k in sales 🎉🥳

Words will never be enough. You all, your support of my dream, your engagement in my content, every single purchase that has been made by you, mean the world to me and my family. None of this, NONE of it, would be possible without you.

I also have to give a HUGE thank you to Laura from Lily & Birch and her amazing team of vendors (who I’ve learned so much from), the incredible people at Lucketts for putting on two incredible markets each year (and inspiring this dream of mine), and the ladies at for taking a chance on a former teacher who started this biz on a whim last summer.

So to wrap up what is an incredibly long post, THANK YOU. Thank you for your continued support and following along on this wild ride!

P.S. swipe through to see what sold ➡️

thanks for joining me in stories last night to preview my booth! i figured since i mainly focused on furniture, i’d give you some detail shots of small items in my booth 🖤

creating vignettes + styling my furniture is probably my favorite part of what i do (besides the thrifting, of course)! it’s so satisfying to see the pieces i’ve thrifted tie the space together and bring the furniture to life! and, if i’m being honest, it provides an insane amount of reassurance that i made the right decision to start this business.

now, if i •m u s t• pick my top 3 smalls of this market, i think i would choose:
• brass duck head wall hooks (not pictured, but in my stories)
• the manual of gardening book (that cover tho 😮‍💨), and
• mini (orig art) windmill painting. so tiny + beautiful!

honorable mention to the two floral arrangements i made 💁🏻‍♀️

what’s one piece you would grab if you could??
