I really can’t put into words how grateful I am for my village. 🤍
Sunrise to sundown since Thursday, 8am to midnight last night, we have put in countless hours cleaning, painting, moving things around, and working on all the little details that are slowly bringing The Keepsake to life.
To everyone who traveled hours, grabbed a paintbrush, brought supplies, sent flowers, dropped off little surprises, stopped in to congratulate me, or simply showed up when you knew I needed the help… thank you will never feel like enough.
And especially to the ones whose joints were screaming, heads were pounding, backs were hurting, and bodies were absolutely exhausted, yet you still pushed through and kept going. You didn’t have to. You chose to. And I will never forget that. 🥹🤍
I truly don’t think the words “thank you” can even begin to touch the amount of gratitude I have for every single person who has poured their time, energy, love, and support into this space.
The Keepsake By Be-YOU-tiful By Bren is slowly becoming everything I hoped it could be. Cozy, clean, elevated, creative, and most importantly, a space for our community to gather, create, celebrate, and make memories.
I’m so excited to finally start sharing it with all of you. 🥹🤍
We’re just getting started. ✨
A very special thank you to my parents, my aunt and uncle, Holly for keeping us fueled with teas, my sister and her family for the beautiful floral arrangement from my favorite flower shop in town, Flowers from the Heart on Fifth, Vickie for helping us deep clean on the very first day, my sister and brother-in-law for traveling all the way from Madison, sweet little Maggie, my best friend Lizzy and little dude Corbin, and every single one of the beautiful friends and familiar faces who have stopped in to tour the space, check on me, offer help, or simply celebrate this moment with me. 🩷
