Hello to all my followers, old and new! I had a wonderful time vending at the and got to meet so many amazing people. Unfortunately we had a death in the family and then Covid got me shortly after that, so I did not have a chance to update my website after the event like I wanted to!
I am currently working on a little business plan to try to figure out how to return to this beloved community on a part time basis that I am able to maintain with joy and ease. I have no interest in appeasing the algorithm, doing reels, or selling my soul to this app. However, I miss slinging my goods, I miss collecting, and I miss being a part of this community.
I have a lot of beautiful things to share, I just need to get down to photographing and listing and updating my website.
In the meantime, I have significantly MARKED DOWN these incredible Victorian mourning pieces that did not sell at the event, as a way to say thank you to my old and new customers and to let you know I’m making a comeback!
Link in bio for more details on these rare treasures. Stay tuned for more details and sneak peeks of new listings. 🖤🖤🖤
Are hashtags still a thing? ☠️
