What a gift this life is.

Thank you @vintageboutiquemarket (@houseintheheights) for pulling together such a magical weekend.

Thank you to so many incredible shoppers who showed up scouting for treasures… choosing small, woman-owned businesses… choosing second hand, keeping beloved pieces in circulation instead of buying new.

Thank you @augustvintage_oh for being my idol, my security blanket, and my champion through all of this!

Thank you to the vendors who made me feel right at home— everyone was so welcoming! @peridottreasurescle @mot_vintage @independenteclectic @estatesalecrasher are a few that come to mind that really made me feel comfortable right away!

Thank you @bellaasadventuress for being the smiling, upbeat presence we needed and for documenting the weekend with such joy. You’re a rockstar!

While women’s circles, sound baths, intuitive guidance, and energy work are the foundations of my business and life, the vintage market scene is a VIBE and I love it.

Creating space where women (& men!) gather together and gather sacred objects to make their lives more beautiful is such a privilege and I am honored to be a part of this world in some small way.

It is NOT for the faint of heart… what you see at market takes SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT, it’s truly wild. The hours spent sourcing, cleaning, researching, pricing, packing, unpacking, staging, repacking… the dollars spent on staging props, bags, wrapping, tags, hangers, inventory and so much more… it’s a lot!

That’s not a complaint but an observation and salute to the dedication, vision, and heart behind each booth vendor. Truly, these women are REMARKABLE in every way.

I’m moving through another growth portal as I explore the market world. What a gift it is to be stretched and challenged. Grateful for this life.
