🎨✨ WHERE CREATIVITY MEETS ENTREPRENEURSHIP.

Precious Frivolities, an Open Doors initiative here in Kansas City, is such a cool example of what happens when creative talent gets the opportunity to become a business.

April brought together 5 local artists, designers, and creatives to fill the space with thoughtfully made, one-of-a-kind pieces — giving their creativity a place to be seen, shared, and supported. 🛍️

Because creativity isn’t just something you make. It can be a business, a livelihood, a community, and a way to build something entirely your own.

I love seeing Kansas City create space for both sides of that equation: the people dreaming it up AND the entrepreneurs turning those ideas into something real.

📍 Precious Frivolities | Kansas City, MO

📲 Follow along for the good stuff — locally and beyond.

We are adding new items everyday at Precious Frivolities every time you visit a new treasure will reveal itself! We are all local woman owned businesses, with exception of two guys but they are cool too! As all businesses in the downtown area we have been affected by local’s staying away for fear of large crowds. There aren’t large crowds, parking is easy to find and affordable and close to the store. We have poured our hearts, souls and time into this store we would love for you to experience it!!! Open Wed-Sun 12-6pm 1712 Main Street KCMO.
