And that’s a wrap!
4 years as Barrypatch Boutique with me.
28 years as Barrypatch Collectibles or just Barrypatch with Barb Anderson.
And now the Barrypatch doors are closed for good.
Barb, thank you giving me the opportunity to run my own home decor/gift store. This has been a dream come true for me and it was a beautiful situation to step into an already well established business.
To our customers…thank you for being faithful to local small business. Chatting about life, sharing laughs and making new friends were unexpected bonuses to running my store. It has been an absolute pleasure serving you. Finding unique items for a decent price was always my goal and for those who shopped and browsed in my beloved store the last four years, I appreciate you!
To my family and friends who were unwavering in their support of this venture, I couldn’t do life without you! Thanks to all of you for showing up for unexpected visits, for making purchases, for sharing and liking my FB and Insta posts. You are my people! Thank you!
A special thanks to my dad, Dennis Wilkie, for your frequent afternoon visits-always with a coffee and a treat! I am going to miss your special knock on my back window, but especially our visits in the chairs!
And of course, Vince! Doing the books, making my lunches, travelling up and down the 401 corridor to pick up orders, attending the shows in Toronto with me……your support and patience are unmatched. Thank you for always being the behind-the-scenes partner I need most!
Good-bye little store! Good -bye Barrypatch Boutique!
