It happens a lot. Shoplifting is stealing, people. Teach your kids; hold your friends accountable; report suspicious activity. Sometimes it’s little things, sometimes it’s valuable things (like these new Birkenstocks) that walk out or get tossed in a tote bag. Usually it’s all for sport; these are not desperate people needing quick cash; these are usually selfish people who just take whatever they want without regard for the owner or what it costs someone else. Small retail is hard enough without criminal activity. This kind of thing makes you want to close up shop (we aren’t, BTW), but seriously…we show kind hospitality to everyone who comes in. Probably these will be listed for sale soon on one of the many online marketplaces. But if you see someone in silver Birkenstock sneakers, say “hey, nice kicks…where’d you get those” 😡

Time for “Best of the Best” again, and we would love your votes! 🗳️🫶🏻

This year I didn’t ASK for any nominations and was delighted to see our shop nominated for Best Antique Shop through organic nominations only…thank you! I share community in downtown Alton with some greats like Country Meadows Antiques and Tinner's Anvil American Handwork, and when you visit Honeybee I’m always happy to recommend other shops nearby. There are so many others who I consider the Best of the Best in our area who aren’t represented in the nominations, and I’m left a little mystified. 🤔(I mean…hello…there needs to be a sandwich category for The Brown Bag Bistro right? And is Post Commons on there or did I miss it?). Also SO many small shops and galleries that went under the radar this time. Nevertheless, we are grateful to be nominated, and encourage you to vote for your downtown Alton favorites:
Honeybee Vintage
Plant Em
O/B Slices
My Just Desserts Alton, LLC
Gentelin's on Broadway
Tony’s Steakhouse & Bar Downtown Alton
Duke Bakery
Good News Brewing Company - Alton
The Old Bakery B**r Company
Germania Brew Haus

Who did I miss? Who do YOU think should have made the list so people can go VISIT? 👇🏻 After all, your support in person in the very BEST kind of support… 🛍️🙌🏻

I had the loveliest thing happen this week! A customer came through the door, started browsing, and suddenly said, “ I make this! This is my product!”

I source our Queen Bee Cream and Dirty Dog Solid Shampoo from Granola Girl, an all-natural skincare maker in Indiana, and what a delight to meet J.D. in person!
