We came home from sneaking away for our daughter's college graduation to mail stating something had been denied because I failed to include a cover letter to the state. A.cover.letter.(which I had no idea was required🙈) So yeah, that's been fun.

In other news, we're down to the wire and cleaning, researching, & pricing jewelry is one of the prettiest jobs on my to-do list... actually saved for late nights when I can't be hands on at the store.

If you think being a small business owner is easy, the reality is that you eat, sleep, & live the work. So you need to be really passionate about what you're doing or you'll feel like you're dying.

Remember...opening day is THIS SATURDAY, y'all!!!🎉🎉🎉

Things have been a little quiet here the last couple of days because we headed south for our daughter's college graduation in Virginia.
I love what we're building with the business and we're in a season of life where its a bit "easier" than if our girls were still really little, but I will always prioritize them over business any day.
We open our doors in one week and one day so I'm very glad we could get away to celebrate her accomplishments- a Bachelors Degree with double minors, Magna Cum Laude, babyyyy!🎉🎉🎉

Remember...OPENING DAY for the shop is Saturday, May 23rd🎉🎉🎉🎉

We always appreciate knowing about these events so figured we'd post it here in case you hadn't seen it.

Yesterday felt like a lost work day but it was necessary to take my mom to some pretty big appointments. We were gone for eight hours and the last appointment involved a dental extraction for her so both of us were exhausted by the time I got her home. But the to do list is never ending so off to the shop Eric & I went at 9 pm

A bright spot in the middle of the day was getting this piece from Corning Antiques & More in Corning, NY. The butter yellow is absolute perfection for this spot and, for now, will be where you can find our outdoor, garden, vase pieces.

We left the store at 11:40 last night once I had this piece cleaned and merched and my hubby had finished the holes for the library wall. That's been quite the challenging project, lemme tell ya! But every step is a step closer to opening....

Opening Day is next Saturday, May 23rd🎉🎉🎉

Playin' house all day long. Had some sweet visitors peeking in the windows today while I was working so I waved them in and they got a sneak peek at the (mess of a) salesfloor.

Seeing others be crazy excited about what we're building here in Sayre just fuels my own excitement!

Please keep sharing these posts because its working! Every day we have no less than five or six new people popping in from other areas of the building to see what's going on here and alot of that has been shared posts or word of mouth. We so appreciate that!

OPENING DAY is Saturday, May 23rd!🎉🎉🎉

If you follow our Instagram account, you can read the back story on this antique bed. It's destined to be an anchor piece in someone's guest or kids' room, for sure.❤️

Fun fact: air mattresses from down the hall(at The Village in Sayre Basement of Bargains) are the perfect solution so that we can merchandise beds but not have to store real mattresses. We've bought three already!🤗
