🚨Happy Tuesday Modern Deer Family! 🚨

The time has come, if you haven’t already seen on our stories yesterday. We have some EXCITING NEWS!!! We are moving into 101 N Main St in downtown Waynesville! This was formerly know as the Minted Mercantile Space. We are excited to be able to merge our home fragrance, decor & apparel all into one space! We will also be able to move our candle & soap production, warehouse & storage units into the lower level! This was a space that was always a dream of ours and we’re excited for y’all to see what’s in store!

Our tentative grand opening is planned for the first weekend of September! We will post sneak peaks as we get moved into the space on our stories on Facebook and Instagram. We will keep our current locations open as long as possible till we need to start moving the inventory over. So keep and eye on our store hours on Google as we will keep those updated.

We are extremely honored and excited to be able to take on such a historic space in our downtown area. We have so many ideas for what we will be able to do for y’all in the new space as far as displays, windows, product assortment, and overall shopping experience!

Thank you to each and every one of you from the bottoms of our hearts! You are the reason we do what we do and we love being able to share our passion with y’all!

Cody, Austin, & Team.

Happy Tuesday Modern Deer Family!!!

This post is a little different than our usual posts. As many of you know we have scaled back our shows this year to be able to put our focus and energy into creating a better experience for you guys at the shows we did keep. And WOW did it pay off. By eliminating about half of our old show schedule we’ve been able to create more impactful displays for you y’all & keep the booth looking full 💅🏼

We’ve made a video showcasing our booths from this year’s spring season. Hopefully y’all love them, we’re pretty proud of how they turned out. Along with scaling back, we also increased the booth size at almost every show from a 20x20 to a 20x30.
Crazy to see what a little more wiggle room in our schedule and “larger spaces” can do 😜
