Let Us Reintroduce Ourselves! 💜
💜 Hi! I’m Anne, and this is my husband (and partner in crime), Andrew. Together, we’re the hearts behind Simply By Anne. Here’s a little about our story...
💜 Simply By Anne began with a simple idea: creating natural, handcrafted Christmas gifts for our family and friends. I wanted to give something thoughtful, personal, and made with love. That’s how my self-care line was born. 🛁
💜 About three years ago, we fell in love with a beautiful country property and made the move from Newmarket. Our new home came with a septic system, so I started creating eco-friendly 🌿 cleaning products that were safe for our home and the environment. 🌏 To my surprise, they weren’t just gentler, they cleaned even better than many of the products I had been using! That was the beginning of our natural cleaning line, and I still have so many exciting ideas for what’s next. 😊
💜 Today, I handcraft every product you see at Simply By Anne and manage all of the behind-the-scenes work that comes with running a small business. But I couldn’t do any of it without my biggest supporter: Andrew. ❤️
He’s by my side at every market, helps with set-up and tear-down, carries very heavy boxes, chats with customers, and is always my biggest cheerleader, my first product tester even after a long day. Simply By Anne truly wouldn’t be what it is without him.
💜 Starting a small business has been one of the most rewarding experiences. It takes dedication, hard work, and a whole lot of heart, but every early morning, late night, and market has been worth it. We’ve also met the most incredible small business community: supportive, encouraging, and inspiring. 💜
💜 From the bottom of my hearts, thank you for supporting my vision, shopping small, and following along on this journey. I can’t wait to share what’s coming next!
