For those of you who have known me throughout the years, you know that The Vintage Vault has been a labor of love since the very beginning. We poured blood, sweat, and tears into this business that my mom and I dreamt up in 2015 and formed some of the strongest friendships with some of the kindest people. We were so fortunate to be as successful as we were, but Covid killed the business we worked so hard to build.
In the aftermath, my life changed in beautiful ways and it became increasingly difficult to balance it all. Having my own little family, my grandma, and a scaling real estate business, I needed to step away. This is such an emotional goodbye. So many of you popped by regularly to check in and say hi to my grandma and Tim, bringing little gifts and making small talk just because. Many came to my momβs wake and always followed up to make sure we were moving along okay, sent Christmas cards, welcomed my babies and would visit to see how much theyβd grown. Closing this chapter is breaking my heart, but I keep telling myself that the nine years weβve been in business has made a difference- to the lonely who knew they were always welcome with a cup of coffee to spend a few hours, to the little ones who couldnβt wait to run upstairs and pick up a toy, and to those we loved and lost along the way. I canβt express how grateful we are for each and every one of you. We love you all so much. We will be locking the door September 1st and putting the building up for sale. Until then, everything will be discounted beginning this Thursday, 8/1.
These moments are bittersweet, but like my mom always said- βWeβll figure it out.β Until then, thank you for coming along for the ride.
XO, Vanessa
