After a lot of thought, prayer, conversations with my family, and more emotion than I can put into words, I have made a very difficult decision.
Willow & Bright Boutique will be closing at the end of this year. Our final day will be December 23rd.
For the past several years, Willow & Bright has been so much more than a clothing boutique to me. It has been a dream. A challenge. A place where I have grown, learned, stretched myself, and created memories I will carry with me forever.
But most importantly, it has been a place where I have gotten to know and love so many of you.
Every purchase. Every conversation. Every event. Every message. Every friend who walked through the door. Every person who told a friend about my little store.
You have all been part of this story.
And for that, I am incredibly grateful.
This decision was not made overnight, and there are many reasons behind it. But ultimately, I know in my heart that it is time for me to close this chapter.
That doesn't make this decision easy. There is a lot of emotion that comes with saying goodbye to something I poured so much of myself into. But there is also peace in knowing that it is the right decision for me and my family.
For the next several months, we are going to celebrate Willow & Bright the best way we know how, by giving you the opportunity to shop with us!
We will be sharing our closing sales, special offers, important updates, and everything you need to know right here, so please continue to follow along.
For now, I simply want to say thank you.
Thank you for believing in my dream.
Thank you for shopping local.
Thank you for the conversations, the encouragement, the friendships, and the support.
Thank you for making Willow & Bright what it became.
I hope you'll continue to shop with us through our final days and help us make these last several months incredibly special.
This isn't the goodbye I ever imagined writing, but I am choosing to look at it with a grateful heart.
Here's to the final chapter of Willow & Bright. 🤍
With so much gratitude,
Shelbee Richards
Owner, Willow & Bright Boutique
