I grew up reading Ms. Magazine after my mom or one of my aunts had finished with it. I probably didn’t understand half of what I was reading at the time, but somewhere along the way, those ideas stuck. Strong, independent, gifted women with stories to share.
Nanabird is certainly not changing the world. 😂 I’m buying old dishes, glassware, artwork and whatever else catches my eye, and then finding new homes for it all.
But there’s something pretty wonderful about building something that belongs to you. Something that reflects your taste, your curiosity, your passion, and all the weird little things that make you … you.
So this is a little appreciation post for the women who came before us and pushed the doors open a little wider. And for all of us still figuring out what to do with the space they gave us. ❤️
And a very special thank you to Thirteen79 Design Services Emily Price, for opening Motley Home and taking a chance on me.
And to Recycled Soul Creations Dawn Bringer, for building upon that vision and supporting the women-owned small businesses that are part of our collective.
Maybe this little vintage business is just one small thing. But I’m pretty grateful for the women who made it a little easier for me to build it. ❤️
