WLE Craft Shop

09/07/2026

✨ And just like that… we’re wrapping up our 5th season! ✨

This is our last “official” weekend of the season at the WLE Craft & Apparel Shop — but we’re not disappearing just yet! 😉

🛍️ We’ll continue to be OPEN Saturdays ONLY from 10:00 AM–1:00 PM through Columbus Day Weekend.

As another season comes to a close, I just want to take a minute to say THANK YOU. 💕

First, to my incredible vendors — some of you have been with me for all five years, and some of you joined our little Craft Shop family more recently. Every single year, I’m amazed by the creativity and talent you bring into this shop. I love watching your crafts evolve, seeing you try new things, and watching each of you continue to grow and improve year after year. You are what makes this shop so special. 🩷

And to the WLE community — THANK YOU for shopping with us and supporting your neighbors! Every purchase you make means so much more than simply buying something cute. Your support helps put money directly into the hands of our local vendors, helps us invest in inventory and improvements for the shop next season, and helps support WLE Recreation and the events we all enjoy throughout the year. 🛍️✨

Five years ago, I volunteered to take on this little shop, and I truly could never have imagined what it would become. I am so incredibly honored to have been trusted with it for the last five years, and I’m so proud of how much it has grown. It has definitely become one of my babies. 😂💕 Seeing people walk through the doors, discover something made by one of their neighbors, find the perfect WLE gear, or come back year after year means more to me than I can say.

And none of this happens with just one person.

A huge thank you to our WLE Office Staff, Security Department, Maintenance Department, Recreation volunteers, and Board of Directors for all of the behind-the-scenes help, support, patience, heavy lifting, questions answered, doors unlocked, problems solved, and everything else that goes into keeping this little shop going. 💕

And of course, thank you to everyone who has volunteered their time to help me throughout the season. It truly takes a village.

Five seasons down… and I’m already thinking about what we can do next year. 😜✨

Thank you, WLE, for another amazing season and for continuing to support our talented neighbors, our Craft & Apparel Shop, and WLE Recreation.

💕 See you Saturdays, 10:00–1:00, through Columbus Day Weekend! 💕

💚 A little personal note from me…

First, thank you to our incredible WLE community for your patience, kindness, and support. We’ve all had a bit of a rough start to the summer, and your understanding has meant more than you know.

Thank you as well for all of the sweet messages and well wishes as I get ready to leave for vacation. 🛳️ It truly means so much. I’ll admit… it’s not easy leaving my baby for a couple of weeks! 😂 But knowing it’s in such good hands makes it a whole lot easier.

A very special thank you to Ms. Evelyn for all of the help she’s given over the last few weeks and for volunteering her weekend to keep the shop open while I’m away. Your generosity, patience, and willingness to step in are so appreciated, and I couldn’t do this without you.

Thank you all for continuing to support our amazing vendors, our volunteers, and the WLE Craft & Apparel Shop. You are what makes this little shop so special. ❤️

Bon Voyage, WLE!! 🏝️☀️🕶️👙

See you all soon!
