This came up on my memories today! Market 🪼🪼
Our first store! 🖤🖤🖤 here we are over 5 years later, we look different. We have 2 locations, and our website will be launched in a couple of months.
Now I have my bus and my "mobile boutique" that I can bring anywhere!
I absolutely ADORE my Crystal Boutique up at The 315 Artisan Market by Autumn’s Originals in the Salmon Run Mall. The stores is just gorgeous, and I love every bit of it!
We have all of our bigger crystals up at the 315. That is where you will find our biggest selection of materials....for now 😉
This year at the CNY Regional we have
doubled our space! It is actually bigger than this very first store 🪼
We kind of have 2 sections on this setup. On one side we have lots of crystals, but I have found that people are looking for smaller items at the market (i have over 150 Crystal items to chose from 🔮) we have over 300 unique stickers (people love our snarky stickers!) Over 50 scents of crystal car diffusers, our handmade crystal Intention Candles NOW in 3 sizes! Lots of crystal jewelry ✨️
The other side we have added a Hat Bar with paches we have created! Choose your hat and patch and we press it on right there for you! We just added embroidered patches as well! We have engraved pen sets and coasters sets as well!
SOON we will be bringing our laser with us to the market to do on the spot personalization ♥️♥️♥️ (im still working with it so i will be able to do it in such a busy environment!)
Also a plug for the market. I love that place. If you arent going down every week to grocery shop, I dont know what you are doing. So many amazing stalls. Fresh local fruits, veggies, meat. Cheeses, breads homemade things for your pets, plants, flowers 💐 and so much more. 5 HUGE sheds, plus outside area. They have been adding food trucks too, they keep adding things. It's truly an experience. Best part is you can come early (opens. At 7am) be done and still have the rest of the day!
Seriously, for me, I hate getting up early. I was up at 3 am getting ready to go yesterday. I hate that! Its a LOT of work setting everything up. It takes three of us and thank goodness being on our 3rd year of doing the market, we have a system and get set up pretty fast!
I still miss working with my girl everyday, BUT she works behind the scenes with me. We still bounce ideas off each other and she helps out when she can.
But now I get to work with my son and my husband. My son is the muscle. Without him, the booth wouldnt get set up. Hes not a fan of working the retail part, so he helps with the heavy lifting. My hub is my organizer and helper. He likes talking to people and while he and our son came up with the hat bar, Rico just isn't interested in the working in retail which is fine! Hes more of a hands on kinda guy. ♥️
I know im blabbering. This picture just brought up all the feels. Im so proud of what we have created as a family. We started one way and have pivoted according to what works for us.
Again thank you to all of you who have supported us all this time. We are so grateful. I just wanna give a shout out to our haters too. I work hard, it used to bother me when people would say things. And yes they do, but now it brings me joy. Its all part of the equation. You cant have success without a few haters. They help keep ya motivated and a little petty. 😂
Thank you for letting me ramble! Do what brings you joy and f**k the rest! Be feral. That's my motto ♥️
