It’s been a season of great, pivotal growth and transformation—
Projects abound, and leave me a little breathless with the shifting current.

Hello, friends!
It’s been a minute since I had a chance to catch up with you here, and I hope you’ve all been doing well!
Things have been a whirlwind since I returned from Ireland–I loved every moment of that journey, and my Dad had the adventure of a lifetime on our travels! Truly one of the best experiences of my life. Ireland is an astonishing, remarkably beautiful place, and I felt a profound sense of home there that I can’t quite describe. I feel fundamentally changed for the better, eternally inspired, and healthier from our time there.
I’ve been working on a travel journal of our daily Ireland adventures, to publish here on our website, and cannot wait to share it with you all! We’re just quickly moving into the busiest time for holiday season events, and I’ve had to prioritize a few other projects first. I’m currently working on a couple of pretty awesome faux-finishing paint jobs for local residential spaces, and need to wrap those projects up before the weather turns colder and the holidays kick in full swing.
I recently finished a lot of paperwork for taxes, and do you know what I realized? We had well over 100 events and market days last year, and are on track to increase that number for 2026. I cannot thank you all enough for the overwhelming support, joy, and community that this has brought into our lives. Thank you for being such an amazing part of this journey, as we continue to build a business of art, whimsy, and joy. When we started this a few years ago, I had no idea we could grow to this level. And I am infinitely grateful to you all!
I’m working on wrapping up commissions, independent projects, and holiday inventory for the coming week–thank you for your wonderful patience as I work towards finishing these goals. I always joke with my vendor & artist friends, about how all of the things seem to happen at once–and I’m grateful for every bit of it, but my goodness! I’m doing my best to keep the pace. Behind the scenes is always a bit chaotic, but fun–and some days I dream that one day, my whole house will be clean at the same time, lol!
Wishing you all the absolute best out there–thank you again!!
–Jessie :)
