This post is written for our new series ~ a series about becoming a Shopkeeper, from creating a Brand, to designing a Shop all with a coordinated signature style. We’re sharing (in no particular order)~ our plans, our process, our creative ideas and all the pretty stuff too …. even if there is no purpose, or intention or expectation to grow big or even ‘be known’ at all. There is contentment found in simply just ‘enjoying’ the process, just like a child plays make-believe…….even if it is all just for fun.

We are here to

Today, within the Series we’re sharing

‘for the locals‘

~ a change in the biz has me focusing on branding, handmades, and creating ‘for the locals’ ~ Travel Shops and Open Houses….and a few Creative Gatherings too.
