I'm not sure where to start this so I'll start eith the blunt honest truth.
I'm closing the shop.
This is a very hard decision. After many discussions and tears, this is the conclusion we have come to. My kids won't ever be this age again. I don't want them to look back to their child hood saying "well mom was always at work and didn't play with us." The last month they have been out of school, (they got done the Friday before memorial day) and we've been hammering out the summer fun.
I only have so many summers left with both of them. That breaks my heart. I don't want to miss out. I can always come back later in life to having an art business, but I can't go back to these sweet summer days.
I'm heart broken. I love what I've been building but the juggling of everything is really cooking that burnout. The friendships I've built. The work into the building. But with this I can slow down a bit and do the simple things I love. Like gardening. I've really been working on them this summer. (They've been neglected the last 2 years 😭) And I can work on my painting. I haven't finished a painting in 2 years. That's wild. I can take my kiddos on so many more adventures and show them it's okay and fun to be free.
With that, I will say that we are not selling the building. We will be looking to renting it out! I also will be having things to sell. First I'm going to offer to the business as a whole to be bought. My boutique items, supplies, name, Facebook, info, register, chairs, tables, etc.
If no offers on that come up I'll be selling things separately. I'm not looking to make a profit, just make a little back as, I've put so much into it and worked so many odd jobs to bring this all to life.
All my (not the items I consign for vendors) is also available if anyone is interested. I just bought all of it back in the beginning of May and haven't sold anything yet. I'd love to be able to cover that.
We have a couple classes left then after that we are done. Planning on being closed by August! (So if you want to get some shop goodies from the little store, the time is now! Lol)
My mind is reeling and now I'm blabbling. If anyone is interested in anything please text or call me. I cannot respond to every Facebook comment or message, they get lost very fast.
Thank you everyone for your love and support. I appreciate you all!
