We are going MOBILE! 🚐
It’s with a heavy heART that I’m writing this…💔
Sometimes you build something with your whole heart, pour your dreams, energy and countless hours into it and then life asks you to make a decision you never thought you’d have to make. Or maybe I was made for a time like this?
The Artery has been much more than a business to me. It has been a dream, a baby, a place filled with colour, laughter, messy hands, big ideas and beautiful memories.
I’ve watched people walk through those doors and create something they never thought they could .I’ve celebrated birthdays, parties, milestones and little moments that became big memories. And somewhere along the way, The Artery became a little piece of me.
So writing this next chapter is incredibly difficult.
Due to personal reasons, and because I’ve had to take on another very important fulltime job as nurse, teacher, chauffeur, therapist and a caring praying mother , I’ve realised that I can’t be at my own shop every day the way I need to be.
But this is not goodbye to The Artery.
We are going MOBILE! 🚐
I’ll still be doing events at different venues, pop-ups and private functions, so if you’re planning a birthday, kitchen tea, baby shower, ladies’ day, corporate event or just want to get together and make some beautiful creative chaos …you can still book The Artery!
At this stage, though, this weekend will be our LAST WEEKEND at the shop.
And to celebrate, clear out and make sure nothing goes to waste…
EVERYTHING IN STORE WILL BE 50% OFF! 🎨🛍️
So please come and see us this weekend.
Come celebrate with us.
Come grab a bargain.
Come make one last memory.
Come give me a hug.
And yes,come cry with me.
To every single person who has supported The Artery, painted with us, celebrated with us, shared our posts, recommended us, brought your children, your friends and your families through our doors
A BIG thank you.
You helped turn an idea into something real.
And whatever happens next, The Artery will always be a chapter I wrote with my whole heART.
The doors may be closing, but the paintbrushes are NOT being packed away.
We’re simply taking The Artery to a new canvas.
Arts & 😘
