Tonight was pretty special. ❤️
We attended the ribbon cutting for The Shop on 14th tonight, and one of my favorite parts was finally getting the chance to slow down, visit, and really get to know some of the other small-business owners we now get to call our neighbors.
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the sweet woman behind Kaccy & Co. Candles, and sometimes you meet someone and just click. We sat and shared stories, talked about our businesses, our families, our faith, and life—and I walked away feeling like I had gained much more than another vendor neighbor. ❤️
Then tonight she surprised me with this incredibly kind post about us.
What makes it even sweeter is hearing that her husband tried the sample of our Muscle & Joint Relief that I sent home with her and was genuinely surprised by how much he liked it and the relief he felt. THAT is the kind of feedback that reminds me why we love making what we make.
And I have to brag on her for a minute too! We brought home some of her candles tonight, and y’all… they smell AMAZING. 😍 She has her fall collection out right now, and there were so many good ones to choose from. I actually have one burning in my house as I’m writing this, and it smells absolutely wonderful. 🍂🕯️
So when you stop by The Shop on 14th, make sure you check out Kaccy & Co. Candles too. Go smell that fall collection—you might have a hard time leaving with just one! 😂❤️
Thank you so much for your beautiful words, your support, and most of all your kindness tonight. I have a feeling this is the beginning of a pretty special friendship. ❤️
This is what I love about small business—community over competition. Supporting each other, cheering each other on, and sometimes finding wonderful new friends along the way. 🥰
🌿 Fellow Maker Spotlight: Gurell Family Funny Farm 🌿
One of the things I loved most about tonight’s grand opening was getting the chance to meet some of the other talented makers behind the products!
I finally had the pleasure of meeting Gina and her beautiful daughter, Isabelle, from Gurell Family Funny Farm. They are incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and so easy to talk to. You can tell Gina puts a lot of thought and care into what she makes.
And I can speak from personal experience about these two products. ❤️
My husband has used her Muscle & Joint Relief Balm on his arthritic joints and was genuinely impressed with the relief he felt. I used her Whipped Tallow Balm on my skin after I had a pretty miserable reaction to the medical tape following surgery, and it was wonderfully soothing and helped my skin recover.
I love supporting another small business when I can actually say, “We’ve used it, and we love it.”
If you see Gurell Family Funny Farm, take a minute to stop by, meet Gina and Isabelle, ask questions, and check out what they make. Sometimes the very best products come from the hands of people right in our own community. ❤️
