✨ ‘Twas the night before… ?

I wrote this poem for you. 🎄😂

“And the incense were hung by the chimney with care,
in hopes that our customers soon would be there…”

Don’t expect great things from us at midnight. Or 1 a.m. Honestly, at this point, it was so far past our bedtimes that we couldn’t even tell you what time it was when we were up writing poetry, building displays, and slowly filling shelves.

But hey… the shop is coming together, one ridiculously late night at a time. 🖤✨

We’re tired. We’re caffeinated. We’re surrounded by incense, crystals, tea, and displays.

And we cannot wait for you to see it all. 🔮🖤

🚧 GOODBYE, FLOOR OUTLET! 🚧

One of the most obnoxious challenges in getting the Waynesville shop ready? That elevated floor outlet smack dab in the middle of the room.

And by “outlet,” I mean outlets. Yep. There were TWO. 😩

We stubbed our toes more times than we can count and did our best to work around them, but thankfully… we have Handyman Dan to the rescue! 🙌

Dan was able to safely remove one of the outlets, and we are officially FREE FROM BROKEN TOES! 😂

Come watch the progress video to see the whole process—from locating the circuit in the creepy basement, to removing the outlet, to repairing the floor and making this giant headache disappear.

It might seem like a small thing, but this was a GIANT issue for us, and we are SO happy to have it resolved! 🎉

One less obstacle between us and opening the doors! 🖤✨

✨ WE’RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE! ✨

With all the excitement surrounding our upcoming Waynesville shop, we just wanted to remind you that Wenches of Wormwood is still at 2nd Street Market every. single. weekend! 🖤🌿

And yes… we’re FULLY STOCKED and ready for you. 😉 Come wander the market, say hello, restock your favorite teas, find something magical, and see what’s new!

📍 2nd Street Market — Dayton
🖤 Friday: 11–3
🖤 Saturday: 9–3

The Waynesville shop is growing, but 2nd Street Market will always be part of our story. We’re so grateful for everyone who has supported us there and we can’t wait to see you this weekend!

Two locations. More magic. Same Wenches. ✨

✨ Slowly, slowly, slowly… it’s starting to feel like Wenches. ✨

We’re still unpacking, rearranging, placing, moving, stepping back, staring at a display… and then moving it again. 😂

Products are making their way onto shelves, display racks are finding their homes, and we’re figuring out exactly how we want this little space to feel.

There’s something so special about watching an empty shop slowly become ours. Every shelf, every product, every little detail is being placed with a whole lot of love. 🖤🌿

We’re not quite there yet, but we’re getting closer every day. And honestly? We’re loving every minute of the process. ✨

What do you do after a hard day of work?

When you’re a small business owner… you work more! 😂🖤

After a full day of work, we’re still here—putting in the hours, building, dreaming, and watching our little Waynesville shop slowly become everything we’ve imagined. ✨

And we have to give a HUGE shoutout to Posey Culbertson for holding down the fort at 2nd Street and giving us the breathing room to pour our time and energy into this next chapter. We seriously couldn’t do it without you! 🖤

Two shops. Twice the work. Twice the magic. 🖤✨

✨ Some things are worth waiting for. ✨

A while ago, we were gifted this absolutely beautiful piece of stained glass from Aunt Heather. 💜 And while we loved it from the moment we received it, we never brought it to 2nd Street Market.

Why? Because our little market booth doesn’t exactly have walls to work with! 😂 There was always just too much risk of this gorgeous piece getting bumped, knocked, or—our worst nightmare—broken.

So we tucked it away safely and waited for the day we had a proper home for it.

Fast forward through painting, repairs, flooring, building furniture, and approximately a million other projects later… that day finally came. 🥹

We found the perfect spot for it in the Waynesville shop, and we couldn’t be happier to finally have it where it belongs. 💜

Thank you, Aunt Heather, for such a beautiful gift. We now have the perfect place to display it, and we absolutely cannot wait to share it with everyone who walks through our doors. 🔮✨

One more little piece of Wenches is finding its place. 🖤

We’re officially in our “following all the rules” era. 😂✨

The permit applications have been submitted to the Village of Waynesville, and now we wait! Every signature, form, and inspection is one step closer to opening our doors.

Owning a small business isn’t always glamorous—sometimes it’s paperwork, permits, and patience. But every step is worth it, and we can’t wait to welcome you into our new home.

Until then… we’ll just keep following the rules. 😉🖤

The shelves aren’t going to build themselves… so we recruited our tiniest crew members. 😜

Aveline and Maddie were hard at work helping us put shelves together, and they took their jobs very seriously (most of the time 😉).

Don’t worry—our “child labor” department consists of Taylor’s Coffee & Creamery ice cream and drinks!🍦❤️

Watching these girls help bring our dream to life has been one of the best parts of this journey. They’re making memories right alongside us, one shelf at a time.

This is the side of small business you don’t always see — the messy middle. The planning, the heavy lifting, the late nights, the problem solving, and the moments where you step back and say, “We really are building this.”

Every bit of sweat equity is bringing our dream closer to reality, and we can’t wait to share this journey with you.

The floors are just the beginning… 🌿🖤



P.S. We need to shoutout our wonderful customer Alex for consulting with us on what firing option would be best for the space. Their help is so appreciated!
