Thank you, Black Mountain. 🤎
What an incredible weekend.
From the Town checking on me, bringing water, and offering relief as a one-person show—to the amazing vendors, families, friends, and complete strangers who walked into Bee & Brim and somehow left feeling like friends—I felt so much love.
And the stories. Those are always my favorite part.
Single moms. Veterans. New parents. Grandmas. Partners surprising each other. The grandpa on oxygen carrying flowers for his sweetheart. 🌸 The teenager who reminded me that our differences matter far less than taking the time to know one another. And even the new boyfriend who somehow ended up asking me for relationship advice. 😂
These are the Brim Stories.
They’re unscripted, unexpected, and beautifully human. Somewhere between picking a hat and adding the finishing touches, people share pieces of their lives with me—and that will forever be my favorite part of Bee & Brim.
We made some AMAZING hats this weekend, but more importantly, we made moments.
Now I’m home cuddling my babies a little tighter after being away from them all weekend. I missed them terribly, but I hope the time I spent working to provide for them also allowed me to make a little difference in someone else’s life.
Black Mountain, thank you for welcoming Bee & Brim with open arms. We will definitely see you again next year!🤎
Every Brim Tells a Story.™
And goodness, did we collect some beautiful ones this weekend. 🐝🤠
