We were robbed last night. It’s Mother’s Day weekend, we can’t afford to be closed. We have to recoup losses and keep bills paid. At this point, our ask is just to show up. If you have the means to help us board up the door, that’d be great. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

You can’t keep a good bitch down. They hit on Friday and they tried us and last night. These are the things small businesses don’t need to deal with as we are navigating keeping the lights on. We know it’s a sign of the times, we feel the desperation, but we will not fall into a negativity loop, we can’t. We are open, we will be happy to see you and we would love your support! Come support our lovely neighbors too! Happy Tuesday! 😘

New ceramic cute tiny houses from local artist are now available in store! I don’t know about you, but I just love small little handmade trinkets. They spark joy. I need joy. So do you. If tiny cute trinkets spark joy for you too, come on by! ❤️ Also, F**k ICE because cute houses can’t stop my rage, they help though!

Well I wrote a good post and then it didn’t have sound so here I go again. I’m bad at tech! We are closing tomorrow in solidarity with MN and the ICE OUT movement. It is an easy moral decision to close but closing a small business is never without financial ramifications. Fighting fascism is hard and there are consequences but the price of not fighting it is much too high. So, come support us when you can and we will be here supporting our community and fighting the good fight!

We’ve decided to close tomorrow in solidarity with MN and the ICE OUT movement. This is a morally easy decision but it is never easy to close a small business without financial ramifications. Fighting fascism is filled with all kinds of emotions and consequences, but not fighting it comes at far higher a price. We stand with immigrants, we are almost all immigrants, any other description of our national fabric is false. We are a nation of magnificent immigrants and they make it better. Please come support us on another day and stay home tomorrow if you can!

Wow! I’m blown away by how this community has showed up this holiday! We are grateful beyond words and we hope all of you have an amazing holiday and happy New Year! We are open Christmas Eve from 10-3 and Closed on Christmas. We will be back open Fri and thru the weekend for regular hours 10-5pm. I know I’m definitely late to shopping because of all the shows we did, so I will definitely be making last minute purchases around town, we are here for you if you are behind like me! We still are pretty stocked and of course, full of our fun in-house brand of stickers, earrings, mugs, rings, etc. 🎄🎅🏻❤️☮️🌟🏳️‍🌈
