✨Meet the owner & the business✨ I don’t think I’ve ever truly introduced myself in my feed. Hi my name is Sam & I’m the girl behind the business. I’m a wife to my Highschool sweetheart, and a mama to 3 wild little boys. Brody, my oldest is my reason to how Lonnie Lane Boutique came to fruition. I was (and still am) a preschool teacher, but my little dude had some special needs that lead me to become a stay at home mama - which launch this sweet little side gig for me 🤍 I then was able to get him into a fun program that suited him best, and I went back into the classroom- only then to have a Store front fall right into my lap right in the heart of downtown Wendell. So I left my job and jumped right into the next phase to this sweet business of mine- this truly blessed my “mom gig” and to say Wendell stole my heart is an understatement. I felt right at home, and met some pretty awesome customers who turned into friends. A couple of years later my third kiddo was born and we had a scary turn of events with him, which ultimately left me with the decision to close the doors to our little shop in downtown Wendell. I was sad, but I had so much peace with it. God always has a plan, and I trust him without any hesitations. I went back into the classroom- which put this business on pause (mom life in full affect lol) but just recently, again without looking, another store front location was offered to me, but this time as a vendor inside - God provided the best case scenario for my lifestyle as a full time working Mama, but also allowing me to continue to run my business full time as well. I started LLB back in 2016 and I love this business with my whole heart, but I couldn’t do it without your local support - y’all have made this possible for me, and I’m forever grateful 🤍 I can’t wait to see where this “mom gig” takes us!! Xoxo- Sam
