✨ Things I’ve been able to do because YOU supported my small business. ✨
Every order, share, like, recommendation, and purchase has meant so much more than just supporting a small business. It has helped create memories, experiences, and opportunities for my family that I’ll carry with me forever. ❤️
Because of your support, I was able to:
🤎 Put my son into Boy Scouts
💚 Take my daughter to Girl Scout camp
🦋 Take my kids to the butterfly exhibit
🤸♀️ Buy my kids a trampoline
🎂 Celebrate my kids’ birthdays
🏕️ Take my family camping
🏜️ Visit Bandelier National Monument and Balmorhea State Park during spring break
🌄 Visit the Grand Canyon
🏜️ Explore Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Lassen and Arches National Parks
🌲 Travel to Oregon to pick up my daughter and buy her a plane ticket home
🏔️ Take a trip to Lake Tahoe
🌊 Enjoy endless lake days and trips while visiting my parents
❤️ Make memories with my mom and dad in California
When you buy something handmade from Butte Valley Handmade, you’re not just buying something I made.
You’re helping a mama create a childhood for her kids filled with adventures, experiences, celebrations, family, and memories.
Some things have been big—traveling across the country, exploring national parks, and making trips to see family. Some have been simple. Buying a trampoline, celebrating birthdays, camping, or spending endless summer days at the lake.
And some have simply been about making sure my kids can be together and get home safely.
Every single one has meant something.
Your support has helped me give my kids experiences I may not have otherwise been able to give them. It has allowed us to see new places, try new things, spend time with family, and make memories that will last far beyond the things we bought or the places we visited.
I don’t take that for granted.
Every order, every share, every recommendation, and every person who has chosen to support my little handmade business has played a part in these moments.
You’re not just supporting a small business.
You’re supporting a mama.
You’re supporting my kids.
You’re helping us make memories. ❤️
And I hope you know just how incredibly grateful I am.
Thank you for being part of our story. 🤎
