After a day of reflection yesterday, I can honestly say I’m damn proud of what the last three months have become.
Working a full time job two hours away, building a business, knocking out orders, and pouring countless hours into planning, organizing, and growing these markets… I definitely put a LOT of time, energy, and probably way too little sleep into it all.
But looking back? I wouldn’t change a damn thing.
I’m proud of what we built, proud of what these markets have become, and even more excited about what could be ahead. There are already plenty of ideas, feedback, and conversations happening about future markets, and I can’t wait to see where it all goes.
That being said… I said it all weekend and I mean it.
THERE WILL BE NO PAINTING THIS WEEK UNTIL FRIDAY.
I have piles of clean laundry staring at me, clean dishes stacked up, floors that haven’t seen a broom in weeks, and mentally… your boy needs a damn break.
So this week is for resetting, catching up on life, taking a breath, and letting the paint brushes sit untouched for a few days.
Most importantly, I just want to say THANK YOU. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who supported the market, showed up for the community, shopped with our vendors, brought your families, donated, participated, shared posts, and helped make each event what it was.
And to every single vendor who showed up and trusted us with your Saturday morning, thank you. These markets simply wouldn’t be what they are without you.
We’ve had one hell of a summer in the village, and I’m incredibly grateful I got to be a part of it.
And a special shoutout to Shared Moments Photography for capturing so many great moments at each event and sharing them back with the community. You’ve given us memories we’ll be able to look back on for years, and we appreciate you more than you know!
Thank you all for a great summer market season.
See you all again soon. 🤘🏼
