✨ A Note From Our Family to Yours ✨
We wanted to give you a heads-up: starting Monday (9/8) some of our prices will be going up in store and online.

Like so many small businesses, we’ve been feeling the impact of rising costs across the board. For the first time in years, we’re making this change so we can continue to keep our doors open and bring you the handcrafted, natural products you love.

We’re so grateful for your support, kindness, and understanding—it truly means the world to us. 💛

Come shop this weekend and stock up before the increase!
