As the saying goes....."Time Flies When You're Having Fun."
It's hard to believe that a year ago today we were celebrating the Grand Opening of A Beautiful Mess with over 200 family, friends, and customers from all over.
It was the end of ten very long and exhausting days of cleaning, tearing down, building and moving everything into what was evolving into a beautiful mess. A journey I never would've dreamt could be so fulfilling and successful. We have all basked in the love and support of our family and friends; which is wonderful, but we have truly been blessed with the support of our amazing followers and customers.
Tina, Marilyn, Karen, Victoria, and The Junk Girls and I, have all learned so many valuable lessons this past year. A lesson that is changing my life is; life is too short not to make time for those you love and you must take chances in order to succeed. I am not sure where I read this, but the following quote resonates within me, "The days are long and the years are short..." Think about it.... Making time for our loved ones while pursuing our dreams is vital to all of our success.
Today is not just a day of celebrating our one year Anniversary, but a day of celebrating our individual successes, and our success together, working as a team. We're so looking forward to what's ahead and looking forward to an even more successful year two!!
We would like to say a very special thank you to all of our customers and followers, because without you, this year wouldn't have been what it was! Thank you!
To Lu Tapp our friend and photographer, without your beautiful photography nothing would be the same! You've graced the store with your talent and helped it to flourish through your art. Love you.
In honor of our Anniversary we decided it would be great to offer all of our wonderful followers and customers a chance to win some of the merchandise offered in "The Mess" as a way of saying, "Thank You for a great year!" So, we will be hosting a 6 week long giveaway (Yes, that's right 6 weeks filled with chances to win) featuring a different vendor in the store weekly and the item they will be offering for the weeks giveaway. The winner will be chosen every Sunday evening and their name will be announced with the "Giveaway item of the week" on our Blog and Facebook page on Monday mornings. Be sure to check back every Monday, for not only your name, but the
"Giveaway item of the week."
The first giveaway will start today and be announced on Monday November 7th. This weeks giveaway is a set of my 3 Fine Grains pillows, created using authentic antique German grain sacks and French linen from the early 1800's. These pieces feature very rare hand drawn horses and the initials M.B. which belonged to the farmer in Germany. They retail at $800.00 for the pair.
