My friend, Jenni, moved to Eureka Springs last year, and just opened up the cutest shop called, The Lovely Ambition Mercantile, and it’s right on Main Street in downtown historic Eureka Springs. Jenni approached me about putting some handmade items in her shop and I jumped at the opportunity! Everything with Jenni’s touch just glows. She has a creative eye that can’t be matched. I knew if I was going to be brave enough put something I made out there for sale, her shop would offer the best odds at success. So I went for it, and delivered my first batch of creative works a couple weekends ago.
20 minutes after she opened the shop doors for the first time ever, Jenni sent me a text. I made a sale! The first sale was my art! Well that’s just as exciting as it gets.
Or so I thought. Seeing something I created in a display window just blew my mind. Selling 3 more items the first day of business REALLY blew my mind. Am I really doing this? You betcha. Why not?
Here are a few things I made and a few pics from my first trip to the shop (Quincy and Kristi A came along and were my support sisters)
So a week later, I received another order and now my kitchen has transformed into “Santa’s workshop” for the day while I have fun creating.

I'm so excited you're doing this. You're talented and I love that you're doing self care and nurturing your soul this way.
Those mason jar vase thingies are incredible. I wish I could buy one.
