As we approach the end of an era in Auburn, we find ourselves reflecting on the journey that has brought us to this moment. Our shop will be closing its doors at the Outlet Collection Sunday, February 25th. This is not an end, but a transition to a new chapter, as we secure a different location.
Reflecting back, it's hard to believe we started in Auburn as a 3-month pop-up. Those early days, filled with dreams and anticipation, quickly turned into several years. We've been so lucky to have a community like you who turned our little shop into a home.
A huge hug and thanks to the Outlet Collection for giving us the opportunity. They saw potential in our little pop-up and gave us the chance to grow into the boutique we are today. That leap of faith meant the world to us, and it’s been an incredible ride learning the ropes of running a full store with their support. This opportunity was more than just a space, it was a chance to dip our toes into the vast ocean of retail, to learn the ebb and flow of seasons, the subtle cues of customer wishes, and the dance of visual merchandising and ambiance that turns a store into a destination.
As the chapters of our story unfolded, we learned the intricate ballet of managing a store. Each day was a lesson in patience, in the art of balancing the demands of handcrafted manufacturing with the retail side. Our staff, a remarkable ensemble of individuals, showed an extraordinary blend of independence and patience.
As we close this chapter in Auburn, we carry with us the love, the lessons, and the laughter that have filled our days here. This isn’t a goodbye, it’s a see you later. Our story is far from over, and we’re excited to take you with us to our next chapter.
Stay tuned, stay connected, and most importantly, stay cozy. Our new location is waiting to be unveiled, and we promise it’s going to be worth the wait.
Thank you, Auburn, for everything. You’ve made this place more than just a store, you’ve made it a community. Here's to new adventures, new memories, and all the selfcare days ahead. We can’t wait to share our next step with you, and we promise, the best is yet to come.
Love and bath bombs,
Mesha & Karla 💖
