After an incredible 26 days of holiday fun, another Christkindl Markt is officially in the books. So much work goes into making this event happen and I’m honored to be a part of it. Thank you to everyone who played a part in making the magic, to my husband Ted who is always wiling to help, and to all of my customers for your amazing support this year! Happiest of holidays to you all! ❤️

Ted cracking under the pressure and trying to decide if he’s supposed to say one of the funny things we role play in the quieter market moments or be serious. 🤣

Grateful today and everyday for this guy who brings my display dreams to life and helps me at every turn. There’s nobody I’d rather shiver in a wooden shed with all holiday season. ❤️

I’m also touched beyond belief by the support the W. Michigan community has shown my business these past 5 years. What started as just a little thing to do instead of micromanaging a virtual 3rd grade year has turned into an amazing way for me to connect with new people, find community in the W. Michigan art space, and channel my creative energy into something people can wear out in the real world. Pinch me! Thanks for being here. ❤️
