we know… we’ve been pretty quiet over here. and that’s because, well, we’ve been doing some business soul searching and figuring some things out. sometimes, you have to unplug a bit to reset. here’s where we’re at: erin and i have decided that the brick-and-mortar portion of the business has served its purpose for us. we’ve thought and talked and prayed—long and hard. we’ve asked lots of difficult questions and come to the realization that this beautiful and sweet part of our lives has come to an end. it has been one of the biggest successes and joys of our lives. it’s been fulfilling and confusing and stretching and we’ve loved it so much. we’ve loved doing this together, we’ve loved seeing your faces and having hour-long conversations with so many of you. all you wanted was a necklace but you shared your heart and we will forever be grateful. we’ve loved our employees and all the vendors and people we’ve met through this chapter. but, this chapter feels over for us. we started all this as a chance to be creative, do business together, and make a difference in our community. we aren’t finished with these things, but we are finished doing them through the brick-and-mortar shop. we set this portion of the business down with hearts full of gratitude and tears full of joy and sadness. i don’t think i all the way knew the meaning of "bittersweet" until these past few weeks. you’ve supported us and loved us and from the very beginning; you've welcomed us. we’ve put our kids in dance class, in football, and we’ve put dinner on the table because of you. you made our job feel meaningful and purposeful. because of you, we learned a multitude of business lessons. and the most important lesson we learned has nothing (or maybe, everything) to do with business: show up, give back, and do it over and over everyday. {keep reading}

There's one more chance to grab your Wild Juniper gifts before Christmas and it's today! Come in from 10-4!

because your kid is cute and smart and all that, but even you need wine or some retail therapy sometimes. giving wine to an educator is for some reason frowned upon, so at least grab her something she won't throw in a closet when she gets home.

your favorite gifts are rarely the most expensive ones. they’re the ones that come with context and meaning. it’s the little things.

these scrunchies have stocking stuffer written all over them.

"We can't put off living in our homes until that blissful day when things are finally perfect." this book is a great read for the hibernation season and is amazingly giftable.
