The Studio

She’s hereeeee👀

A little story time- when we started this business 2.5 years ago, we truly had no intention of ever selling items online.

Every single thing that gets posted, event planned, email sent, transaction rung up is done by one of the three of us owners. We have no employees and do everything to keep this ship afloat. It is a labor of love, especially since we each run our own separate businesses as well.

BUT, as our audience has grown and events have gotten bigger, we constantly get asked if we ship items. We’ve thrown around the idea of a website for a year now and the slow summer months felt like the right time time to take the leap.

So here we are. We are starting SIMPLE and SMALL so we can figure out a work flow that works for the 3 of us. The site will evolve over time, but for now 90% of the items you see on this page will still only be available in the shop.

We are excited to spread even just a little bit of Heated Rivalry, American Girl Doll, Rory Gilmore love to those not nearby!🤩

TLDR: WE HAVE A WEBSITE. The link is in our bio!!!

A little story time- when we started this business 2.5 years ago, we truly had no intention of ever selling items online.

Every single thing that gets posted, event planned, email sent, transaction rung up is done by either Jamie, Caitlyn, or Lauren (the 3 owners). We have no employees and do everything to keep this ship afloat. It is a labor of love, especially since we each run our own separate businesses as well.

BUT, as our audience has grown and events have gotten bigger, we constantly get asked if we ship items. We’ve thrown around the idea of a website for a year now and the slow summer months felt like the right time time to take the leap.

So here we are. We are starting SIMPLE and SMALL so we can figure out a work flow that works for the 3 of us. The site will evolve and we’re adding new things every day so keep checking back! (Although much of our shop will still remain in person only!)
