WE HAVE A SHOP

Wow!

Here we are!!! I am so delighted to open this shop to you. It feels deeply personal, like a book of secret inspirations and imaginative thoughts that I haven’t known how to share but somehow they have all manifested into this tangible creation.

I have known for a long time that I wanted a shop. I really doubted I would get here, at least not for several years. Yet, God has smiled upon me and blessed me with this space, this opportunity. I don’t mean that cheesy. I just know this opportunity doesn’t come to everyone. I’m incredibly grateful - for the space, the timing, my landlord, any and all who have assisted me in weddings or setting up the flower shop, my family, friends, and my most patience husband.

For the past 3 months, I have walked into this shop, feeling immensely excited and exceedingly nervous. Can I do this? Is this really happening? Am I professional enough? Does it look cheap? Is this really happening? Will I have it ready in town? Am I wasting my money? Is this really happening?

I’ve walked in here almost every day since February, worried I wouldn’t achieve what I wanted or concerned what I wanted to achieve wasn’t enough. And then last week - the shelf got built, the paint dried, someone emailed about assisting, pictures were hung. Last week, it came together. It dawned on me…Yes. Yes, this is really happening. It’s here and I’m so excited.

Thank you for supporting me! Thank you for giving me creative licenses and letting me try out things, even ones that didn’t turn out so good. Thank you for loving flowers and for supporting small businesses.

I hope you love it. I hope you feel inspired and I hope you feel at home, too.

Love, Joanna B Dyer
