AS SEEN ON VOYAGE SAN ANTONIO
So thankful for the opportunity to talk about Handmade on Main, to tell some of our shop's story.
We've been thriving, and struggling. We've been recognized with nominations and an award. We were knocked down by covid. We've bonded over maker meetings. We share markets, ideas. We support and love on each other. We've had some losses. But have gained so many wonderful experiences and memories. There are bad months. There are great ones. We're part of some amazing downtown events. And we have the best customers!
It's a mixed bag. Such is life.
Above all, our little shop brings me so much JOY!
