Letting all my local shoppers know, we will NOT be at the Scarborough Farmers' Market tomorrow, 9/1 - we WILL be back in our regular spot the following week, 9/8!

We are taking the weekend off because my sister (who has been the most amazing helper this summer) is heading off on a new contract and she will be gone for 7 months! If you’ve been to any of my events this summer, you’ve probably seen Michaela being the most amazing & supportive big sis ever - could not have done half of what we did this summer without her!! Squeezing her tight this weekend. ❤️

We wish you all the best Labor Day Weekend!!

HELLO, FRIENDS! 👋🏻🫶🏻
This is a long post as I have a lot to say regarding events of the past weekend. Advance thanks for reading through to the end. ☺️

First, WE ARE GRATEFUL!
Our hearts are full! We are overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from the community, both near and far after our weekend at the Lewiston-Auburn Balloon Festival! (FB can sometimes be a positive place!)

⚡️Thank you to everyone who made a purchase this weekend!
⚡️Thank you to everyone who took time out of their day to admire our display and compliment our products!
⚡️Thank you to everyone who came to show support with hugs, referrals, and tips on Sunday because of my sister’s Facebook post. 🥹

THEFT & SILVER LINING
In short, on Saturday night, our pop-up shop was visited by a small group of school-aged girls who stole over $1K in custom jewelry pieces. It was witnessed, they were confronted, they ran. We went to the police onsite. They had left the property. It was shocking, emotional, heartbreaking, and traumatizing. We’ve had could’ve, should’ve, would’ve scenarios play on repeat in our minds, but we can’t go back in time, so, we’ve chosen to focus on THE SILVER LINING which is that the most generous and kind-hearted people have now come into our lives - YOU!

We are so incredibly moved by the good people of Lewiston/Auburn, and their friends. It is unfortunate we experienced such brazen theft as it is violating to have anything stolen from you whether it’s from your home, your car, or your business. We are forever changed by this, but it will not define us and we will continue to move onward and upward.

We refuse to let the actions of a few young thieves tarnish the reputation of the community as a whole—because everyone else we met was incredibly lovely!!! Aside from our unfortunate theft, the city put on a wonderful event and we really enjoyed ourselves!

WE SEE & HEAR YOU!
We are immensely grateful for hundreds of shares, comments and messages since Saturday and we wanted you to know that even if we haven’t replied, you aren’t going unnoticed! We are playing catch up, and we wanted to publicly say: WE APPRECIATE YOU, your tips, suggestions, kind words, support, and encouragement! ❤️

SUPPORT
Many have inquired how to shop, so I wanted to let you know:
⚡️My website MariaBoltDesignStudio.com is always available. I’ll be updating and listing my latest designs over the next two weeks. PLEASE STAY TUNED
⚡️For my brand new launches, you can request to join my VIP Customer group Maria Bolt Design Studio

MY HOME TEAM
I want to thank my mom & dad for their constant support, and give a special shout out to my protective, loving big sis Michaela for putting her own small business on hold to help me through my event-filled summer - and especially this past weekend. I couldn’t have done it without her!

If you have a second and would be so kind to help me thank my amazing sister, please give her a follow on her business and professional pages, I would appreciate it and I know she would, too! She’s a working live performer and makeup artist who offers free online tutorials and amazing products. Check out her immense talents! She’s incredibly gifted!

REFLECTION
Overall, it was a wonderful weekend! Although a lot was taken from us, more will be gained because when it was dark, we looked and found stars. THANK YOU FOR FOLLOWING AND BEING OUR SHINING STARS to help us through this experience!

❤️
