I’m heartbroken for Nex Benedict. Q***r kids deserve to live.

Hellllo everyone
Bisan has called for a global strike this week to protest the genocide in Palestine.

I plan for my store to be open as a place to just spend some time either browsing or hanging out Thursday/Friday/Saturday. I’ll put some signs up about the strike and my open sign won’t be on but doors will be unlocked. Please do your best to only buy essential items this week.

I do have several people scheduled to come pick up special orders and I will be making those sales. I plan to encourage anyone who wanders in and wants to buy something to put it on hold with me until next week. To be completely transparent I will probably allow some sales depending on the circumstance (distance traveled, time, any books about Palestine)
Thanks all, I’m trying my best.

Hello!
On Saturday February 10th Community Crow is hosting their first market, featuring local artists, crafters, makers, curators & more!
We hope to make this a semi regular market that’s affordable for vendors and provides an opportunity for the Rochester community to support all the wonderful small businesses out there! Gifts, art, crafts, second hand treasures, food, & more will be for sale!

Vendor applications are still being accepted, message me or follow to find the link to apply!

The event will take place at The Village Gate Atrium on the second floor from 11am-5pm.
274 N. Goodman St.
Rochester, NY 14607
(The building is accessible, with many entrances and an elevator.)

Open until 7 today and then closed until Wednesday 12/27!

Look at these winter hats with my logo! One can be yours for $22!

Candles!! Stop by to smell “The Long Lost Chapter” it has hints of autumn leaves, coffee, & sea salt!

I created this scent at , thanks to Christina for being helpful and amazing!

Theft!? My thoughts:

1. Pls don’t steal from me, or any small business! (Also be careful about stealing from the big stores, I hear their loss prevention is no joke)

2. I have cameras but I’m not concerned with “catching a thief”. I have them for safety/insurance purposes (and possible ghost sightings).
Also, sure this is easy for me to say when it’s a $16 pin, I don’t know exactly what I would do if hundreds of dollars worth of stuff was stolen, but hopefully the same way.

3. This isn’t the 1st or 3rd time I’ve noticed someone has taken something. It will probably happen again! And that’s okay. :)
But please keep in mind I am very sympathetic and I enjoy giving things away for free or offering up large discounts! So if you really want something but can’t afford it- let’s talk! (I’m also down for trades!)

That’s all!
