Listen. I don’t even like cats. I’m not even sure I like this song.

But I think this mug is so cute.

In related news, have you ever listened to an artist do a cover of a song and it completely change the way you feel about it?

Search for Dermot Kennedy’s version of “Anti-Hero” on YouTube. Gives me goosebumps.

Now go listen to that song and let me know what you think.

I don’t even know how to express how grateful I am to all the customers who have shopped with us the last few months.

It has been unreal. Beyond my wildest dreams.

I feel so blessed to be able to serve a community of people who have done so much for me.

I am a book lover to my core. It is thrilling to see y’all come into the shop and get that same excitement I have over books.

In the month of November we sold over 150 books! It is mind blowing.

So from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

We look forward to serving this community more in the new year.

If you have purchased anything from our store, post a picture and tag us.

Love y’all! Thank you again!

Blind book prep day.

Lots of fun titles will be hitting the shop this weekend 😍

Don’t worry I also have some more thrillers, fantasy, and historical fiction too that y’all love.

And yes, I’m officially jealous of all our customers. I desperately want to keep all of these books for myself.

We are open every day from 10-8pm in the Cary painted tree.

Thank you for shopping local and supporting our small business this holiday season 🥰

I may or may not “sing” the words on this pin to Mariah Carey’s “Dreamlover”

Good luck getting that out of your head the rest of the day.

These cute pins are in the Cary shop and coming soon online.

We are loading the shop with the holiday spirit. Lots of holiday romances are hidden within our blind books. Look for the red & green ribbon.

We are open 10-8pm at the Cary, Painted Tree in the Crossroads shopping center. Booth H15.

We did a huge restock this morning. Y’all showed up over the weekend 😍

I added a bunch of new pins, keychains, and totes.

I also brought more books. Mostly romance and thrillers.

Don’t forget to tag us when you unwrap your books.

I also have some really fun candles and t-shirts coming. I can’t wait.

I may have also added them all to my kindle too.

Shop folkandfableco.com

Local friends - they will be in the shop in Cary on Sunday 🥳

We have a website!

Let’s call this the soft launch.

I am still loading products and I need to add info about who we are and our story.

But you can shop and look around! Finally 🥳

Click the link in our bio to shop. Free shipping for orders over $75.

We will be carrying some of these items in our Cary boutique at some point but for now you can find them online.

I had a lot of fun putting this together. I will be mixing it up with each launch. Right now I’m focusing on our book lover and retro collection.

This has quickly become my favorite sweatshirt. It is soft and cozy on the inside and perfect to wear while snuggling up with your favorite dark hero.

Shop the look - https://folkandfableco.com/product/in-my-villain-era-crewneck/

p.s. New products are being added daily. Make sure you like our page so you don't miss anything. I will updating on here and our IG daily.

I love taking vintage pieces and making them feel fresh and new again.

We carry a wide variety of Pfaltzgraff pieces waiting to be used at your next brunch or get together.

I’ve put together a few facts and photos of the Yorktowne pattern. It is one of my favorites.
It’s simple in design and looks gorgeous on this breakfast table.

Curious about our blind books?

I personally handpick every title and do my best to make sure every book is like new or new condition.

The titles are typically romance (it’s my fave) but I do let contemporary, historical, and mystery slip in there.

All books are standalone or book 1 of the series. If the books are part of a series but can be read without reading in order and still enjoyed, it’s possible to have them slip in there.

You won’t find discolored or warped pages, rips or bends with our books. If the spine is worn, we won’t sell it. If there are slight imperfections, it will reflect in the price, but I promise it will still look new.

These books will be added to the shop this weekend.

Visit us in Cary from 10-8pm every day. We are currently in booth S27, but will be moving on the 1st.

Starting in October we are also going to be doing monthly giveaways for anyone who shops with us.

Painted Tree Boutiques

It’s Friday and my current vibe is high.

What are your weekend plans?

If you are in Cary, be sure to stop by the Painted Tree Boutiques and check out our booth. We are in S27.

Pick up a new book to read or a cute vintage mug.

Do you remember 90’s flair?

It’s making a comeback.

I am obsessed with enamel pins. You can put them on canvas tote bags, backpacks, canvas wall decor, hats, jackets, whatever you want.

They are a fun way to show off your personality. Or in my case, warn people away lol

We have a ton in our shop in the Painted Tree Boutiques in Cary. And soon they will be online too.

I will make a video to show y’all how I like to style them.

I was meant to live in a different time. I love this vintage stuff so much. This is part of today’s thrifting score 🤩

Blind books are like Tinder of the book world. Just keep swiping through the stack until you find a book boyfriend that suits your needs.

I would guess 80% of our blind books are romance. The other 20% are women’s literature or mystery/thriller.

Look, I like what I like 🤷🏻‍♀️ I only buy books to resell that (A) I have already read and loved (B) Has a solid goodreads rating or (C) I want to read

And you can always count on like new condition or minimal damage & a lower price for you.

Probably both.

I started with very little experience. I I can’t tell you how many businesses I’ve started over the years. I’ve made jewelry. I’ve sold art. I’ve been a photographer. I think I’ve attempted to make every hobby into a business (I don’t recommend this).

One thing they’ve all had in common is I started knowing very little. I started at ground ZERO.

You will always start with zero experience, very little knowledge (trust me when I say you learn more as you go), and zero customers.

You can’t get to the top unless you start at the bottom.
If you want, go get it. If not now, when?

What business do you want to start? What are you waiting for?

When the husband asks if I'm busy with work tonight.

Boo, I'm always busy.

Any other night hustlers out there building their brand?
