Jessie Mae’s Gourmet Pantry
You can find gourmet food, adorable mugs, classic tea cups, and kitchen items in my Gourmet Pantry! Antiques & Uniques Vintage Market is where you can find the sweetest jams, refreshing tea, a variety of delicious candy, and almost anything else you can think of. These items are all hand selected, and I hope you find something that makes you feel good.
Antiques & Uniques Vintage Market
My pantry is located in my booth at Antiques & Uniques Vintage Market. I’m so excited to have a dedicated space for my pantry items at this beautiful store. You can find a collection of candy, teas, bread mixes, jellies, and more.
It’s The Little Things
Having a small business is no piece of cake, as many of my friends could tell you. There are times where you feel like giving up, that you’re not good enough, and that no one really needs what you’re selling. Sometimes, it’s the little things that make all the difference.
The most important thing to remember when you start a business is to have a good support system. This helps A LOT until you have a consistent customer base. My family and friends have been there for me through all the stages of Happy Creations, and the other day I had the sweetest interaction with one of my customers.
An Afternoon At Sweet Home Vintage Market
Every week or so, I visit my booths at Sweet Home and Uptown. These visits are for adding inventory, rearranging some things, and sprucing up my merchandise. Recently, I took a trip down to Sweet Home to replenish some items and was pleased to see a healthy number of customers perusing the shop. After hanging a new piece, a group of women walked into my booth talking about how they loved my merchandise.
I don’t believe they knew it was my booth at first. I introduced myself as the owner and was pleasantly surprised by how enthusiastic one of them was.
“Oh I love your booth, I buy from here all the time!” The woman was so kind, and had brought in her friends/relatives to look in my booth. Having that interaction erased any of those doubts about my business. Even if just for an afternoon, I was confident in the time I spent working hard on my Happy Creations and building this business.
Moral of the Story
If you find yourself struggling with your business, your career, or just in life (it’s hard regardless of what you do!), remember that there are people out there that support you and love you. Even if you don’t know who they are, there’s someone who roots for you. Take solace in the little things that bring your joy. And above all else, God will show you that you are loved when you need it most.
