Back to Our Roots with Our First Pop-Up in Years

There is an energy at a local pop-up that you just can’t replicate online or in a studio. This past weekend, Klee and I did something we haven’t done in years: we set up a full pop-up shop at Clifford’s.

Getting all our displays out of storage, dusting them off, and seeing everything set up in one place felt like a homecoming. It’s been a long time since we hit the pavement like this, and honestly, we didn’t realize how much we missed it until we were right in the thick of it.

That Surge of Connection

The best part of the day wasn’t just showing off the art or the jewelry; it was that undeniable surge of community connection. In a digital world, it is so easy to forget how much power there is in a face-to-face conversation.

We spent the day talking to neighbors, meeting new people, and catching up with friends who have followed our journey through the ups and downs of this year. Hearing people’s stories and seeing their reactions to our work in person reminded us exactly why we started doing this in the first place.

Dusting Off the Displays

Bringing out the full display setup was a bit of a workout, but it was worth it. Seeing our creative world condensed into that space at Clifford’s was a great reminder of how much we’ve built over the years. It felt good to stand behind the table again, side-by-side, sharing what we love with the people around us.

The Beginning of Something Awesome

This pop-up at Clifford’s marks more than just a successful day of sales. It feels like the beginning of a new chapter. We are feeling inspired, recharged, and ready to engage with our local community in a much bigger way.

There is a momentum building right now, and we are leaning into it. This event reminded us that no matter how big the murals get or how many books we write, that heartbeat of local connection is where the real magic happens.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, said hello, or took a piece of our world home with you. We’re just getting started!
