We are a small boutique with over 75 unique vendors with no two selling the same products (by design). Our vision is to provide an outlet for talented people in the local area to sell their handcrafted, and sometimes retail, items to the public. As a veteran owned business, we always honor those who are currently, or have previously, served our country in uniform.
We offer a tremendous variety of merchandise that can fulfill most any gift giving requirement, home decor need, clothing or accessory desire, and healthy (and some not so healthy) food temptation. Nearly 75% of our merchandise is handmade by local vendors and we love giving back to our community through donations and by embracing local talent.
Kristina Benca is the sole owner of the store. After retiring from the Air Force, she began her business selling pickled and canned foods and expanded to selling a variety of specialty merchandise in some local businesses. Desiring to provide a mutually beneficial environment for other 'makers' like herself, she opened her own store in January 2021. Since opening, over 70 active 'makers' have offered a wide variety of merchandise to a tremendous customer base.
Kristina has a very active and athletic son that keeps her on the go when she is not at the store or at home canning more delicious food products.
