Whelp, my summer "off" rolled into August, because that's life. To some, it may have seemed like I didn't take any time off with everything going on, but I was able to step back and reevaluate where I'm at and what's in store for me personally and for us as a company. I was also able to take a handful of trips with my family and James and I celebrated fifteen years of marriage. I was also able to sleep in (when Maximus wasn't up at the crack of dawn), read good books, knock out a massive personal to-do list that I feel like I've been carrying around for close to a year and have some much-needed down time to rest.
If you're curious as to what's going on and why, all the details are in a blog post linked in our story, but in summary, OAK is moving out of Charlotte (more info to come on that soon). Not sure where we're going yet, but what I am sure of is that we will be focusing on developing our candle line and design projects (spots open starting in October) through the end of this year. As of now, we will not have any shows, but will continue to offer our amazing finds online. We may have a pop up in the fourth quarter, but it'll be intimate and not the big shows you're used to, but if it happens, it will be amazing.
For more details on the why, and what’s next, and my journey these last few months, head to the link in our story. I can’t wait for this next chapter.
Cheers, Ginny
