It’s officially the last day of Wild Ivy 🧡
We thought we’d share some pictures of the journey we’ve been on over the last few years.
Just a Mum and Daughter with a love for colour and interiors and a dream of their own little gift shop. We were so excited when we got the keys and got straight to work. We created our fun and colourful shop with absolutely NO retail knowledge. We then went on to win a Muddy Stillettos award, have market stalls in the square and at Knebworth Christmas Fair. The shop went from bright blue to bright orange and we welcomed the amazing upstairs.
The shop has definitely been on a journey and over the years we really created our gift shop vision. We spent so much of our time filled with laughter and have such fond memories.
However, running your own business comes with its challenges and sacrifices. We’ve welcomed a new member of the family over the past year and it’s been hard to juggle personal challenges with owning a shop. As much as it’s sad to close the door today to Wild Ivy, ultimately it’s the right decision for us and we can’t wait to have much needed family time together.
Thank you to every customer over the years, to our family and friends for their continued support, to our wonderful members of staff, superstar suppliers and awesome shop neighbours - we have made some special friends 🥰
Over and out,
Karen & Jade
