Jeorjia Shea shifts her dream into a new gear with boutique-on-wheels

The Maiden Voyage weekend was so wonderful. It was incredible to see so many longtime customers again and to connect with new ones too. I can’t believe how few pictures and videos I took as I was a wee bit overwhelmed with all the excitement and moving parts.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this project, cheered it on from near and far.

I brought the bus in first thing Monday morning to make sure she’s ready for longer trips, and it turns out she’ll be getting a new radiator, four new rear tires, and an oil change. Usually a repair bill that high would have had me in a corner crying, but thanks to the sales this weekend, it was covered to the penny. So I’m grateful to hand it over, get her road ready for longer trips, and send her back out onto the road where she belongs. Long may she run.

I’ve also started listing pieces back up at jeorjia.etsy.com and am already planning our next trip, so stay tuned!

Thank you for helping turn what could have been an ending into a brand new adventure. ❤️✨

Comin right along…

I haven’t stopped since I spoke to you last. Working on building out the interior and realizing the exterior painting/drawing is probably going to be an evolving process that changes and grows over time.

I think Amelia’s robot is my favorite part so far… and there will probably be t-shirts featuring it.

I’m about to pull the trigger on a power setup that can comfortably run lighting, cooling, charging, and eventually expand with solar so this thing can really function as a little mobile creative space instead of just a painted bus in my driveway. I’ve decided I’m not going to cheap out on that part because I want us to actually be comfortable in there and have it function well long term.

And whew… this s**t is EXPENSIVE. 😅

This project only exists because so many people believed in it after everything with the shop fell apart. Every share, donation, encouraging message, random tool recommendation, and “keep going” has genuinely helped keep this thing moving.

I am having a pretty great time learning all these new skills though. I’m also very happy I didn’t panic-sell the shop fixtures because I’ve ended up repurposing almost all of them. I even built those wheel well boxes out of wood I found during bulk pickup night.

And maybe all this carpentry will finally teach me to measure twice and cut once with my sewing.

I’ll be closing the GoFundMe on May 31, so if you’ve been meaning to share it or contribute, now’s the time. Thank you all for helping me turn this wild little dream into something real.

Amelia painted a rainbow and I painted a bus. It’s not quite done, but it’s Done-ish… enough that I was able to start the interior fixtures and even make some clothes! I plan to be outside
for Open Studios June 6,7th with all the upcycled clothes I can manage to make by then. I don’t think the bus will be quite ready to debut by then but you’ll have to settle for me under a tent. Speaking of retake remake, Huge thank you to founder for her super generous donation towards completing the bus. Thank You All of You! It is getting there! ❤️
