Stillwater lost one of its brightest lights 🩵

Chris was the kind of person who made people feel welcome & if you knew Chris, you knew you had a true friend. Through his courageous battle with cancer, he continued to show the strength, kindness & genuine spirit that so many of us admired.

My heart is with Patti, his children, grandchildren, devoted staff, and the countless friends who became like family along the way.

You fought bravely, Chris. You will be remembered with love and missed beyond words.

✨NEW MAKER✨ Good_Ass_Hair_Day

We’re a “started-in-the-basement, now we’re here” kind of brand, built on a passion for positivity and hair products that actually make styling easier, faster, and way more fun.

From our cult-fave non-aerosol dry shampoo to our hydrating shampoo + conditioner sticks, every product is made with clean ingredients and a whole lotta love. Whether you're on day two or day five (no shame), we've got your back.

Thank you for being a part of our journey. We couldn’t have done it without you!
Thanks!

Hi friends 👋🏼 sharing this feels a little outside my comfort zone because I much prefer to feature & post about our many talented makers. I realize many people may not actually know that I’m the coordinator/owner behind the scenes of Locale Makers Market.

Locale was born during a season of grief, healing, and trying to find purpose through creating. What started as hand stamped jewelry in 2020 slowly grew into something much bigger. Not just for me, but for many makers who were also creating their way through difficult seasons during COVID and beyond.

From our humble beginnings in Somerset to the beautiful community we’ve built in Stillwater, Locale has always been about connection, creativity, and supporting not just small businesses, but the people behind them. Watching this community grow and change has been one of the greatest privileges of my life.

Something many people don’t know is that tucked quietly in the back of Locale is my healing space: TLC Energy Works. A peaceful little sanctuary where I offer Reiki, sound healing, crystal healing, intuitive guidance, and sometimes just a safe place to set down your burdens for a while. At the end of the day, I’m someone who believes above all else: PROTECT YOUR PEACE! I believe deeply in compassion, empathy, meeting people where they’re at and helping others feel seen and supported however we can.

I rebranded a long time ago & Facebook just doesn’t want to let me grow 😆 I am going to archive my old page and am starting fresh. If you’d like to follow along, maybe learn a little or support my new page, I’d be so grateful:

We are honored to support local makers whose work gives back to the communities and wild places they love. We’re proud to support The Aspen Owl who is doing their part to help protect the beauty and wilderness of the Boundary Waters.

For years, the Boundary Waters has been one of the places that resets my soul. The quiet. The water. The sunsets that somehow never look real.

This piece was created from that feeling - a calm evening paddle as the light fades across the lake.

It’s also the beginning of a new series inspired by my own Boundary Waters photos and experiences.

I’m incredibly excited to share that proceeds from this piece will be donated to Save the Boundary Waters to help protect and preserve the wilderness that inspired this design.

You can find this piece on my website:
