‼️sentimental birthday post from Rylie alert ‼️
Today is Wijaya House’s wonderful founder/tastemaker/yapper’s birthday! (if you know Melati you know she hates being called the owner of Wijaya House but that is also what she is 😝
If you have visited Wijaya House before I hope that you have had the luxury of having a conversation with Melati before as in my opinion that is the main draw to Wijaya. Melati is the most welcoming and talkative person I know, she has provided so much insight and knowledge that has benefited my life immensely and anyone who visits her shop.
Wijaya House is her passion project and you can tell that from every aspect of the interior design and the books we shelf. Everyone who visits comments that it is the coziest little bookshop and that is due to Melati’s taste and that this store basically looks like her home.
All of our flower events wouldn’t be possible without her hosting expertise & all of her wonderful innuendos. If you haven’t taken a class with her leading it, you’re missing out.
To wrap it up, Melati is the best person to ever open a bookshop and she is full of Melati Lore ™ (like did you know she sang for bill murray or ran a cupcake business) And just overall is the best boss & mother to 2 kids (which I am not one of, tragically) 🤍💌
