Vintage Days & Community Roots 💜✨

Today was one of those rare, full-circle kind of days

Vintage Days turned out to be so much more than simply setting up brooms and meeting customers. It felt like one of those gentle reminders that when you create from the heart, the right people somehow always find their way to you

We met so many wonderful souls throughout the day…artists, neighbors, fellow makers, and kind strangers who somehow didn’t feel like strangers for very long

One of my favorite parts of the day was realizing just how many creative, talented, and genuinely good people are right here in our own little corner of Franklin County, VA. From artists and shop owners to fellow handmade souls, it truly felt like community in the best kind of way 💫

A huge thank you to Amy for creating such a warm and welcoming event, and to Sherry and Becky for being the best extra sets of arms and encouragement all day long. By the end of it, it felt less like a vending event and more like sitting among friends!

And somewhere between all the conversations, old treasures, broomcorn, laughter, and beautiful handmade things…we officially confirmed that Brooke & The Broomstick will also be part of:
✨ Rocky Mount Fest this September 19th
✨ Come Home to a Franklin County Christmas in Dec

Though I didn’t sell every broom today, I’m honestly just so thankful we got to be part of it all

Because at the end of the day, this is what it’s really about:
Growing roots 🫚
Meeting good people 💖
Becoming part of the community around us 🌎

And today, I feel like those roots grew a little deeper💫🧹💜
