Hello from Beehive Shoppe's newest partner.

I'm Jessica, and I'm absolutely thrilled to share my journey with you as the newest partner at Beehive Shoppe. Dena and I have some fantastic plans in store for our online gift shop, and I can't wait for you to see all the unique and creative items we have in mind. But today, I want to take you on a little personal journey of mine, a moment of tranquility and inspiration right in the heart of Salt Lake City.

I moved into a charming house built in 1888, nestled on a quarter-acre lot in the city this spring to start a new urban adventure.  One of the most enchanting aspects of this historic house is the presence of fruit trees that have stood here for generations. Apricots, grape vines, nectarines, and cherry plums grace my backyard, each telling a story of the years gone by. Today, I want to tell you about my favorite among them, the apricot tree.

Picture this: I sit under the sprawling branches of the apricot tree, its leaves rustling gently in the breeze, and the sweet scent of ripe apricots filling the air. From this spot, I have an unobstructed view of the majestic Utah mountains. The sight never fails to take my breath away. It's like having a little piece of the countryside right here in the heart of the city.

What truly adds magic to this scene is the symphony of bees buzzing around the apricot blossoms and fruit. They are nature's diligent workers, tirelessly pollinating and making the promise of a bountiful harvest. It's a reminder of the incredible interconnectedness of life and nature's marvels.

You might wonder why I'm sharing this personal moment with you. Well, it's because this experience embodies the essence of Beehive Shoppe. We aim to curate items that bring a touch of nature's beauty and serenity into your urban lives. Our focus on urban homesteading, cottage core, and Hygge aesthetics is all about creating a haven amidst the hustle and bustle, just like my apricot tree does for me.

As I sit here, watching the bees work their magic, I can't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to embark on this exciting journey with Dena. Her business acumen and my passion for design, home decoration, and sustainability are the perfect blend. And we're both committed to offering you adorable home goods that cater to the minimalist at heart, all priced thoughtfully for every budget.

So, whether you're looking for notecards, journals, wall art, or any other delightful treasures, rest assured that Beehive Shoppe will be your unexpected oasis of curious, provocative, and beautiful things.

Thank you for joining me under my apricot tree today. Stay tuned for more updates, inspiration, and of course, the wonderful products we're excited to bring to your homes.
