If you love another shop, convo them and let them know. We are usually one person in our workshop, sewing room, or corner of the living room. We all belong to a giant community of like-minded people. I think that we tend to forget that the person behind that amazing shop is just like us.
This is something that I have done in the past but am now committing to do more often. I sometimes keep myself from doing this because I don't want to shop to think "if you like my shop so much why don't you just buy something?". But that's me playing devil's advocate and it's keeping me from encouraging others. I love it when someone compliments me on my products or shop. I love it when I'm informed when one of my items has been featured in a treasury or blog. Why not share the love?
Thanks to chakrapennywhistle for the encouragement to encourage. Btw: your shop is amazing! Your photos showcase your items beautifully.
Thanks so much for the mention! I am so glad that you enjoyed the interview and I totally agree with "sharing the love". I also play devil's advocate from time to time and have found that it slows things down. It gets in the way of the fun of it all.
