The real reason why I couldn’t open the shop today.
There was a cat on my lap π
Just kidding. We lost power here and there and it just didn’t seem like a wise idea.
Of course, now the sun is shining and all is well.
Apologies if I missed you and see ya tomorrow!

April Book announcement π’
I am so excited about this one!
The hard cover is in stock at the shop and available for 30% off list!
Instant New York Times bestseller!
“A gorgeous, gut-wrenching” (Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author) historical novel about two mothers facing unthinkable choices as the Nazis invade France—from the New York Times bestselling author Kristin Harmel.
Paris, 1939: Young mothers Elise and Juliette become fast friends the day they meet in the beautiful Bois de Boulogne. Though there is a shadow of war creeping across Europe, neither woman suspects that their lives are about to irrevocably change.
When Elise becomes a target of the German occupation, she entrusts Juliette with the most precious thing in her life—her young daughter, playmate to Juliette’s own little girl. But nowhere is safe in war, not even a quiet little bookshop like Juliette’s Librairie des Rêves, and, when a bomb falls on their neighborhood, Juliette’s world is destroyed along with it.
When the war finally ends, Elise returns to reunite with her daughter, only to find her friend’s bookstore reduced to rubble—and Juliette nowhere to be found. What happened to her daughter in those last, terrible moments? Juliette has seemingly vanished without a trace, taking all the answers with her. Elise’s desperate search leads her to New York—and to Juliette—one final, fateful time.
A sweeping celebration of resilience, motherhood, and love, The Paris Daughter is “historical fiction at its best” (Sadeqa Johnson, New York Times bestselling author).

Good morning! π¬οΈ at the request of my dog and the very strong possibility of losing power and getting a free trip to the Land of Oz…we will be opening this afternoon.
Most likely between 1 and 2.
Stay grounded my friends!
Introducing π the new clothing line chosen at NYC Market earlier this month! Guuuuurl….COMFORTABLE and 100% organic cotton feature fun vintage feed sack designs. The top I am modeling has a boat neck and high/low hem with horses π΄ . We will offer a limited quantity of each style/pattern so get it while it’s here in Lillington! I will post as they come in from Washington state. **the dragon dress is shipping out today! Eeeeek!!! π
Turned off the heat this weekend at the shop to conserve propane and money… Then the temperature dropped, and it was 53 when I walked in. Good thing I have a space heater, a cozy alpaca blanket, hot tea, and beautiful art to appreciate on this dreary, rainy day.

Y’all. Show some appreciation for this reel that took me waaaay too long to compile. π
Attended a business summit today that was a virtual shot in the arm. Surrounded by fellow hustlers and dreamers, I have a renewed zeal and a lot more resources than I knew was at my fingertips.
Resolved not to go it alone and people are solutions. Enrolled in more classes. Did you know we have a lot of free resources available and I am here for it!!! Thanks @centralcarolinacc and @dunn_chamber @harnett_county

Thanks NYC! Returned home inspired and exhausted. The Market at The Javitz was spectacular. So many ideas, beautiful products, vendors, and seasoned shop owners got me feeling like this is actually my destiny. Glad to be home and, true to form, already planning the next buying trip! #lillingtonnc #affordablefashion #creative #eclectic #manhattan #industry #trends #gift
Can you help me? I’m in NYC for the apparel and accessories market at the Jacob Javitz Center. Window shopping and very small treats on 5th avenue. Here’s the question…What kinds of items would you like to see at GypsySoul?? I’ll be on the look out for more flex/sized and plus options of flattering, livable, affordable clothing.
Had my hot dog with mustard. Now in the lookout for a pretzel and cheesecake!

We all learned a lot, made new friends, and had fun! #plants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #planttherapy #terrarium #classes #craft #makingmemories #share #lillingtonnc #shoplocal #community #TagYourFriends
Well, well, well….. good news, bad news. Bad news is: I had plans with a book, a blanket, and the couch thinking there was a slight chance of getting snowed in!

The Duck Donut π© truck is at the shop 10-3 and get $5 off in the shop with donut purchase!

The duck donut truck is here right now and will be here until three or if weather conditions abruptly change. Come get your donuts and a five dollar off voucher to use in the shop at GypsySoul on any purchase.
Here we go, ladies! This is our month to reboot and invest back in ourselves. Personally, I believe that should be every day but specifically after the holidays it’s necessary. Are you listening? We hope our little shop is a place of friendship, harmony, inspiration, trinkets, and treats. Don’t forget, we have the free, everyone welcome book club meeting once a month. And check our events page because the terrarium classes is almost full!

So….I’ve heard grumblings that I post a LOT and only post the glamorous times in my life.
Well, dah-ling, that’s the secret…to try and make everyday glamorous π« (& it’s my page so whatever π)
For instance this evening I am bringing in the new year with a freshly washed hair, in the midst of a closet clean out, drinking my favorite red wine, wearing a muumuu, waiting on the Chinese food, hubby outside brewing his delicious beer, singing along with Alicia Keys, Pooka approving what I decide to keep…
My intention for the year is ‘selective’.
With my time, energy, and resources. I will be selective. I vow to ask myself with each decision…am I settling or being selective? That’s going to mean a whole lot of nope.
Cheers to my friends all over the world however you choose to celebrate! π₯
#muumuu #selective #movingon
What a day, what a life, what a world!
with grateful hearts, Tim and I say thank you to everyone who has supported us, joined us at these markets with your wonderful energy and talents, and applauded us from afar.
