About the Owner
My name is Katee and finally being a small business owners is such a dream come true! Since I was little I have wanted to plant roots somewhere I loved and be a part of the downtown life through owning a small business. I grew up a military brat where I adopted a huge appreciation for my country, new places, and meeting new people. Unfortunately we were only stationed in hot and dry duty stations so when we moved to Leavenworth, with grass and snow, I was in love. After high school I married the love of my life. We lived on love and lots of ramen. When he graduated from K-State University we knew we wanted to move back to Leavenworth. We wanted to buy a house here, become members of the community, and raise our family here.
Quickly after moving back we started tackling those goals. We bought a house and shortly discovered that we were pregnant, only to be gutted with a early miscarriage. After grieving I wanted to start something amazing. I started throwing myself into ideas when my heart became obsessed with children's resale stores. I knew I needed to bring one to Leavenworth. A few weeks after the idea hit me I was told that a sweet acquaintance was miles ahead of me in starting a resale store. Between knowing she would do it well and finding out I was pregnant for the second time, I knew that wasn't the end for me but it wasn't my time. Fast forward two and a half years, I was notified that the store was for sale. I contacted the owner immediately through every form of communication I knew how. I'm still humbled that I have been chosen to carry the store and the vision on!
I look forward to clothing mamas and their babies (newborn to junior), contributing to a sustainable world, and creating dignity in secondhand shopping through my little store!
