🌱 Just a reminder! 🌱

Tomorrow is the New Roots Small Business Pop-Up at the Iowa Events Center from 8 AM–4 PM!

👇 Comment below and let me know if you’ll be there so we can keep this post moving and help spread the word!

Come support local vendors who are working hard to rebuild after the unexpected Painted Tree closure. Every purchase, share, and visit makes a difference for small businesses and local families. ❤️

If you’re planning to stop by and would like to order ahead for pickup, send me a message!

‼️‼️I’m going to be honest for a minute.‼️‼️

Since finding out about the closure, it’s been a roller coaster. At first, it was pure survival mode—getting all of my inventory out and finding somewhere to set up so I didn’t have thousands of dollars of product sitting with nowhere to go.

Then it was rush mode. Getting my new space in Granger up and running as quickly as possible, figuring out checkout, logistics, and how to make everything work for both the salon and my business.

Now that the dust has settled a little, I’ve realized I’ve been in a bit of a fog. I’ve struggled to find the excitement and energy I normally have for Rowe Casa. The behind-the-scenes work, bookkeeping, and even sharing products I love just felt overwhelming. I think I just shut down for a while.

But I’m ready to fight again.

This event means a lot because it’s not just about shopping—it’s about supporting small business owners who have been through one of the most difficult and unexpected challenges of their careers.

So come see me. Come see all of the vendors who have worked so hard to rebuild. Help me find that excitement again. ❤️

🌱 Support Local. Support Small. Support the Vendors. 🌱

ALL of the vendors participating in the New Roots Small Business Pop-Up were directly impacted by the sudden bankruptcy and closure of Painted Tree. For many small business owners, this meant an unexpected loss of income, inventory challenges, and having to quickly find new ways to continue serving their customers.

On June 6th from 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM at the Iowa Events Center, these incredible small businesses are coming together to rebuild, reconnect, and continue doing what they love. ❤️

We would love to see our amazing customers and community come out to support these hardworking vendors as they plant new roots and move forward.

🛍️ Planning to attend? If you’d like to order ahead and have your items ready for pickup at the event, send us a message! We’d be happy to help make shopping even easier.

Popping in for a quick update!

I was going to wait BUT I’m not good at that. 😆

The former space of The Painted Tree in Clive will REOPEN. 🫶🏻 tentatively in 6-8 weeks. What that means for TCC is that we WILL stay in our Granger location but we will also open back up in our previous spot as well!! YAY

I am forever grateful for all the connections iv made throughout this journey. Here’s to building back bigger and better. 🥳
