We have some VERY exciting news! The Motley Junket girls have been invited to team up with The Original Goumas
Candyland at a new storefront in Granville, Ohio! What a fun combination
of goods - decadent handmade chocolates and shabby vintage home decor -
"sweet vintage" if you will!
We have been so busy prepping the space with gallons and gallons of paint, antique book pages and sweat equity with the help of some amazing friends! Without the team effort, we never would have finished all the painting in just two days! Thank you all so very much!
We have been bringing loads of vintage goods that are all stacked up in the corner right now. We're waiting until the candy showcases arrive to figure out our arrangement. Then, the vignettes will begin to take shape!
We'll share photos, the address, and opening date soon!
Funny story.....yesterday, I was taking a rest on the front stoop of the shop with two of my favorite little girls who had just brought me my own little goodie bag filled with Goumas Candyland chocolates......severely delish coconut haystacks to be exact......when a young man stopped by and inquired about what we were doing inside. We had a quick conversation in which I explained the shop's combination of candy and vintage shabby industrial stuff. He then retorted with a little poem for us....."industrial chic and something sweet.....right off of Main Street"! Still giggling! And loving the fact that folks are already dropping in to see what's up!
Stay tuned for more info! Oh, and we're keeping our booths at Heritage Square too!
