Feature Friday: this week is a double up! @carriec

Feature Friday: this week is a double up! @carrieclaydenart and @faithspanbullard have really beautiful work up at @botanicandluxe for the month. Pop on buy while you’re out stocking up on toilet paper and hand sanitizer. In all seriousness though, this is potentially going to be a very difficult time for small businesses and artists alike. If you choose to stay in and would like to support them while still practicing social distancing, a great way to do so is to purchase something from them online, or by liking,commenting on, or sharing a post on social media. All together now-ready...ENGAGE
