Keep going

Sometimes I'll write not just about introducing products, but also about what I've seen since starting the store.

It's only been about a month and a week since I started.

The shop doesn't have a sign (I know they should make one, haha) and there are no particular landmarks, so you can't find it unless you have a specific purpose in mind, so I can have a leisurely chat with customers who come to the shop.

The first thing I always ask my customers is, "How did you find out about this store?"

Most of the people said they had seen the shop card in the store, or on my Instagram or my accessory blog , but I was really happy to hear some people say that their friends had recently told them how good it was.

Furthermore, it seems that customers of the stores where we display our shop cards have told us that even though they have never been there, it sounds like a good store, and when I hear stories like this, I am reminded once again how grateful I am.

I'm really happy because people connecting with each other (word of mouth) is exactly what I had hoped for and is an ideal thing.

What we can do is to be a restaurant that makes people who have traveled all the way out of their way to come think, "I'm glad I came," and "I definitely want to come again."

Recently, larger antiques have been leaving the store one after another, and while I'm happy about that, I also feel a little sad that they will be gone from the store.

I'm glad that I started the shop because it helped me realize how much love (or attachment) I have for the things I've found.

We're just getting started.

I am in awe of those who have been running a shop for a long time, regardless of the industry.

Once you start, just keep going.

The hardest part is continuing this.

I want to continue finding only the things that I love so much that I don't want to sell them.
