This Christmas, we want to send a heartfelt thank you to all emergency services — not just for what you do, but for what you give up.

To our first responders and emergency crews who work long hours, answer late-night calls, and put others first — we see you.

And to the families who sacrifice holidays, time together, and peace of mind so their loved ones can serve — we thank you just as much.

Your strength, dedication, and selflessness keep our communities safe every single day.

🎄 Merry Christmas to you and your families
🚨 Please stay safe this holiday season
🇺🇸 From our hearts to yours — thank you for all you do

Rustique Designs is open early this week for any last minute shoppers! Make sure to stop by and say hi :)

It's Saturday evening, I’m sick as a dog.
Power went out again at the shop, but as
I sit here at home with one of my boys, I cannot help but feel so incredibly THANKFUL for this past month. Busy is an understatement. We have had our busiest season EVER. Our community has day after day shown up for us. Even on the windiest days in history of history, YOU SHOWED UP 🥹
Your small choice to support local over the big box stores, over Amazon, has such a meaningful impact on so many families. To every one of you who showed up this season - whether in person, a comment, a text, a prayer, or simply by choosing to support small businesses during this Christmas season - thank you. Truly. You may never know how much it matters, but it does so much.

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
For all you last minute shoppers, we have decided to be OPEN on MONDAY + TUESDAY (yes WEDNESDAY too!)🙌. As you head out in search of those last minute gifts, we hope we can be a cozy + merry spot for you to wander, intentionally shop and find those special gifts for your loved ones.
🎅Christmas decor will be 20% off all week
☕️Complimentary snacks + hot coffee will be available

See you next week at the barn!🧡🧡

Happy Thanksgiving, from my family to yours🧡
We have SO much to be thankful this year. Almost a year and a half into our cozy little shop at the barn, close to 60 Alaskan small businesses that have placed their trust in us, and an amazing community that continually shows up. My cup runneth over. I am filled with so much gratitude.

We will be at the alaska_vintage_markets again starting tomorrow. We left last weekend with almost EMPTY WALLS and am working overtime to get a new stock made for this weekend.
We WILL be open at the barn tomorrow- my sweet 72 year old momma will be covering so go say hi (and be patient with her 💗), and Saturday with my husband and son.
