I can't believe how quickly this semester is flying by...the fact that we just celebrated Thanksgiving and Winter Break is just around the corner seems crazy to me! I definitely missed Robert Roe while I was home, however I took the time off to gather some new ideas for the store! With Christmas coming up, I thought that some smaller more 'gift' geared items would be a great addition to the store. So I spent my break looking through various new candle designers, scarves, mittens, etc. I swear I don't know how my boss was able to find such perfect inventory for the store because it is such a process to find something that fits just right! However it is such a cool aspect of working and interning at Robert Roe - I love feeling like I could find the next best seller for us! So far, the search continues. I want to find a candle that is a great, clean smell however with a price point and packaging that would attract women throughout the community for the holidays.
Speaking of Christas...Naseem and I are starting to decorate the store! Since our colors are black & brown I knew right away that I would want to decorate our small tree in ornaments ranging from those colors. We luckily had the same vision of wanting to keep the tree classic yet fun. So far so good! And in the spirit of giving, my lovely boss decided that we as Robert Roe should host a toy drive or canned food drive out of our store front. We thought it would be such a cool way to get involved and give back to the community while getting into the Christmas spirit! We are currently looking into local organizations that would like our time and space! We can't wait to get involved and really try to make a difference!
I hope everyone had a lovely and safe Thanksgiving break!
