☀️ The sunshine is winning today!

I’m going to close the shop a little early so I can head home and put the finishing touches on my business plan for my Cornerstone Alliance business class. It’s due in just a couple of days, and I want to give it the attention it deserves.

Thank you for supporting this little collective and believing in what we’re building together. Every step forward brings us closer to some really exciting things, and I can’t wait to share what’s next.

Go enjoy this beautiful Michigan day, and I’ll see you soon!

Fourth of July weekend is quickly approaching. This year there are several things that will be happening down at the beach and at Lions Park. Please plan accordingly if you are choosing to head to the beach or boat ramp during the weekend.
First off, on July 3rd in Lions Park we have the Red, White and BBQ Country Music Festival, along with the fireworks on the beach. On July 4th, we have Oh Yeah music festival in Lions Park. Please be advised that during both festivals the park is off limits to setting up tents or reserving space.
During this weekend we are expecting record crowds. Parking at beach and in the beach overflow lot will fill very quickly, so please plan accordingly. During this weekend, there will be a shuttle service running from Oselka Park to downtown and the beach. If both lots are full, please feel free to use Oselka Park. The boat ramp will also fill very quickly, and space is limited, please feel free to call ahead and see if space is available. The boat ramp number is 296-469-1522.

✨ Welcome to the Collective, Ancient Tree Studio! ✨

We are excited to welcome Ancient Tree Studio and, Lin Karrels, the designer/artist to It’s Between Friends!

These stunning, one-of-a-kind pendants are handcrafted by combining kiln-fired glass with forged copper and silver, creating wearable works of art that are as unique as the people who wear them. No molds. No mass production. Just beautiful craftsmanship, color, texture, and creativity captured in every piece.

From shimmering blues and iridescent rainbows to delicate dragonflies and organic designs, each pendant tells its own story and catches the light in a way that photographs simply can’t capture.

💎 One-of-a-kind creations
🔥 Kiln-fired glass
⚒️ Forged copper and silver
🎁 Complimentary cord included with every pendant

If you’re looking for jewelry that’s artistic, meaningful, and unlike anything you’ll find anywhere else, you’ll want to stop in and see these beauties for yourself.

💍✨ Can we all agree that every house needs a trinket dish? In-fact, you need multiples!!

Not because they’re cute… although they absolutely are.

Not because they look adorable on your kitchen counter, bathroom vanity, or bedside table… although they do that too.

But because at some point, every one of us has taken off a ring “for just a second” and then spent the next ten minutes wondering where it went.

These little dishes are the designated parking spots for your jewelry. No more balancing rings on the edge of the sink. No more setting earrings “somewhere safe.” No more surprise treasure hunts.

And this sweet little donkey? He’s ready to guard your valuables with his life. 🫏💕

Practical. Adorable. Necessary.

Come find your perfect trinket dish at It’s Between Friends and give your jewelry a home of its own.

☔️ Well y’all, it may be the fourth day of summer, but Mother Nature seems to have misplaced the sunshine.

If the beach towel is staying in the trunk today, I’ve got a better idea.

Start your day at It’s Between Friends in Bridgman, where you can shop women’s consignment, discover local makers, artists, and artisans, and find everything from gifts and home décor to that perfect outfit you didn’t know you needed.

Then make the short drive to Thistledown & Row in Buchanan for dinner. Never been to Buchanan? Today’s the day. It’s a charming little town with some of the best food in Berrien County waiting for you at the table.

Turn a rainy day into a Southwest Michigan adventure. Shop local. Eat local. Explore somewhere new.

☀️ Well hello, summer in Bridgman!

What a day yesterday was! From our consignors and shoppers to our art lovers and gift seekers, you showed up and supported more than 22 consignors, makers, creators, and artisans today alone.

It was a record sales day for this little collective. I barely had time to step away, and that’s a wonderful problem to have.

Thank you for supporting local, shopping small, and believing in what we’re building together.

👏 This success belongs to all of us.
