The First friday four of 2024

2024 is here and I’m trying to build the habit of sharing more about what’s happening behind the scenes at Tura Lura Co.

So we are doing a quick run down of four highlights from the week, whether fantastic happenings or just simple a learning opportunity.

Let’s get into it!

First up this week - Tura Lura Co. was featured in Redfin Blog about 17 enchanting scents to embrace the season! Scroll down to #5 to see the scent and a curated collection of 17 winter scents, each transporting us to a realm of festive joy, nostalgic warmth, and the refreshing crispness that defines the season. Whether you are renting an apartment in Burlington, VT, or purchasing a house in Providence, RI, these fragrances recommended by experts who know scents, weave tales of holiday traditions, cozy gatherings, and the unmistakable magic that only winter can bring. How cool is it that I got to share my favorite winter fragrance?

Second - If you missed the news, we shared that we are opening our first storefront in West Branch, Iowa! We will be located in the historic Opera House, in the most beautiful sun filled spot. It’s been thoughtfully restored, and over the next few weeks we get to transform it into a magical spot for creative classes (and more).

Third - I am so grateful for my family and friends. From the support of going after big dreams, to the sweat equity they help me put into this, I would not be here without my crew. We don’t do anything in isolation, I have so many people to thank for helping build Tura Lura Co. over the last two years.

Fourth - In building a storefront, I am excited to offer more artistic opportunities for seasonal workshops. And, I want to hear from you! What kind of creative outlets have you been searching for lately? What has peeked your interest but felt too intimidating to try on your own? What would you want to go to for an afternoon of spring creativity? Send me a note at erika@turaluraco.com.

Cheers to the first weekend of the new year. Sending you love and light.
