Today we closed a little early — and we want to address it openly.
Today is my husband’s birthday. He is not only my partner in life, but also the co-owner of Neatos Elements. Like many small business owners, we regularly work 10–12 hour days and pour a tremendous amount of time, energy, and heart into both our shop and this community.
This afternoon we made a last-minute decision to sneak away and celebrate his birthday together. We did leave a note on the door, but we did not make a Facebook announcement beforehand.
Running a small, family-owned business sometimes means life happens. Occasionally that means we may close early or unexpectedly. While we always try to communicate when possible, there may be times when things happen last minute.
We appreciate everyone’s understanding and continued support of our little shop. It truly means the world to us.
We will be back open tomorrow from 10 AM – 6 PM and look forward to seeing you then.
Thank you for supporting small businesses — and for allowing us the occasional moment to celebrate life, too. 💛
