Locally-owned businesses often provide services and inspire us in some way each day. This holiday season and throughout 2019, I encourage you to reset and support locally-owned businesses throughout KC and beyond. As Publisher of VintageKC magazine , I’m blown away by the talented souls I have the honor of meeting each day. The Kansas City region is a bustling community of individuals pushing forward to fulfill their dreams and passions. One lady has earned merit through her determination to succeed at what makes her happy – making shoes.
this season, whether you take in a movie (pg. 32) and just live in the moment or start a tradition this holiday season (pg. 48) to be passed on through generations, whatever you choose, it’s sure to instill pleasant memories in the coming weeks, months or years. From the VintageKC family to yours, may you be blessed with all of life’s best offerings this holiday season and throughout the New Year.
