Help Him&Her Vintage, small family owned AP Biz!

Hello. This is Curtis with The Scent Queens Candle Company on Montrose. And the moment we opened up our doors we had the pleasure of getting to know this amazing business and the family behind it all. They quickly became our best friends and creative cohorts, not to mention how we support each other's business in all the ways that we can. So right now they ran into a situation that is leaving them to vacate and move their entire business and operation to a new location on top of being parents, and being a small business. We don't want them to ever ever feel like their business doesn't matter and have to make difficult decisions on what they can and can't do because of not operating their business at the moment and have to make sacrifices to stay in business as they make a big move and have to get their new space ready to operate. So we created this for our new best friends as we want to show them that Albany Park cares!!!! Albany Park Small Businesses help each other and we help those in need, even if they ask for it or not. They had no idea we were doing this for them so it's just super important as they are super special to us. We want to make their transition from their special space to their new space as easy as possible. Please help this amazing small, Latina and family owned business in Albany Park stay strong and and just stay... We need them. And selfishly we need them too (love these guys so much).

Here's a word from Myriam (owner):

"This 12-year journey as a Certified Wedding Planner, turns Designer, turns Small Business Owner has really been something! While at times my insecurities made me doubt my capabilities; I never doubted my support system. I will never forget the growth the last 2 years as a brick and mortar have been not only for me, but my family, and my fellow creative community. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we must close our current doors. BUT we are opening new ones! Our new location will be even more cheeky, spacious, with easier accessibility, and conveniently located near public transportation: And it’s pretty freaking adorable!! We know this move will help us provide even better services and experiences to you all!"

NOW LET'S SHOW THEM JUST HOW MUCH ALBANY PARK LOVES THEM AND SUPPORTS THEM AND HOW MUCH WE WANT THEM TO STAY HERE.
