Meet Local Maker OK Collective

Meet Local Maker OK Collective

We met Kelli Newsome in Oklahoma City during an Indie Wholesale Market event. She and her wife Jessi are the two person show that is OK Collective featuring handmade candles, pillows and jewelry. With one waft of their candles, we were sold. We burn these awesome, chemical-free candles in our own homes and have heard rave reviews from many of our customers. We've been wanting to carry candles for a while and are so happy we found these gals and their great products. Please enjoy reading about what inspires and motivates them to be makers. And come get a candle for yourself! With every purchase of a candle at our shop you get a vintage matchbook set!

Also, lucky for us, we got to spend time in this beautiful home with a nice lady who gave us good coffee. Look for a full home tour on the blog soon.

As such, your experience can vary widely while shopping vintage in consignment stores.
