Thank you for five years!

Dear BFFs (bon femmes friends hehe),

As I sit down to write this, I find myself filled with gratitude and a touch of disbelief. Five years ago, on May 16th, 2019, I took a leap of faith and hit the publish button on the Bon Femmes website. It feels like just yesterday and yet, here we are, celebrating half a decade of beautiful moments, challenges overcome, and dreams realized.

When I started Bon Femmes, I had a vision, a dream that whispered in the quiet moments of uncertainty. I didn't know what to expect, but deep down, I hoped for the best. The journey wasn't easy; it took six months before the first non-family or friend sale came through. I still remember that day vividly, the rush of excitement as I packed that order with extra goodies, so excited at the realization that this dream was indeed possible.

Since then, there have been many ups and downs, mistakes made and lessons learned. One of the biggest lessons? Sometimes, you just have to let go and adapt. No matter how meticulously we plan, life has its own plans, and resilience lies in embracing change and finding plan Bs.

But amidst the chaos and challenges, there's been one constant source of joy and motivation — you, my incredible customers. To those who took a chance on me early on, thank you for believing in Bon Femmes. To my repeat customers, your loyalty means the world to me. And to those who have shared the Bon Femmes story with friends and family, your support fuels me.

As I mark this milestone, I invite you all to join me in celebrating Bon Femmes' fifth birthday on Saturday, May 25th. It will be a day filled with cuteness, treats from Chunky's Treats, free gifts with purchase, and complimentary nail art by Legendary Spa for in-store customers. And, of course, there will be plenty of snacks and beverages to enjoy.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being part of this incredible journey. Here's to the next phase, filled with new adventures, growth, and continued connections with each and every one of you.

With love and gratitude,

Omotola
