Bellacara Celebrates its 20th Anniversary!

I can scarcely believe it was 20 years ago that Bellacara opened its doors. I certainly could never have imagined that I would still be here today. I definitely never imagined the treasured friendships that I would develop with my fellow boutique owners and customers. I am still profoundly shocked every time a lovely young lady asks me to ring her up under her mom’s account, only to realize that I first met her when she was no more than two or three years old.Over the years, you have become more than just customers. You have become friends. I wonder about you when I haven’t seen you in a while. I ask my staff how you were if I missed your visit. I enjoy chatting with you when you stop in and admittedly probably keep you talking longer than you planned. I have employed some of your children who are now adults and I feel immense joy when you tell me of their accomplishments. I’ve been there with you through happy times like marriages, births, and college announcements and I’ve been there with you through divorces and illnesses too. Because of all of you, this store means the world to me.I hope you will come celebrate Bellacara’s anniversary with me. I’m really looking forward to thanking all of you for the past twenty amazing years.
