Jan was kind enough to join us for the Costumer’s Bazaar, so we’re headed her way to give her a hand. Her collection is extensive and she enjoys identifying each piece as well as seeing that it goes to a good home. If you’d like to see a few of the great pieces she offers, we have a few listed in our shop, here on the Malvena Pearl Etsy page.
