Farewell to Erstwhile
If you found this page, maybe you were searching for something.
Maybe it was crystals. Maybe coffee. Maybe a place that felt a little softer, stranger, warmer, or more magical than the rest of the world. Maybe you were just looking for a reminder that there are still people out there who believe in creating beauty, connection, and meaning. And somehow, your path crossed ours.
After 8 years since first registering Erstwhile Studios, LLC., and nearly 6 years of our physical shop being open, Erstwhile is coming to an end. Our official final day of operations will be July 25th, 2026, on our 6 year shop anniversary.
​
This business changed my life.
To every single person who supported me, walked through our doors, shared a post, bought a drink, attended an event, trusted me with your stories, cried with me, laughed with me, or simply existed alongside me for a little while... thank you.
For most of my life, I felt invisible. I never really felt important. I never felt like I fully belonged anywhere. But this community allowed me to be fully myself and somehow be loved for it anyway. That is something I will carry with me forever. I met some of the most incredible souls through Erstwhile. People who reminded me that magic is real, even if it doesn't always look the way we expect it to.
​
This chapter has simply run its course. And while I don't fully know where my path leads next, I know I am still walking it.
Maybe there will still be crystals.
Maybe coffee.
Maybe spiritual work.
Maybe something entirely different.
Whatever comes next, I hope it still carries the same heart.
