Hey everyone! I just wanted to clear up a little c Hey everyone! I just wanted to clear up a little confusion about our big announcement last week… After almost twelve years, we decided to close our retail operations and website. Although this is a bittersweet change, the good news is: you will still be able to find L&V products moving forward through our incredible licensing partners!!! Over the course of my career, I’ve had the absolute privilege of working with some amazing manufacturers to produce my art on an array of items (like these planners and calendars, which I am so proud of.) I’m excited to continue these partnerships, bringing beautiful products for you to enjoy! They will available through retail partners and stores that you love- we will just no longer be shipping direct via our own retail channels. Thank you for your wonderful support this holiday season! Just a reminder everything is 25% off while we say goodbye to the shop.
Our weekend sale continues today for Cyber Monday! Our weekend sale continues today for Cyber Monday! But this isn't just any sale… This is the LAST CHANCE TO PURCHASE Lily & Val prints and canvas as we will be saying goodbye to the retail division of our business at the end of the year. Everything is now 25% off using the code FAREWELL Although things are changing, you will still be able to purchase Lily & Val licensed products at retailers that you love. It's not goodbye for good, just the closing of a chapter. Thank you for helping us send off the shop! I appreciate each and every order and your support over the last eleven years.

Thanksgiving Day seemed like the perfect time to t Thanksgiving Day seemed like the perfect time to tell you the news I'm about to share with you because my heart is filled with the utmost gratitude and appreciation. For the last almost 12 years I've had the privilege of creating products and shipping them all around the world. Lily & Val started as a hobby on Etsy. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine where that ride would take me! I've learned SO MUCH along the way, met the most incredible people, and supported my family for over a decade. Grateful really doesn't begin to describe it. It will always be a part of me and my story. But as many of you have already noticed, my attention has shifted elsewhere. I've felt a strong pull and calling into new directions in my career, which I've followed with curiosity and an openness to possibility. As I've shifted my focus, there have been many instances where my heart sunk in uncertainty for what the future would hold for this company that I've built, that I've held so dear for so long. I often felt torn finding myself holding on to the familiar but at the same time feeling the nudge to move forward, to change. Over the past year, the voice inside and nudge has become impossibly loud. Although it's hard to say goodbye (oh how I dislike goodbyes) I know it's time. Typing these words feels surreal, but this holiday season will be our last. We will be ceasing retail operations in January 2024. I say this with bittersweetness. I'm sad for the closing of a chapter, but yet, where I'm going feels exhilarating (more on that another time.) It is not all sad news though! I'm beyond thrilled to tell you about an exciting partnership to continue the Lily & Val legacy. (More in comments)
