We’ve Been Working Behind the Scenes

If you’ve noticed that we’ve been a little quieter lately, there’s a reason.

We’ve been working.

A lot.

Behind the scenes at Restalgic Atelier, we’ve been restocking the store, developing our new product line, photographing products, updating our collections, preparing inventory, and building a new online experience that finally feels like Restalgic.

Launching a new website may look simple from the outside, but for a small business like ours, there are a lot of moving pieces that have to come together.

And we’re making sure they do.

Building More Than a Website

Our new website is more than just a place to shop.

We wanted to create an online experience that gives you a better understanding of what Restalgic is all about — from our handcrafted natural skincare and apothecary products to our pottery, workshops, handmade goods, plants, and everything else that makes our studio unique.

We’ve been working to make the website feel more like stepping through the doors of our storefront.

Warm. Creative. Intentional. Restalgic.

One of Our Biggest Challenges

One of the biggest struggles we’ve experienced as a growing small business has been keeping our online presence and our physical storefront in sync.

We might have a product available in the store, but it isn't always listed online.

Or something sells online before we have a chance to restock it in the shop.

Sometimes we're creating new products while simultaneously trying to photograph them, package them, label them, add them to the website, and keep the shelves stocked.

And when you're a small team wearing a lot of hats, that's not always easy.

But this new launch gives us an opportunity to change that.

A More Streamlined Restalgic

One of our goals with the new website and product line is to create a much more streamlined experience.

We’re working toward making it easier for you to:

  • Discover our products online
  • Shop our natural skincare and apothecary collection
  • Find our newest products
  • See what's available
  • Learn more about the products we make
  • Explore our workshops and creative experiences
  • And, most importantly, feel connected to what we're creating inside the studio

We want our website to be an extension of our storefront — not something completely separate from it.

And Yes… We’re Restocking.

Our shelves are getting some much-needed attention.

We’re bringing back some of the products you've been asking about while preparing to introduce new products and an updated product line with the website launch.

From our handcrafted lotions and body care to soaps, candles, fragrances, and other apothecary favorites, we're taking the time to make sure everything is thoughtfully prepared before it makes its way to you.

And we're excited about what's coming.

This Is Only The Beginning

There is still plenty happening behind the scenes.

We're learning, rebuilding, creating, organizing, and figuring out how to make Restalgic work better — both for us and for the people who support us.

So if you've been wondering what we've been up to…

This is what we've been up to.

Restocking.

Creating.

Planning.

Building.

And getting ready for the next chapter of Restalgic Atelier.

The new website is coming together, the new product line is taking shape, and we're getting closer to bringing everything together in one place.

We can't wait to show you what's next.

🤎

Handmade. Thoughtful. Intentionally Restalgic.
