Fund to Support Florida Vendors Re-Emerging from Covid

 As you know I coordinate the Lincoln Road Antiques and Collectibles Market on Lincoln Road, Miami Beach. We are back to the road on October 4th and are looking forward to creating a safe outdoor market in the face of corona. Some of our dealers have suffered greatly these past months and we would like to 

offer them support. HERE

Ella & Jaeden of St. Pete

MaskUP St. Pete is an inspired collection of gender neutral face mask, designed and produced in St. Petersburg, Florida.

The line was born during the Covid-19 quarantine while Ella & Jaeden were quarantined and watching the pandemics chaos unfold. With so little known about Covid-19, you could observe debate everywhere concerning wearing mask and the following panic over the lack of availability of mask. 

Looking for a solution this brand has since become Ella & Jaeden's passion project and primary focus.
