A Reintroduction

Hej 👋

I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported our small business and creative community at BON TON GOODS.

A brief reintroduction: My name is Mikkel (pronounced in many ways), and I am the proprietor and co-founder of BON TON GOODS, along with my husband.

I’m incredibly grateful for all the amazing people and places I’ve had the privilege to live, study, work, and explore.

My grandmothers often said that curiosity was my nickname, and that has always been a core part of my life. It has guided me down many paths and opened doors to countless experiences.

BON TON loosely translates to “Good Things, Good People, and Good Times,” and that is what I hope to reflect through my shop, my products, and the images I share.

Some other values my grandmothers instilled in me were kindness, courtesy, respect, and culture—values that are deeply important to me and to our small business.

I hope to see you soon at the shop!
