Wendy Kops can no longer store her stock of dream catchers, amber cubes, pillows and bracelets in her home in Seghwaert. That is why it was time for a new space where she can store her collection of Balinese, Moroccan and Ibizan gadgets, and where you can browse around.

Wendy van Queen Beads started a web shop and then decided to start selling her stuff at markets. Now it’s time for expansion: in the week of May 8, she will open her showroom on the Eerste Stationsstraat where you can shop by appointment.

Window shopping in Seghwaert

And that showroom was first only in her own home. At the front of her house, she made a window display with dream catchers near a window. “In the evening a lamp shines on it, which lights up the shop window, such a nice sight!” In the window display, customers can see and order her collection via the QR code pasted on the window.

In daily life, Wendy works in the juvenile detention center in Alphen aan den Rijn. A while ago she started her own webshop as a hobby. There she sells homemade jewelry, Balinese dream catchers and wood carvings. “Things that make me very happy.”

Moonlight fair Zoetermeer

For more brand awareness, Wendy decided to sell her stuff at fairs. “During the week I work full time, at the weekends I stand in my booth in places like Haarlem and Zeist, in Zeeland and during the moonlight fair in Zoetermeer.”

Her collection has expanded over time: “I bought a laser to engrave drinks boards. I make leather collars for dogs and I would like to make bags. So a lot of plans, but I don’t have the time,” she says with a laugh. And that includes the showroom in an office space near Zoetermeer Oost station. “I can’t lose my stuff anymore. My car is completely full and my house is overflowing. Now I can display everything beautifully, on the market and in my new store.”
