From the moment you step inside, you’re surrounded by thoughtfully curated items that feel like they were chosen just for you, from stylish clothing to cozy candles that instantly make a house feel like home.

The Feral Bohemian
The Feral Bohemian isn’t just about jewelry—it’s about storytelling through art. Jalinda Sallee, the creative force behind the brand, finds inspiration in the most unexpected places. “During my training in Albuquerque, I was tasked with designing handcuffs,” she recalls with a playful grin. “Naturally, I added hearts. Why not transform something so rigid into a symbol of connection?” This whimsical perspective carries into all of her work. A single painted cow on a vintage music sheet sparked an entire series of pet portraits, now cherished by many. Her art is a small rebellion against the ordinary, proving that even the most everyday objects can become something extraordinary.
