Steadfast Supply | 🛍Gift Shop🛍

We were featured on the TODAY Show this morning! It was an incredible experience sharing our curated products, our mission, the small businesses we carry, the workshops we host, and the launch of our new online shop. For anyone discovering us today, welcome! Steadfast Supply is a small, independent shop in Washington, DC, built around community, creativity, and the work of over one hundred makers and small brands. Every corner of our shop is curated with intention, and our new gift boxes are designed to make gifting easier, more meaningful, and more personal. You can explore all of our offerings in-store here in Washington, DC. The items we shared on-air can be found in the shop, and our newly launched curated gift boxes are available online through the link in our bio, including a dedicated collection for TODAY viewers. Thank you for being here and for choosing to shop small. Much love to @todayshow team for being so supportive and kind! Love you Melea - you are amazing!

This space started as a dream — to build something that brings people together through creativity, love, and community. Steadfast Supply is more than a gift shop to me. It’s a reflection of everything I care about — supporting small businesses, creating joyful moments, and making sure everyone who walks in feels seen and welcomed. It’s not always easy. There are long nights and stressful days, but every connection, every small moment of joy, reminds me why I keep going. Here’s a look into my story — Part 1. Thanks for being part of it. With love & light, Virginia. #MyStory #SteadfastSupply #ShopSmall #DCsmallbusiness #WomenInBusiness #CommunityMatters #CreativeEntrepreneur #SupportLocal #SmallBusinessLove #madewithheart

Print was far from dead at our Long Live Mags Pop-up in DC this past weekend. Pages were flipped, collages were made, and new friendships were forged. Special thanks to Chas Wagner (@Paper_dirt ) for keeping indy mags alive, @CarlaFrankStudio , The Living Room (@livingroom.dc ) who showed us how to they use collage workshops to build community in their new space in Mount Pleasant, and the good folks at Steadfast Supply (@steadfastsupply ) for hosting us at their wonderful gift shop. We had a wonderful day, and DC was in in full bloom. Thank you to everyone who came through including some four legged friends, and the very talented students from Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). 📷: @taylormonetphoto
