Starting a New
Business in the
Middle of a Pandemic

Taking a leap of faith and being moved by a dream,
three friends opened up a Home Décor Boutique
and Pantry called Finch + Fern
Rekindled Home in the middle
of a global pandemic, located at
728 Penn Avenue, West Reading.
" We loved the
space and just
knew it was meant
to be. " says Louise
Pena-Candelaria, a
Realtor and Artist
who resides in
Wyomissing. " The
windows and
the parquet floor
are what wowed
me. All it needed
was some paint
and cleaning
up, " says Kristan
Milner-Callan, an
Art Degree Major
who specializes in
revitalizing vintage furniture and visual displays. " We
wanted to be our own boss and we just ran with it.
Location is everything, " says Mechelle Bush, General
Manager at Encrypted Escape in West Reading, and
third partner and Artist at Finch + Fern. The three
women took their strengths and together created
a very hip and energetic space filled with plants,
repurposed furniture, handmade jewelry, pantry
items, unique gifts and home décor. Finch + Fern
channels a modern bohemian vibe, perfectly blending
the old with the new. If you happen to be in West
Reading make sure to stop in to see for yourself!
