Beautiful Live's Story

Your engagement makes life-change possible today and paves the way for future expansion and organizational growth.

In 2016, in the heart of Fayetteville, Arkansas, a powerful founding story began to unfold. Beautiful Lives Thrift Boutique emerged as a holistic mission shaped by love and compelled by faith. Jointly founded by Melody Taylor and New Heights Church Fayetteville, the community quickly embraced the endeavor. As a redemptive and revenue-focused non-profit, the venture quickly grew by pioneering an authentic approach to standing with women navigating challenging circumstances. By providing an elevated shopping experience that reflects God-given dignity and hope through accessible prices, the boutique leans into regular opportunities of giving generously and cultivating human flourishing across the organization.

At present, Beautiful Lives Thrift Boutique is positioned in the Northwest Arkansas community with locations in Bentonville, Fayetteville, and Siloam Springs. BL's mission to lift women and mend community shows through intentional nurturing of complimentary bottom lines held by the organization. Giving generously to partnerships and creating ways to collaborate with the NWA community are primary activities along with stewarding our volunteers and staff team towards a thriving work experience. Beautiful Lives Thrift Boutique is led and operated by a staff of nearly 45 women. We hold the belief that the process of lifting women and mending community begins within ourselves and naturally extends outward. As such, we are committed to becoming transformational people who steward transformation into our community. We believe that we are better together; we thank God for you. Your engagement propels organizational growth and paves the way for future expansion.
