Our Story
From the beginning...
When ShopWithSkyStore was established, we had no experience selling merchandise and no roadmap for building a successful online store or any business at all for that matter. What we did have was curiosity, determination, and a shared love of finding exciting toys.​​​
​​
Our first sale came just as the 2025 holiday season was beginning in, selling out within the first 24 hours, with Gabby’s Dollhouse and Danny Go! toys becoming some of our earliest customer favorites.
​
That was the moment we realized we had found something special. Other parents, gift-givers, and collectors were searching for the same exciting and harder-to-find products we loved discovering. It very easily became a passion and purpose of ours to make these gifts available world-wide.
​
We have been moving full speed ahead ever since—learning, growing, and building ShopWithSkyStore one carefully packed order at a time.​ A simple idea: to create a family-owned place where finding toys, collectibles, and meaningful gifts feels exciting, personal, and easy was the beginning of ShopWithSkyStore.
​
Inspired by our daughter, Skylar, we proudly built the store around the happiness a special toy can bring—whether it becomes part of a childhood memory, completes a collection, celebrates an important moment, or simply makes someone smile.
Meet Skylar
The Little Imagination Behind Our Name
Our daughter Skylar was just three years old and already filled with huge imagination, when ShopWithSkyStore was established in her honor.
​​
Driven by her love for pretend play—especially playing store, dolls, and dressing up—she used her ability to find creative possibilities in the simplest things. Her love of art gave her another way to express her ideas and bring the colorful world in her imagination to life, allowing us to incorporate pieces of her creations into our product.
​
Watching Skylar explore, create, and turn everyday moments into something magical inspired the heart and creativity behind ShopWithSkyStore. We wanted to build a store that captures that same feeling of discovery and gives children, families, and collectors something new to enjoy.
​
Today, Skylar remains the inspiration behind our name and the joy behind our mission. Her creativity reminds us that toys are more than things—they can inspire stories, encourage imagination, and become part of memories that last forever.

Taking a Risk
In the thick of Christmas season 2025, Skylar and I found a few limited-edition and newly released toys—the same kinds of products I had struggled to find as a shopper. With very little confidence they'd even get traction, we decided to take a chance and list them for sale.
