Today is our last day at our downtown store. While it's looking rather sparse, having sold a ton of stuff, we still have some wonderful items at great discounts. It's all half-off the lowest marked price. Since I went around and made further mark-downs on a bunch of things, that extra half-off means some of it is 75% to 90% off. We're just givin' it away! Speaking of which, we set up a free box and keep throwing things in it – including more upholstery fabric samples that we just unearthed. I may add a bunch to it today.
We still have jewelry, cards, wallets and small leather goods, dinnerware (Corricoware from Portugal is all on clearance sale), bedding (including a few Bella Notte pieces!), a bit of holiday (ridiculously low prices), and bits and pieces. There's a stack of bridal shower invites – very pretty letterpress cards – that we must have loved, because we ordered a lot of them. They're something like 75% off... good time to stock up if your BFF is getting married. We might make some crazypants good deals if you take a bunch of things...
We will miss downtown. We'll miss our neighbors, our friendly and helpful mail carriers and delivery guys, our chai and latté fixes at Bellatazza... all of it. But customers and friends: we'll see you all at our original farmhouse location on River Mall Avenue, right? Right! We're going to redo things a bit there, bring in some new lines (and some favorite classics), do a little flipping and fixing and rethinking. We'll have time to work on and bring in little vintage finds and unusual pieces, and continue with our events and special parties. Maybe we'll do some classes or seminars there (all suggestions welcome). We're looking forward to focusing our energies on just the one shop, and it's going to be great.
Meanwhile, come visit us today – our last! – at Pomegranate Downtown and scoop up some great deals. We'll be closed at both stores tomorrow while we do our final move and clean up, and closed on Sunday, because wild horses will not drag us from our sofa positions (Robert watching the Superbowl; I'll have my face in a book).
