Cindy over at Haley's Cottage has just let the cat out of the bag:
She's opening a second Haley's Cottage store!
Check out her recent
blog post for more info.
Her new digs will be smack-dab in the center of Kirkland on the tony Eastside. {East side of Lake Washington, for those not in the Seattle area} Surounded by chic boutiques, galleries, swanky nightspots and fabulous restaurants, this town is a perfect location for her marvelous shop filled with beautiful and stylish art, decor, fashion, and gifts.
We are contributing some of our furnishings to her new shop, so you'll be able to find Retreat products every day, at Haley's Cottage in Mill Creek AND in the charming town of Kirkland. We'll share more as things develop!
We stopped in to visit with Cindy at
haley's cottage last week...
and oh, my , folks, you really should get in there and see how lovely the shoppe is! Her post-Holiday / winter-into-spring decor & displays will just perk you right up and inspire you to freshen up your homes.
We loved seeing one of our unique lampshades 'worn' by a mannequin - was this a New Years' Eve party hat, perhaps?! It's whimsical and imaginative touches like this that add to the wonderful atmosphere of Cindy's shoppe. So easy to do this in your homes, as well... even the smallest changes can bring a big impact and a smile to your face every day. That's what decorating is supposed to be all about - making you happy in your rooms.
We are so blessed that Cindy has found our products to be complimentary to her style! {And while we were there, 'a little birdie' told us about some exciting news coming soon from haley's cottage, so stay tuned here for an update when it breaks!}
Cindy at
Haley's Cottage has been a
very busy gal, getting her darling shop ready for Saturday's Holiday Open House... she's added a bunch of sparkle and bling everywhere in the shop, including on our Swanky Piano Bar! Can't you just
see her as the star of a White Christmas Holiday party, serving up white cosmos and gin tonics? I love that snowflake backdrop, too. Cindy is also carrying several of our lamps in her shop, all with one of a kind lampshades we've created.
On Saturday, while Cindy and a bevy of artisans who provide their wares for the shop are gathered to enjoy visiting with customers and toasting the season, we'll be in a cold hangar in Seattle setting up our booth for the
Sand Point Antique & Design Show on Sunday.
So, we hope you will plan to visit Haley's Cottage in Mill Creek on Saturday, and Sand Point in the University District on Sunday. Just tell 'em Retreat sent you!
