they say many of their home furnishings tell a story -- either in its design or that of the designer. It's a story that will continue in the homes of those who buy Urban Cottage furnishings, accents and gifts.
Customers will find that with each visit they’ll discover something new and some surprises, says says Jessica Davis, who is the brains behind the store.
Davis was born and raised in West Michigan and a big fan of Downtown Kalamazoo. She says it was important to her the store be located in the downtown district because she feels that the energy of the area reflects the artistic style of their store.
The store will feature a multitude of cool, furniture and gifts for the home--from vintage chairs and dressers to funky glassware and lamps.
What is one of those stories the items sold tell? "We just made a trip to Mexico where we met a young lady and her mother, and we brought back some beautiful linens. We’ll also be showcasing products made by artists a little closer to home," Davis says.
In addition to home furnishings and unique accents, Urban Cottage will also be offering staging and decorating services along with regular in-store events that feature themed design tips and specials throughout the store.
Urban Cottage opens Tuesday, Sept. 3 at 166 Kalamazoo Mall. Its hours will be 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Friday; and noon-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
