New TC Store Is Open!

Becky Thatcher Designs — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 21:26:20 +0000

After working furiously for the last 6 weeks our new Traverse City store opened last Friday. The store is gorgeous! The old drop ceiling was taken out to reveal the beautiful tin ceiling, the tile floor ripped out and the wood flooring restored, beautiful twig chandeliers have been hung. The antique display case that once was part of De Young's and before that Milliken's is now our "bracelet and watch bar" . We have new paintings by Jean Larson hanging on the walls, these are not just part of our decor, they are also for sale.
When you are shopping downtown or taking in a movie, be sure to stop and see us. We will be serving refreshments on Saturday Dec. 12th.

Becky and Kim have been feverishly working on all the numerous big and small details that go into transforming the old De Young's building in to our new store. It's going to be beautiful!

We are confident that we will be open by our target date which is Friday Nov. 27th. We hope that you can stop by and see us. Meanwhile we are still open at our 541 E. Front Street, next to Mary's Kitchen Port. Our last day there is this Friday Nov. 20th.
