My friend Cindy has been a trailblazer in the circles that I travel. She is one of those entrepreneurial women who had a vision and a belief in her abilities. She inspires with those abilities by showing us how to bring beauty to our surroundings with sophisticated, timeless furnishings. She started Haley's Cottage with a strong belief that the dream to open her own shop was a way to express the creative soul within. And even after 15 years she has managed to remain relevent in the ever evolving world of interior boutiques. I don't think I need to tell you that it hasn't been easy. The last couple years have proven to be among the most challenging for those who have the dream to follow. And this my friends, I know a thing or two about. But she continues to rise above and to do so with amazing grace. I am thrilled that Cindy is still going strong. And even more thrilled that she has been gracious enough to allow me to bring a little of what Gatherings was about to the mix.
But the real news is that Cindy has found a beautiful new location! Downtown Kirkland just seemed like the perfect place for her. And Kirkland seems pretty excited to have her there!
Please join us on Friday March 26th from 6pm-9pm for her grand opening.
We'll both be there along with local artist Kris Watkins and her beautiful French inspired decor. It will be a wonderful evening of fun surrounded by stunning interiors along with some pretty amazing and inspiring people! Hope you can make it!!
congratulations!!! it's going to be wildly successful.
ReplyDeletei'm sorry i've been out of touch. did you know that i'm closing the store-front? it never stopped snowing! ;)
*but* -- because i'm stubborn and strangely addicted to bedding, i'm going to be offering in-home bedding consultations. by appointment only -- i'll bring all the look books, catalogs, etc. to the client's home. sort of like pillow mint delivery!
