The store
Four years ago, owner Maggie Calhoun, and her husband,
Birge Calhoun, embarked on the restoration of an old mill house located on Upper Main Street in Valatie, NY so that she could open her new housewares store. This beautifully renovated building now features a wonderful mix of eclectic products for the home on two floors--it's like shopping in a house.
Calhoun decided to open a housewares store because she, "Loves decor, seasonal changes, color and textiles." Combine that with her mission to, "Inspire, support and encourage customers; to give them a comfortable and welcoming environment to explore their options," and you've found a great place to visit, experience and shop! And, as she goes on 6-8 "buying" trips throughout the year, there is always something new for her customers to consider, and in some cases, be amused by. Her offerings of kitchen towels and paper cocktail napkins boast some very humorous one-liners and make great hostess gifts. If you don't see what you're looking for, just ask! Maggie places special orders, especially for rugs.
