This is a post that is directed to all the local customers we have out there... I have a question and need help with the answer!
After blogging and letting people know we are planning on closing down our shop in Bethesda, I have had an unbelievable amount of feedback via my website, my blog , emails and people walking in. I am really touched at how many of you really care about Accessories of Old and how I ( and of course my goods) have made such an impact in so many people.
I was approached the other day by Maria - the owner of TIARA DAY who had read my blog about closing down. She herself had a shop in Kensington and has moved to Frederick. She told me there was a shop front right next to her on the main street and I have to come and see it!! ...
So, off I went and drove to Frederick.
Boy! Was I blown away by what I saw!! I had not been to Frederick in years and was more than pleasantly suprised at how arty, stylish, unique and busy the area is. I went to see where TIARA DAY is opening ( which is going to be fabulous just by the way) and there next door was a wonderful shopfront empty and waiting to be filled.
The space is bigger than I have now and has beautiful high pressed iron ceilings... but needs A LOT of work. .. saying that with a fresh coat of paint and old railings filled with vintage wears I believe it could be really beautiful.
Why do I need your help?? you must be wondering...
.. well what I need to know from all the locals is "Would you come to Frederick to shop at Accessories of Old if we moved ??" and what do you think?
I would love your feedback as its really important to me... seeing as though its due to all the unhappy faces I have seen since telling everyone we are closing that has made me think of carrying on!!...so please ladies take a moment and help me out here...
Thanks Lisa x
