A local sister pair are excited to share their passion for family, faith, fashion and gift-giving at Peachtree Boutique’s new location that opened this fall at 136 W. Columbus Ave., and are looking forward to providing area residents with a personalized shopping experience to help them find the perfect Christmas gifts for everyone on their list.
About 4 1/2 years ago, Hayley Palmer and Alysia Kuba first opened Peachtree Boutique at its former location across the street at 127 and 129 W. Columbus Ave.
They have now have seized the opportunity to move into the new space, putting their own personalized touches to create the elegant and upscale surroundings, featuring a black and white awning outside at the storefront, and a light and airy interior with high ceilings decorated with chandeliers.
“It was a labor of love working to get this building ready,” Palmer said Thursday. “I laid the flooring myself and spent so much time here this summer.
“It really was a lot of fun to make this store just how we wanted it and to put our vision and creative spin on things. We can’t wait for the community to stop in so we can show them our new place.
“We offer a very intentional customer service experience — making sure they’re loved, seen and served.”
Palmer related that following Thanksgiving, the store will offer extended hours for the Christmas shopping season. At that time, Peachtree will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p..m. Monday through Saturday, and from noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.
The boutique carries fine lines of unique apparel for women, men and children, and accessories and gift items for all ages “that you can’t find anywhere else, not online or on Amazon,” Palmer said.
“For most of the pieces, there is a story behind the maker and personal connections that we’ve made, from makers in Florida to Massachusetts and Las Vegas. We are constantly switching up our inventory to keep it interesting and fun for our customers to come in.”
Currently at the front of the store, guests are greeted with decorated Christmas trees and nutcrackers for a holiday display, with many of the festive items for sale. A variety of home decor and kitchen items also are featured.
Fine jewelry, handbags and other accessories are displayed in cases as customers make their way through Peachtree. Specialty baby keepsakes and gifts and infant clothing also have their own special section.
Fashion-forward men, women and children’s clothing also are displayed on racks toward the rear of the store.
A wide variety of devotional books and journals also are offered, along with specialty greeting cards.
Palmer also related that gift baskets can be customized by request and then “beautifully wrapped so that the recipient feels very special.”
Employees are wearing masks at the store and offer frequent cleanings to ensure a safe shopping experience.
“We are here to serve our community and do whatever we can to make your holidays safe, fun and absolutely memorable,” the sisters said via their Facebook page.
