Shoppes at Homespun

Silver Anniversary Celebration at Shoppes at Homespun

You have a special invitation to come and help celebrate the Silver (25th) Anniversary of The Shoppes at Homespun – Primitives Antiques and Gifts & Home Decor on June 23-25. They are located at 11523 Kingston Pike in the Farragut area of Knoxville. Owners Beverly and Will Sellars, along with all their booth owners, are very excited to be celebrating the 25th Anniversary of this antique and gift mall.

Beverly and Will took the already established mall over in 2009, and it has continued to grow in leaps and bounds. They, along with their very dedicated and committed booth owners, all share the interest in making and keeping this antiques, primitives, gifts and home décor mall one of the best in all of Knoxville. When you visit, I think you’ll agree that they have exceeded their expectations.

On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 23-25, there will be vendors set up outside with tents and tables in front of the store, all with great sales just like inside this great mall. You’ll find some amazing sales and deals that will have you putting them at the top of your list for shopping regularly. Their mall has 9,000 square feet of vendor booths full of beautiful quality antiques, primitives, furniture, vintage, painted (lots with chalk paint by Amy Howard which is sold in store) repurposed, country décor, signage, vintage and custom made jewelry, boutiques with beautiful vintage retro chic clothing, and even a booth with charming children’s clothing and Padgett wear. You’ll enjoy booths with the new Farmhouse look, fine handcrafted items and floral booths, gardening and pottery booths, framed art and gifts, and booths with barnwood made tables, baskets and old windows.

It’s Father Day just before their anniversary celebration, so tell dad that he can enjoy shopping with you at Shoppes at Homespun Anniversary Sale. The mall includes booths that always interest the men in the group. He’ll enjoy visiting the Civil War memorabilia section or if he loves horses, maybe the booth of gently used quality equestrian and collectibles. There’s lots of farm tools and old tools, and even a booth with animal pelts and hats that are rare finds.

Just be sure to attend and shop and put your name in for the door prize drawings. Everything will be discounted 10-50% throughout the mall unless prices show firm.

We want to wish Beverly and Will Sellars, along with the vendors a very Happy Anniversary and we hope you will too. Be sure to tell them you got your invite in the Busy Bee Trader.
