Home Decor Store Opens on Eagle Street
North Adams – There’s one word patrons to the new A & M Home Decor have been using since the store had its soft opening a week ago.
“I keep hearing the word ‘unique,’ which is exactly what I’m looking for,” said owner and operator Alan Richards at the Eagle Street store on Thursday.
“The style is pretty diverse and that’s the way I want to keep it. I don’t want to get stuck on one theme,” Richards added.
A & M, whose grand opening was scheduled this weekend, hopes to be a destination store for locals who are looking to find that truly perfect gift. Offering everything from special occasion porcelain dolls and silver jewelry to patriotic home decorations and garden plaques, the store wants to attract a new kind of shopper.
“Part of the reason I opened a new business was that you can’t go anywhere and get this kind of stuff unless you go to Wal-Mart. And a lot of the stuff I have you can’t get even there,” Richards said. “I just wanted to have a place where people could go and get quality items for a fair and reasonable price.”
