→ Haven can’t wait: The Woodland store Haven a Boutique is adding a new sister store downtown. Feliz by Haven will have its grand opening from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 29, at 535 Main St. The two stores are a block apart, on opposite sides of the street.
Haven a Boutique is a women’s clothing store at 610 Main St. Its men’s clothing section, along with home décor and skincare items, will move to Feliz. It’s a narrower store with 1,600 square feet, owner Rosemarie Leonardi said. The original store is more than 2,000 square feet.
The space was previously occupied by Jami Ray Boutique, a women’s clothing store, and Little Chances, which sold children’s clothing, toys and books. They have stores in Sacramento.
In an Instagram post announcing the store, Leonardi said she wants to add to the small business community. “We really want to provide the community with different shopping options; really want to see the community flourish, and not have empty spaces.”
The new space allows her to add a lot of body and skin care products that she didn’t offer before, and lets the original store focus on women’s clothing, handbags and jewelry.
After the grand opening, Feliz by Haven will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, and noon to 4 p.m. on Sundays. Haven a Boutique is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, and noon to 4 p.m. on Sundays. Visit its website for additional information.
