Local businesses are starting to hold Holiday Open Houses this weekend, though they’ll continue to celebrate and offer specials throughout the season.
A list of local businesses and their Open House hours has been started below. Any business that would like to be added can email [email protected] with their hours.
Natasha Stanley, owner of Bella Ragazza, said shopping local and supporting small businesses this year is as important as ever.
“We offer sincerity, passion and love in each client experience,” she said. “In return, you will keep our local community thriving during uncertain times. We work hard and go the extra mile to make each customer feel comfortable. Offering our products online, selling over the phone and through Live videos, we are here to serve you the best way possible.”
Like other businesses, Welborn Events will follow safety guidelines as they join the community in kicking off the holiday season.
“We are ready to help the community celebrate and decorate,” she said. “Our Open House on Saturday from 9-1 will adhere to social distancing measures and if a client needs us to we can set up a virtual walk-thru or appointment following this weekend.”
Christy Chaney, owner of Studio Slant, said after 10 years of Holiday Open Houses, this year comes with a curve ball.
“We will be wrapping gifts in the store but if you want to shop on your couch you can call or text us and we can help with all your shopping needs and deliver to your front porch,” she said. “We are here to support the community, bring in some holiday excitement and keep everyone happy and healthy.
