Fresh for Spring
Written By: Deena Bouknight | Issue: April 2023
With an expanded inventory and the same blend of elegance and playfulness, Rusticks is ready for a busy season. Discover for yourself – visit their showroom at Canoe Point on Cashiers Lake.
Annually, Rusticks continues to offer design services throughout the winter months, but it closes its doors to retail customers in order to present brand new merchandising to correlate with the coming of each spring.
The Cashiers-based furnishings experience offers the latest “mountain chic’’ ambiance through its extensive offerings of living room, dining room, bedroom, patio and outdoor furnishings, lighting, art, and accessories – everything needed to dress a new home or refreshen a well-loved one.
Rusticks reopens for the season on April 13, Thursdays through Saturdays, until May 1, when the store will be open every day but Sundays.
Stacie Platt, Rustick’s manager and Senior Designer, said she is excited about all the store’s new merchandise, which is being delivered daily. Styles and designs are based on extensive research of lines as well as travel to various home furnishings and décor shows. “We have some brand-new collections, such as Amber Lewis x Loloi Rugs and Generation Lighting.”
She added, “We have exciting new items to pair with our signature Rusticks look. We present a little bit of the current trends, but we also stay tried and true to our modern take on rustic furnishings that our clientele loves.”
While Rusticks has been known for three decades for providing a complete approach to each room in a home, it has in recent years added a large selection of outdoor furnishings and outdoor rugs and accessories. “Clients are especially interested in what we have for the outdoors, as spring is the time to decorate those outdoor living spaces,” said Platt.
Besides offering extensive lines for home décor – as well as complete interior design services – Rusticks is all about educating the public in regard to interior and exterior lifestyle. For example, on June 1, local dahlia expert Drew English will teach a plant container class; English is the head gardener of the High Hampton Dahlia Garden. More information about this event and others throughout the summer are available in the store and via www.rusticks.com.
The original Rusticks shop was first located above the Greene & Associates architectural offices in Cashiers at Chestnut Square. However, its popularity resulted in the necessity to expand the store space in 1994 and again in 1996. Eventually, a new location was constructed — Rusticks is currently situated within Canoe Point on beautiful Cashiers Lake.
