PUTNEY — Lisa Taylor began her adventure with Swirl by working for the consignment store for two years before she became its owner.
Now, after 10 years at her present location, she gets a chance to “put her fingerprint on it” at a new location, she said, with the business's Feb. 1 move to the old Saw Mill building at 52 Main St.
The building, next to River Valley Credit Union, is a far cry from her humble single-room renovated gas station beginnings and boasts three floors.
The 900-square-foot basement level houses furniture consignments and antiques from local dealers, while the main floor features what Taylor bills as “first-rate, secondhand” clothing, vintage apparel, and jewelry. Upstairs is a menswear room.
Sharing space on the third floor is Get Out, which will offer outdoor adventure gear, horse tack, and kayaks.
Funky and fun artwork by John Smith and other local artists graces the walls.
A grand opening party will take place in mid- to late February, and plenty of gallery nights are planned.
Hours remain the same: seven days a week, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
