Fun snowmen, comfy flannel shirts, holiday scented candles, warm blankets, and more are sure to get you thinking of days ahead with family and friends. Oh! What Fun! ... you say!

October 5, 6 & 7 - I'll Get You My Pretty

A spin on the wizard of Oz this month with I'll Get You My Pretty. Lots of beautiful (pretty) things to discover throughout the store. Whether it's a cozy flannel adorned with an outline of the U.P. or an assortment of pumpkins to decorate your space, you can find it at Re-Treat. Fall is always one of our favorite times as oranges, browns, and yellows just feel like home. Decorate your space with some cozy finds or get yourself some "Pretty".  Join us Thursday for the best selection: 5pm-8pm, then come back Friday 10am-6pm or Saturday 10am-4pm. Refreshing the stock throughout the weekend so you never know what you might find.

September 7, 8, & 9 - Harvest Moon

Fall is here! Actually I don't think we ever had summer so let's just celebrate fall. We spent the weekend in Copper Harbor helping with the annual Copper Harbor Trails Fest and the difference in leaf color between Friday and Tuesday was dramatic. If you can't stop it, you can only embrace it. In tune with the season, Re-Treat Design has been transformed into autumn. Oranges, browns, blacks, witches, pumpkins and more await you this month. New furniture pieces and lots of fresh goods can be found. Hope you can join us for fall, already...yes, fall...

Open Thursday 5-8pm, Friday 10am-6pm, and Saturday 10am-4pm. Hope you can join us for "Harvest Moon."

August 3, 4, & 5 - Re-Treat Flea

It's our favorite event of the year! It's Re-Treat Flea Weekend! Thursday (5pm-8pm) and Friday (10am-6pm) are typical Re-Treat openings but watch for sale items sprinkled throughout the store. Then, on Saturday, it's our outdoor Flea Market featuring select vendors offering fun goods under the sun. Of course Re-Treat is also open during the outdoor Flea. The Flea Market runs from 10am-4pm but you should arrive at 10am for the best selection. So much fun inside and out! Hope to see you there.

More preview pics on facebook.  PS - Don't be concerned by the for sale signs in the yard as it's only the building that is for sale. Re-Treat will continue forward with hopes of renting from a new owner or relocating if needed.

July 6, 7 & 8 - Summertime!

"I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June." Although it's been a rainy few months, I think we can all agree that we have finally found summer. Family and friends are heavy on our agendas, daylight seems to last forever, and outside time is treasured. Summertime is not just a season but a state of mind. This month we bring you "Summertime" at Re-Treat. Stop in and find beautiful things, vintage things, and special things to decorate your space (inside and out), for entertaining or for yourself during these long summer days. Hope to see you there.  Thursday 5pm-8pm, Friday 10am-6pm, and Saturday 10am-4pm.

June 1, 2 & 3 Weathered and Worn

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!” ~Hunter S. Thompson

This is one of my favorite quotes and I think of it every time I come home with new bruises from an outdoor adventure. It seems that not only us but our homes should also tell a life story, weathered and worn has character and a history that bright and shiny does not. What is your favorite piece in your home? I bet it is not new but a family heirloom or a unique vintage piece that you discovered on a excursion with family or friends. Maybe a coffee table that was dragged back from a flea market in Minnesota with it's stained top from a life most likely in a workshop or barn and legs revealing shades of leftover blue, grey and white paint? If that coffee table could talk, it would also say what a ride....and now it is part of my story...   

See you this weekend for "Weathered and Worn".  Hoping you find that special piece that speaks to you, fits perfectly in your home, and comes with a great story. Thursday 5pm-8pm, Friday 10am-6pm, and Saturday 10am-4pm.
