Friends and business partners Lauren Payne, and Samantha Corlis (who also owns Sanctum Medi Spa Retreat), opened Johnnycake Road two weeks before Christmas.
“We were looking at other stores but you just couldn’t go past this space. With the pressed tin ceilings and the wooden floors, who wouldn’t? It has a beautiful feeling to it,” Ms Payne said.
“We were really well supported over Christmas, and even looking around here now you can see the gaps that we’ve got. I’m placing orders every day to keep up with demand.”
The store currently stocks home furnishings, jewellery, gourmet nibbles, kids clothing and accessories.
