black friday

black friday....

i would not be honest with you if i said i wasn't going to go out...to at least one or two places.

but my black friday stops are not the normal electronic hustle and bustle (although i totally get that).

i usually tend to check out places like jbandme and other local boutiques because they have some serious sales. although my friend laura isn't letting any information leak to me!

here at found we will be celebrating at 10am normal store hours.

30% because we might be out there in the masses ourselves and 70% because we love turkey and might be in a turkey coma until at least 9:30 hahaha.

come and join us after the morning madness at 10am for 20% off the entire store all day (until 5:30) and we will have beverages and treats for you all morning long!

we can't wait to get our holiday shopping on!

here is a peek at some of the new arrivals....

Helping Hand!

On November 9, Downtown Holland merchants are asking you to “shop for a cause.” As the need continues to grow on the East Coast because of devastation from Hurricane Sandy, many of the local merchants will be donating 10% of that day’s sales or promoting donation jars to give to the Red Cross.

Participating stores will be marked by red balloons. Whether you are getting a head start on your Christmas shopping or picking up a small item “just because,” you can come support “Our Hands Reaching East” by shopping at your local downtown merchants on Friday.


Join us at FOUND, Holland today as 10% of ALL sales will be going to help our friends out east!

Thank you JB and ME girls for putting this together!!!

When Unexpected Things Happen...


When unexpected things happen...
 
  A year ago Found made the leap to expand its flagship location in Holland by opening a smaller second store in Grand Rapids on Cherry street. It was a scramble to be open in time for the holidays but we managed to be up and running by Dec 1. We enjoyed a great holiday season and what was the start of a new following of FOUND fans in Grand Rapids and we appreciate each and every one of you..

The ability to keep 2 stores going at that time was made possible by the addition of a 3rd person. It doesn't take a village to run multiple stores but it does take a little manpower (excuse me, womanpower!) to keep in all going...
  
But sometimes unexpected things happen - and partway into our calendar year our new partner announced her decision not to continue with the store . And after much careful thought and consideration we have made the difficult decision to close our Grand Rapids location at the end of November. 

There may be a new Grand Rapids location in our future but our Holland store is busy and thriving and we are focusing on providing the best products and customer care we can! If you haven't been to our Holland location it is a much larger space which affords us the ability to offer not only a larger selection of all the great things you could find in Grand Rapids but expanded design and custom paint and upholstery as well.

This decision was not an easy one. It simply came down to quality vs. quantity. We couldn't provide our loyal customers the quality they deserved and expected with just the two of us.

We are looking forward to a cozy holiday season in Holland and hope to see you out there! We will also be diligent about posting the fun new arrivals that appear almost daily.  

Be sure to visit us at the many exciting Holiday events and shows coming up! Look for us this weekend at the Forest Hills Eastern gift show as well as the Downtown Holland Shopping Jam! 

   We are sorry to see our little Cherry street store close but we look forward to seeing you at our Holland location soon.

 And mention the code word 'Cherry' and recieve 10% off your purchase through December 31st.

Looking forward to seeing you!
