WE ARE RELOCATING!

To all our customers near and far

First, we are only RELOCATING, NOT closing. 

This is scary, exciting and sad too. It’s really bitter sweet…. But an opportunity has come up that we cannot ignore. The last few years have been extremely hard with dad’s health, Covid, hurricane Ian and then hurricane Helene and hurricane Milton. Helene and Milton kind of made us realize we cannot continue to live and work under the threat of loosing everything 2-3 months of the year. We were extremely fortunate that the shop was not affected with any of those storms, but it’s a stressful risk we just can’t live under any longer. The thought of leaving all our dear customers and friends here in Florida is the hardest part of this. But we need to make the hard choice on what’s best for all of us and the business. Being near family and in a location that allows us to own our shop property only makes good sense.

Our time line currently is to close the Florida location May 3, 2025. 
Online orders will continues to ship from Florida until mid May. 

          Then we will resume website only and live online shows from South Carolina ASAP. 

We are anticipating our shipping being interrupted for only a week days at most. 

Then the new retail shop back open early this fall sometime. 

   We want to let you all know this was not an easy decision. Dad is 94 and mom is 83, we have been in the rug hooking business for over 25 years and our gift shop for 23 years before that. Working hard and with a passion for what we do is in our blood and we will keep doing our live shows and have the shop open ASAP for in store shopping late fall.

Remember our garden parties and fun events in Maine? Well look for them to start up again! Since we stopped traveling to shows a few years ago, we have been able to focus on local fun things and we will continue this once we are settled in SC. We think you will love the new location as much as we do and we know our vision for it will excite you as much as it does us. This is our second move as a rug hooking business…. Everyone had their doubts about us doing wool in Florida lol but we hoped for the  “if you build it they will come…” to be true… boy was it! You guys came in droves and helped us create a destination way beyond our wildest dreams. We hope you follow us on our next adventure and maybe it will be a little easier for you to come visit us there!

REMEMBER! WE ARE NOT CLOSING, ONLY RELOCATING TO IRMO, SOUTH CAROLINA

 Below is the future home of

Searsport Rug Hooking located in Irmo, SC.

We look forward to this next chapter in our life story and hope you can join us there soon!
