Kickoff to the rest of the year….


I can’t believe it’s already September! This year has flown by (probably because I bought a retail store) and before you know it, snow will be falling and we will be decorating for the holidays (yikes – yes I just said it)! Many of you are ready – I know because you are asking when Christmas merchandise will be in the store. Soon, soon my friends!

September is a busy month – from school starting back up to early planning for holidays with family, we all have a lot going on! Adela’s is no exception – we have a lot in store for you (pun totally intended!), so please keep reading for all the upcoming events and a few tips to keep your wits about you during this busy time of year!

Calendar of Events:
September 7 & 8         25% off all collegiate merchandise – including new Iowa, ISU and UNI wood signs

September 14 & 15     Adela’s Annual Porch Sale – savings up to 75% off

September 20-22         Fall Open House – savings, new merchandise and Pandora Promotion


Did you know a lot of our vendors are small business owners just like us? Our newest wood collegiate signs (and seasonal signs) are from Kendrick Home in Edgewood, Iowa. We were referred to this great company by Fairfield native Meredith Flattery who handles their marketing. We love finding companies to work with who have a great backstory – typically a family operation and a dream that grew into a full-fledged business! Stop in to check out this craftsmanship!

Also in store now are canvas paintings from Darren Gygi Home Collection. I met Darren and his family at Market – he is the artist, his wife runs the business and their 14 year old daughter works sales. They have an incredible story to go along with his incredible artistic talent. Stop in to see his Halloween countdown calendar, fall paintings and soon to come Christmas scenes.

We continue to receive new handbags, including collections from Chala and Simply Noelle. We are anticipating a new shipment soon of leather wallets and totes from Abbachino – a new line from Spain that we think you are going to love. And with the cool temperatures coming, we have new wraps and sweater jackets that will give you a warming layer to get through this weather transition and look great at the same time!

Many of you have already started shopping for holiday gifts and we want to help make that easier and stress free for you. Stop in, call, email or message us for ideas. We love putting together suggestions and helping you shop for those hard to shop for people in your life. Don’t forget about our personal selections and complimentary gift wrapping.
As you begin to host gatherings, remember we have décor and entertaining pieces to make your table pop and hosting easier. At the end of the day, it’s all about the people we share our time and home with, so give yourself a break and make sure you are taking time to enjoy yourself and give quality time to those you love!

Happy New Year!

  Another year has come and gone and each one seems to go by quicker than the one before! As we pause to reflect on 2021, we are very gratef...
