A Very, Very, Very Fine House - Arhaus Grand Opening at Crabtree Valley

 

We're all guilty of having 'Our House' obsessions from watching HGTV shows like sporting events.  Life used to be so hard.  But now 'Arhauseverything is easy'  because Arhaus Furniture is now at Crabtree Valley Mall.

 

Made in the USA: This privately owned company started in 1986 with a passion to provide unique high quality, well designed home furnishings.  They design their own products and search for the best manufacturer while controlling quality of each piece.  And fortunately for us all of the upholstered furniture is manufacture right here in Newton, NC.  Over 70% of Arhaus products are made in the USA.

 

Reclaim Recycle: Arhaus made a commitment to the earth's resources by developing unique, yet functional pieces from recycled natural Arhausresources.  They recycle copper into tabletops, harvest tree roots and transform them into chairs.  They find forgotten antiques and give them new life.

 

The world is Inspirational:  Arhaus designers search the world to bring you a global flavor, a fresh influence, a unique color or an unexpected silhouette.  It's no surprise many of their pieces are exclusive works of art.

 

House Calls: With over 20,000 square feet of home furniture and accessories, including rugs, lighting and home accents, it can be overwhelming when you visit Arhaus.  But fortunately they Arhaushave hired a couple of licensed Interior Designers among their sales staff.  We had Interior Designer, Michele Zaytoun give us a grand tour of the store.  With her assistance and expertise she'll help you space plan your rooms to fit your needs, style and budget.  Complimentary house calls can be scheduled with Michele.  You can contact her directly at 305-793-8510 or call the store and schedule your appointment with her.   

 

Great service along with hassle-free shipping makes Arhaus a very, very, very fine place to shop!

The Beltline Buzz items are selected by our editors.  No one can pay to be featured on The Beltline Buzz..  That's what advertising is for, and it's always labeled as such.  Selling ourselves (literally) would destroy the legitimacy, integrity, and fun of  The Beltline Buzz.  Plus, we'd never earn your trust that way.  So we'll never make a dime off your meal at a restaurant nor a penny from the sale of the latest accessory we told you about.

 

That said, on occasion, we will send out "Dedicated" e-mails on behalf of sponsors.  You'll recognize them from the subject line: "The Beltline Buzz Dedicated E-mail."  Yes, these are paid for.  And, no, we would never sell our subscriber list to anyone.  Not for any amount of money. 

 

We hope that you continue to enjoy your Beltline Buzz.  We look forward to delivering it.
