Reminder...Shop Local!

As we gear up for the holiday shopping season and the busiest shopping weekend of the year please remember to support your local businesses. Here are some great facts to keep in mind from the 3/50 Project website:

For every $100 spent in local and independently run stores, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll and other expenditures. If that $100 is spent in a chain store only $43 stays here. Spend it online and NOTHING stays in our community.

This Saturday the 26th we will be participating in a new movement called Small Business Saturday. This is a day when we should all remember to shop local and celebrate America's small businesses. Here at Urban Dwellings Design we will be offering 25% off any in store purchase and 10% off any special order.

We have got some great small accessories for gifting and some really sweet holiday decor, check out the adorable hand carved wood owl ornaments!

I hope you can make it!

Habitat Shoes + Urban Dwellings Design = a whole lotta style

In an effort to do some cross promoting we have teamed up with our friends at Habitat Shoes. All of us girls at Urban Dwellings LOVE to shop at Habitat. And every time we wear their shoes we get compliments and end up sending people their way. Once we had sent a few customers in, Gina the store manager at Habitat came up with a great idea. We could each have a few products in each others stores in hopes to get people talking, possibly find a new place to shop or be reminded of a local store they have not been into in a while.

Right now at Urban Dwellings you can find these stunning BCBG ruffled booties with a mirrored heel.


As well as these "Blue Snake" heels by Loeffler Randall Ramona...they are hot!



At Habitat right now you can find this Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams white lacquered "Turner" side table with the gorgeous new Artichoke Lamp by Barbara Cosgrove Lamps.

Support your local businesses and check out the 3/50 project to learn more about how shopping locally helps our local economy.
