The owner, Kristie Lee Wagner, confirmed the store will close for good this Sunday, May 29. She said she will still focus on a wedding invitation line in a private, appointment-only studio around the corner. Everything in the store is being sold at 50% off or more, and they will be selling all furniture, shelves and light fixtures as well.
Hours are today-Friday from 2 p.m.-6:30 p.m.; Saturday from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. and Sunday from noon-5 p.m. on their last day.
It was just a few months ago another stationary-focused shop, Event Studio closed its doors after a tough year. Paper Doll (which incidentally used to be located in the current Anjenu spot) seems to be still going strong, so the state of stationary shops on Division Street is not all bad.
But the closing of Anjenu was more of a surprise, since the store never had any deeply-discounted sales or other signs of distress, as we could see it. The store seemed especially busy on Saturdays and Sundays when destination shoppers made their way over to the Division Street boutiques.
Wagner did say it was "amazing" being on Division Street and that you'll definietly see her walking her mini-dachshund mascot, Molasses, around the neighborhood. So say hi! Best of luck.
