When it comes to gifts for babies, birthdays, housewarming and holidays, The Blue Willow has products you can’t find anywhere else. “We always are striving to have unique gifts. We try to have items that other people don’t have,” owner Anna Barnes said.
The Blue Willow has been in business in Cahaba Heights for 17 years, but Barnes was a frequent customer and bought it from former owner Cyndy Kiel about six years ago. “It’s been fantastic. I have a great staff,” Barnes said. “I love being able to help customers find that right gift.”
The staff at Blue Willow is one thing that sets the store apart, she said. They are not only friendly but also knowledgeable about the products and can help customers find exactly what they need. “Sometimes [customers] know exactly what they want when they walk in the door, and sometimes they’re not sure and they need suggestions,” Barnes said.
The Blue Willow sells a variety of products for babies, home decor, seasonal products, college gear, jewelry and accessories, candles and more. They also offer gift-wrapping and ways to personalize products such as monogramming, engraving or etching. Outside products can also be brought in for monogramming.
The products at Blue Willow are constantly changing to keep the shelves fresh, Barnes said. Every department is always on the lookout for exciting new vendors or the latest products from their popular brands. “We’re your one-stop shop for any gift need,” Barnes said.
The Blue Willow, 3930 Crosshaven Drive, is open Monday-Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, call 968-0909 or find them on Facebook.
