For the past 33 years, Rose Arbor Fabrics has been a wildly successful home interior institution in the Myrtle Beach area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Owner Page Nash took over the store in 1994, and a second Rose Arbor location opened in Pawleys Island in 2015. Since then, they quickly outgrew the Pawleys Island store to where they are now. Proof that Rose Arbor Fabrics has grown in popularity and demand over the last three decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPeople have always loved coming in here and getting ideas \u2013 and there\u2019s a lot to see,\u201d says Nash with a laugh. \u201cWe have a lot of people that come back and, a lot of times, they\u2019ll buy something, and then they\u2019ll come back in and say, \u2018I\u2019m not here to buy.\u2019 And we tell them just to make yourself at home and enjoy. And that makes them happy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nash adds that her customer base stretches from locals living here on the Grand Strand to those visiting from across the United States and into Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe find both those shopping for themselves and interior designers shopping with us,\u201d she says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only is clientele drawn to shopping and browsing the namesake bolts and bolts of fabric, but also home d\u00e9cor accessories for the indoors and out. The inventory also includes furniture (chairs, sofas, tables, dressers), pillows, drapes, window treatments, upholstery, gifts, lamps, rugs, artwork, and more. The two Rose Arbor Fabrics stores, as well as Nash\u2019s sister store, Barbara\u2019s Fine Gifts, which opened in 2008 next door to the Myrtle Beach location, also offer interior design services from anything on the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are always willing to help and help put things together for them,\u201d says Nash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What catches her eye when shopping for fabrics to stock?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI look for happy colors \u2013 always happy,\u201d she says. \u201cI have a hard time buying grays. And you can tell in the store we don\u2019t have a lot of grays and neutrals. We tend to have more color. I\u2019m drawn to that. I think fabrics have gotten prettier over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nash says she tries to float between the two stores but feels confident in her crew on the south end that has been running things since first opening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey\u2019ve really done a good job hand learning the ropes because most of them came in and didn\u2019t know anything about fabrics just like I did 30 years ago,\u201d she says. \u201cI didn’t know what a yard of fabric was!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nash says her mother is an interior designer, which led her down this business path. Nash graduated from the College of Charleston with a degree in business administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe always like to make people happy,\u201d she says. \u201cAnd we\u2019re always honest with them and pride ourselves on customer service. We want them to leave with a smile on their face. I love it when people bring in pictures of the finished product from what they started with here. That\u2019s one of our favorite things: to see something that we\u2019ve helped to create in some way and have it come to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nash says that Rose Arbor Fabrics will be hosting special events in the fall, such as an open house the weekend before Election Day, when all three stores will have 20 percent of all items storewide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
