About Me
Firstly I would like to welcome you to Amelia Grace Interiors, my online shop which has been lovingly created by myself after much growth on my Facebook page with support and love from family and friends.
Let me introduce myself... My name is Annette, and this for me is something totally different to anything I have ever done.
Over the years I have enjoyed working as a nurse for older people, till childcare became a massive juggling act with our two children, I then decided to give up the career I loved and come to work in our bathroom showroom part time. Fast forward a few years and this became full time working six days a week! As you can imagine we have a fair few settings I needed to dress and found myself spending a fortune with high street retailers and then directing people to their shops off the back of my dressing. I decided to look into suppliers I could use to also retail within our showroom. However, my daughters love for unicorns led me along a different path and using a Facebook group I had to see if any of my friends would like what I had found but didn’t quite fit within our bathroom showroom. It took off in a way I never imagined, with people adding their friends and family as they loved my items and prices so much. And so Select Interiors began 7th August 2017. With absolutely no professional experience in sales, home decor, online selling or creating any kind of website before I'd undoubtledly set myself some huge tasks! Over Christmas is December 2018 I made a decision to rebrand from Select Interiors to Amelia Grace Interiors. I felt it was important to incorporate my daughter due to the amount of help she had given me with the pop up shops, packaging and unwrapping. If a rebrand wasn’t enough we also made an exciting decision to develop our own brand of home fragrance!
In April 2021 We made a big brave and bold decision to re-brand our bathroom showroom, allowing me to display and retail even more of our beautiful products within our showroom with a dedicated display room but I kept on growing and needed more space!
In December 2022 I made the decision to move into a small unit in Sovereign Enterprise Centre in Wigan. However in June 2023 I made the decision to move everything back home. Working full time and having my unit was a challenge. I was getting less and less time to get to the unit and I was only packing orders, nothing else as dispatching was my priority. I felt the whole reason I got the unit had got lost due to my lack of time. It wasn’t an easy decision but one I feel relieved I’ve now made.
If you are local to Wigan I offer in person Collection from my work in Westhoughton, Bolton or my home in Wigan. You can purchase on my website and select in store collection to save on postage and I will contact to arrange collection.
Every day on this journey I'm learning and growing.. Within myself and with my little business and hopefully my ability to find some great products for you all.
Thank-you for taking the time to visit, for supporting me and I hope you've enjoyed taking a look around.
