Interior Designer Claire Schwab, ASID has been decorating in Alexandria for over 30 years. She loves helping clients transform their spaces and meet their design needs.
Her first retail showroom in the 90’s moved into her home while she raised her 3 children, and now she comes back with more experience, insight and fervor.
She shares her pop up space at 825 S. Washington St. with The Queen Bee and Antiques at the Inn through the end of summer — or maybe longer!
This Saturday and Sunday, May 2 and 3, she will be hosting a sidewalk sale at her pop-up boutique.
Hours are noon - 6 p.m. both days at 825 S. Washington St.
Gift Certificates for consultations are available, too. To schedule, call 703-615-9495.
