Sadly, this is the final week that our storefront will be open in downtown Ennis, Texas.

We would love for you to stop by, visit with us, and do a little shopping one last time before we close our doors. Friday will be our final day open to the public.

Beginning Saturday, we will transition to being online only. You can continue shopping with us through our website and choose either shipping or local pickup for your orders.

As we prepare for this next chapter, you may notice a few changes around the store. We've already started moving some items from our storage room, and a few display racks will be leaving this week as we make our move back home.

We are incredibly grateful for all of the love and support you've shown us during our time in downtown Ennis. Thank you for being part of our journey.

And don't forget—if you're heading to Canton First Monday over the July 4th weekend, be sure to stop by and see us! We would love to visit with you and share this exciting new chapter with you.

We would like to share an important update regarding our storefront in downtown Ennis. Due to ongoing challenges with foot traffic and sales, we have made the difficult decision to close our retail location sooner then we wanted. Our final day for in-store shopping will be Friday June 19, 2026.

Although our storefront will be closing, Cactus Rae Designs will continue to operate. Customers can still find us on Facebook to place pre-orders and place orders through our online store for shipping, arrange pickup at our home in Bristol, or schedule pickup in Ennis.

We sincerely appreciate the support we have received from our customers, friends, and community during our time in downtown Ennis. Your business and encouragement have meant a great deal to us, and we are truly grateful for the opportunity to serve you.

We are also excited to explore new opportunities through a big vendor event and look forward to sharing additional details in the coming days.

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to serving you in this next chapter of our business.

To our valued friends, family, and customers,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the difficult decision to close our beautiful storefront at the end of July.

We have truly loved being part of downtown Ennis and are beyond grateful for every customer who has supported us along the way. Your loyalty, encouragement, and kindness have meant more to us than words can express. Next month we will actually celebrate 4 years of being in business with most of those being somewhere here in downtown Ennis.

This past year has been incredibly challenging for small businesses, and unfortunately we’ve seen a major decline in foot traffic. With little to no sales and only a few people coming through our doors, made it clear that it is time for us to make this heartbreaking decision.

We have poured our hearts, souls, time, and savings into this business. Running a small business — especially in a small town — is not easy, and coming to terms with this feels like a tremendous loss for us.

To everyone who has supported us from day one, shopped with us occasionally, shared our posts, or simply stopped in while passing through — thank you. Every single purchase and kind word mattered.

Although we are closing our storefront, this is not goodbye completely. We plan to keep our page active, continue offering pre-orders, keep our website open, and hopefully participate in vendor events moving forward.

We had hoped to remain open until the end of October when our lease ended, but unfortunately we are unable to continue that long. We have submitted our two months’ notice and will officially close at the end of July.

Between now and then, we would deeply appreciate your continued support. Please continue sharing our store on social media, recommending us to friends and family, and shopping with us in-store or online. Every bit of support helps us more than you know. Please share our post with your friends and family.

Thank you for being part of our journey.
