Wee Threads at 18 East Blithedale, Suite 12, closed in May 2014.
Wee Threads, the longtime purveyor of “recycled kid couture,” has closed its brick-and-mortar store at 18 East Blithedale Ave. (Suite 12) downtown in favor of selling exclusively online, according to a note posted on the store’s website by owner Teresa Gerould. Wee Threads had been in the space for seven years.
“May 2014 brings some exciting changes – we closed our retail brick-n-mortar shop to more effectively tend to our ever-growing online sales,” Gerould wrote. “We are ‘turning the corner’ and growing in this new direction, due to less overhead costs, time constraints, and a multitude of other factors; basically downsizing operations while at the same time maximizing profits. We want to be where retail is headed – online sales as convenient as your mobile device!”
