Danielle Sutton, owner
of I Want That Bag (IWTB)
consignment shop in Luc -
know was surprised by the
number of people who
came into her store on
Campbell Street and asked
if she would be carrying
children's clothing along
with her adult clothing
and items. When planning
IWTB it had been decided
that to do so would have
required a lot of space and
a large inventory and was
not included.
Due to the high demand
for consignment chil-
dren's wear, Sutton has
now opened a second
location at 119, Bruce
Road 1 called IWTB's Li'l
Bitty Boutique. It had
been pointed out to her
that the nearest store of
this type was Goderich,
which is a long way to
travel for a lot of shoppers.
They wanted something
local to serve the sur-
rounding rural area and
communities.
The new store is located
on the north edge of Luc -
know in the old Gibson's
Farm Equipment shop,
which allows for lots of
parking. The office and
retail side of the building
has been taken over to
create Li'l Bitty Boutique
with each office housing
items for a different age
group from the Little Dip-
per room for the under
24 -month -olds up through
to the Teens Rule space
which goes up to size 16.
There is a Kid's Lounge
in the centre of the space
which includes a play
room, movie room and
toys to keep the children
entertained while the
adults shop.
In keeping with the
model set up in the origi-
nal store, Sutton will
extend the policy of sup-
porting local craftspeople
and those with home-
based businesses by car-
rying their children's -
related products in the
new location. Handmade
items that are already car-
ried are wooden toy boxes,
headbands as well as
stuffed toys and dolls.
Shoppers will also find a
display of painted chil-
dren's furniture.
Currently Sutton has
over 300 consignment
vendors registered in the
original IWTB store and
40 in the new Li'l Bitty
Boutique. Not only is this
a consignment business,
Sutton sees it as a way of
creating jobs for the com-
munity. She welcomes
those people who are
looking for business
advice or mentoring to
begin their own busi-
nesses. She considers both
locations to be networking
sites, not only to the oppo-
site location, but also to
make referrals to other
businesses and services in
Lucknow. Sutton envi-
sions Lucknow as a desti-
nation for shoppers with
all businesses networking
with each other to
strengthen and grow each
other's clientele.
It will take a while for
the IWTB's Li'l Bitty Bou-
tique to grow. Sutton
plans to hold a Grand
Opening in the spring.
Clothing and other chil-
dren's items are already
available in the new store.
Eventually Sutton plans to
add outdoor play and
other equipment to the
products offered.
Jordanna Shular and
Karen McKay will be co -
managing IWTB's Li'l Bitty
Boutique. It is open
Thursday and Friday from
9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and
Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to
3 p.m. You can get infor-
mation by calling 519-812-
