Big Announcement Time

We have lots of juicy updates for you and it’s about time that we share them.

First, Gray Oak Studio is happy to share that Leah Hook is taking on the new role of CEO and continuing her role as Principal Designer. And, she has already grown the Gray Oak team with two new design assistants who you will meet on Instagram one of these days! Always check the stories. The stories have the good stuff. AND, there’s more, Gray Oak has a new social media manager, who is responsible for the amazing reels that you’re hopefully enjoying! But, don’t worry - it’s Leah responding to your comments, answering your DMs and writing all the disarmingly witty captions.

One more new hire that cannot go unmentioned is the addition of Leah’s dog, Ginny, to the team. Ginny has humbly accepted the role of Sofa Tester.

 
 

While we are incredibly excited for this new chapter, we want to take a moment to wish Sonia the best in whatever comes next.

Next up on the list of announcements: We are moving. You may have already learned this through spoilers on Instagram stories (again - stories are where it’s all spilled). The move will take most of the summer as the new office is renovated, then furnished, then inundated with fabric samples. As soon as the lint settles, we will share our address…which will be important…more on that in a minute.

We also previously mentioned the addition of a new design service on the horizon. The horizon is here and that new service is Bookshelf Styling. You asked for it (and then asked more) and we’ve finally put together a plan that will be fun, personalized and add that “wow” factor to your home. The details are on our services page (scroll down!).

And last, but maybe best, we are going to let you shop our stockroom…monthly. No more waiting until the once a year Tent Sale only to realize it’s on the same weekend as your cousin’s bridal shower. The plan will be to open our stockroom to all the decor lovers one set day a month (hypothetically, the first Friday). There will be a regular section of all the decor we use for our ongoing full service and bookshelf styling projects and there will be a “tent sale” section full of deeply discounted items. As soon as we’re settled in our new space, we will share the details.

To be sure you get the latest info when we share our new address, start booking new Bookshelf Styling services and schedule our first stockroom sale, subscribe to our blog.

Thank you so very much for following, supporting and being here.

Annual Gray Oak Tent Sale Announced!

For the second year running, we are having a tent sale! The idea is to sell (at deep discounts) as much of our home decor inventory as possible. AND, this year we have a bunch of large and small furniture items. So, let’s get the important details out of the way:


WHEN: Saturday, May 21 from 10 am - 2 pm

WHERE: 18 William Fairfield Drive in Wenham

HOW: Cash or Venmo Only

FINE PRINT: All sales are final


Here is the other sneaky detail: If you’re getting this email, then you’re officially friends and family of Gray Oak. And, friends and family of Gray Oak are invited to the presale on FRIDAY, May 20th from 12 pm - 4 pm. You get first dips on everything.

GAME DAY TIPS

1) Don’t forget your cash money or your phone (Venmo)

2) Bring reusable bags. We will have some disposable bags on hand, but we ran out quickly last year.

3) This year, we will be bringing in groups of 5 people at a time to our actual stockroom. SO, if you’re the early bird friend, you can take photos and videos to send to your fashionably late friends and get them prepped on the good stuff. You can also take pictures of prices to head to an ATM and circle back!

4) Take measurements of the spots in your home where you can use a plant stand or mirror in advance so you’re confident in your purchase because we can’t “hold” items and all sales are final.

Below are a few large furniture items that are for sale. Definitely measure for these in advance and you can also reach out with interest in advance. All of these items will require a large vehicle to move.


 
 

We have 2 and we’re selling both! It retails for $2,500, you can get one online for sale at $2,150 and we are selling it for $1,075. Click here for a link an online listing with all the details and dimensions.


 
 

This pedestal dining table is 54” in diameter and it’s stunning. It retails for $1,600 and we’re selling it for $800. Click here for details and more dimensions.


 
 

This console table retails for $1,000 and we’re selling it for $500 (you get the idea, all furniture is 50% off). Click here for details and dimensions.

We very much hope to see you at the tent sale! Whether you’re there to browse or buy or just say hello, we welcome it all. We are so grateful for your support.

Cheers,

Leah
