Melissa Creech Designs Has a New Home in Summerfield, NC: Shop Our Custom Pillows at Martin’s Mercantile

Jan 27, 2025

Melissa Creech Designs has a new home!

We’re thrilled to share that Melissa Creech Designs has a brand new home! Beginning March 2025, you can shop our collection of custom-made, designer throw pillows at Martin's Mer c antile in Summerfield, North Carolina.

After more than 13 years of offering our decorative pillows through Aubrey Home in Greensboro, we are excited to continue serving our community in this new, charming retail space just 10-minutes north of Greensboro, NC.

Why We Chose Martin’s Mercantile in Summerfield, NC

Martin’s Mercantile, which opened in late 2024, is a beautifully restored space located in the historic Martin House. The store brings together a curated collection of women's clothing, gifts, and local artisan products, making it a perfect fit for Melissa Creech Designs.

Lauren Cox, owner of Martin's Mercantile, has a vision to create a lifestyle destination. As she describes it:

"I really want to be a lifestyle location. Somewhere you can stop by and grab something for your home, your friend, yourself. Run in real quick. Stay for a while. Spend a bunch! Yes, please. Or be budget minded. I am here for it all!"

Her welcoming spirit, along with the sunlit interior and generous porches where we can display our indoor-outdoor pillows, made this move an easy decision.

What You’ll Find at Our New Location

At our new Summerfield location, you can:

- Browse our unique selection of decorative and designer throw pillows in person.
- Get personalized advice on pillow combinations and fabric selection.
- Chat with Melissa about your custom home furnishings projects.
- Schedule a shopping appointment with Melissa during normal store hours.
- Schedule custom pillow & home décor design consultations.
- Enjoy the cozy, local atmosphere of Martin’s Mercantile and its spacious outdoor gathering space.

A Local Legacy Continues

When Aubrey Home closed, many longtime customers reached out, wondering where they could find our pillows next. The overwhelming response was encouraging:

"Melissa, you've got to find a local place where you can sell your pillows. I've got to know to where you're going to be."

Thanks to a recommendation from my friend Debbie Brown (owner of Buckhead Betties), I connected with Lauren Cox and quickly realized Martin’s Mercantile was the right fit for Melissa Creech Designs.
