Seven years ago, mother of two Cheryl Calvin opened The Store in Lake Highlands to keep her busy while her kids were at school.

It started as a simple clothing boutique, and then Calvin started adding more and more items.

Now, The Store is the go-to place for an array of products, including Vera Bradley bags; jewelry; decorative crosses; initial-branded items; Tyler candles; baby, wedding and graduate gifts; and much more.

The merchandise brings a wide range of prices and customers, so there is something for every shopper — from teenager to grandparent — on any budget.

Concentrating on a family atmosphere, Calvin said the customers become your friends.

The biggest compliment Calvin ever received was when a girl came in and said, “I got five things; they are all different and I love them all.”
