You might have seen our report earlier, that downtown Bismarck was getting a new business, Tiff's Pub & Grub. We love seeing new businesses pop up in Bismarck, but sadly, we also have news today that a home decor boutique will soon be closing.

According to a post made on the business's Facebook page, Stella's Home Decor will close its doors at the end of this year (2025).

If you've ever stepped into Stella's, I'm sure you got the same feeling I did: warmth and coziness. If there's one thing homeowners love to do, it's decorate their homes and showcase their unique style.

Sadly, we will no longer be able to shop for those unique items at this local store.

After a great deal of thought, reflection, and many tough conversations, we’ve made the difficult decision to close our store at the end of the year.

 

The post went on to explain that ever since COVID, they've struggled with sales. The owners said they tried revamping their offerings and updating their approach, but unfortunately, those efforts didn't help boost their sales.

The owners also said that this was a tough decision for them, and that they will cherish all the memories and moments with their BisMan customers.


We have truly loved the connections, conversations, and friendships that have grown within these walls. We’ve celebrated life’s joys and weathered its challenges right alongside you, and knowing we won’t experience those day-to-day moments with you will be one of the hardest parts of closing our doors.

Stella's will wrap up business by Christmas and move out of the building in downtown Bismarck by the end of the year.

If you're looking to shop local for Christmas gifts, you might want to swing by the store this week as they're offering 40 percent off their remaining inventory.

Go over there and check it out while you can! 

We wish the owners the best of luck and success in their next adventure.
