Elizabeth Edwards to sell furniture in Chapel Hill
Submitted by mschultz on 06/02/2009 - 14:14
Elizabeth Edwards plans to open a furniture store in Chapel Hill this October, the Chapel Hill/Orange County Visitors Bureau reports.
Edwards has leased space in Rosemary Village at 400 W. Rosemary St. downtown, near the Greenbridge condo towers.
The store, called Red Window, will feature a mix of styles and prices patterned after a charity store called The Red Door that her mother managed when she lived in Japan, the visitors bureau says.
While on her book tour for “Resilience,” Edwards told reporters that she had bought a large selection of furniture in High Point. Red Window LLC has also obtained a certificate of occupancy from the town of Chapel Hill for the space, according to town public information officer Catherine Lazorko.
The Rosemary Village building is on the corner of Rosemary Street and Mitchell Lane in downtown Chapel Hill. The mixed use building features commercial retail and office space facing Rosemary Street, with 30 feet of window frontage and 38 condominiums ranging from $350,000 to $700,000 according to its Web site.

Tue, 09/15/2009 - 05:49 — Steven_JonesWe wish the best of luck to Elizabeth Edwards. Furniture stores are a good addition to have in any town or location. We all need to have access to more unusual furniture stores wherever we live, since the items we buy from there have the power to enhance our homes in many different ways.
Will the furniture she supplies be useful for outside the home as well? We sometimes forget that outside spaces such as
pergolas are just as important to furnish well. The better and more comfortably furnished they are, the more likely it is that we will get the best use out of them.

Perhaps she doesn't want to?

Mon, 09/07/2009 - 00:57 — netormikFor me it's a good move for Elizabeth. She's just following her passion and I like it. The only thing I'm worried she needs to pay more attention to her health. All the best. (http://themesofinterest.com)

These businesses can only be profited if they are providing high quality bedroom furniture. This effects a lot on their reputation. Therefore, everyone concerning the same field should take care of these things.

Wed, 06/03/2009 - 21:26 — jasonbakerI'm afraid that the N&O is going to lose a great deal of readership if they can't do a better job moderating the despicable things said on its blogs. One of the places where newspapers ought to be positioned to do a better job than competing new media is in imposing a sense of credibility, not just in their stories but in the discussion surrounding them. By insisting that comments be associated with a real identity, and refusing to be an avenue for visceral, hateful speech to be spread in the community, the N&O could still be a relevant and important resource. But until I get some evidence that they're moving in this direction, this blog is no longer going to be a part of my daily reading.
Public scrutiny
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 20:33 — tbucknerI have to wonder if the people posting these insults believe their own lives could stand up to public scrutiny.
Good luck with your store Elizabeth. I admire you for moving on with your life.
Huh ???? That hypothetical
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 20:47 — AgentPierceHuh ???? That hypothetical only works if any of us run for high office and declare ourselves above reproach ..... then lie continually as evidence to the contrary proves otherwise.
Families tragedies happen to LOTS of people in/out of the public eye. Only a certain type of person uses those tragedies to further manipulate others. To The Edwards "credit" their big con almost worked.
Mean spiritedness
Wed, 06/03/2009 - 06:21 — tbucknerI posed no hypothetical. Nor have I ever heard the Edwards declare themselves above reproach.
Besides the mean spiritedness of yours and other comments here, I am surprised by the blindness to the double standard you are imposing. First Elizabeth was wrong for 'standing by her man' and now she's wrong for starting her own business. Apparently under your double standard there is no way for this woman to pursue any peace. At least she has the integrity to use her own name.
Unbelievable. You must be an
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 20:15 — barbie50Unbelievable. You must be an Edwards' operative to have posted such an unbelievable comment. This isn't mean, petty or nasty...it is simply a recognition that the Edwards use their personal life to get ahead, which apparently works for the likes of you.
actually...
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 20:25 — jenpuettI am not any kind of operative. I am someone who sees all the really tough things that are happening in the world right now and rather than pile on Elizabeth Edwards (who has had enough of her own bad stuff happening) I choose to try to find some positive things. I'm very sorry that you are choosing to add to the negative. I won't be doing that. I was hoping that I might add a different perspective so attitudes might be adjusted. Doesn't look like that will happen so all I can do is wish you all a nice evening.
I can honestly say I have
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 19:54 — AgentPierceI can honestly say I have never accused her of hiding from the public eye. The thought of such baffles me.
Our disdain for this person could also be because there are elements to her behavior and personality that are not included in her well-worn N&O press kit we are force-fed week after week after week .....
She DID have universal sympathy after Wade's tragic death and her original cancer diagnosis. She long ago drained that well dry.

Tue, 06/02/2009 - 19:33 — DebrahSmartin' up.
If Elizabeth Edwards was interested in doing anything really positive that did not include getting attention, she would have taken NY Times columnist Maureen Dowd's advice long ago.
The woman is a self-indulgent drone who covered for her husband long after knowing about his relationship with Rielle Hunter----whose baby girl from their long relationship she called an "it"---because she craves a dose of power she has always been ill-qualified for.
Please do the public a favor and stop making excuses for this woman who continually invites media attention.
Most of us sit back in wonder.....as to why she and her husband ever thought they warranted such trust from those hardworking campaigners and donors.
Most people are simply tired of her entire family's self-serving sludge.
Duh, smarten up, Debrah -
Wed, 06/03/2009 - 09:54 — ClaudiusYou spelled it wrong. See how easy it is to find fault with someone?
unbelievable
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 19:08 — jenpuettWith all of the sad, horrible things going on in the world right now I find it very hard to believe that each of these posts can be so mean-spirited. I think it is wonderful that Elizabeth Edwards keeps moving forward. She is teaching her children and everyone else that, no matter what happens to you in life, just keep moving.
The people who say "she won't go away" are probably the same ones who accuse her of hiding when she is not in the public eye. I admire her for being true to herself and looking after her family. I cannot imagine how difficult it must have been for her to have gone through all of the things that she has gone through, much less going through them in front of everyone.
It saddens me to see that people are using this blog as a forum to criticize and promote negativity. There is enough negativity in the world as it is.

Wed, 06/03/2009 - 17:25 — kstanley1960I am so glad that you spoke up and stuck up for Elizabeth Edwards, she is a fine women.
Awesome!
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 18:03 — DebrahGee thanks, Mark.
I honestly don't know how anyone could have survived without this information.
Let's also alert the Edwards' former campaign manager, David Bonior.
Then alert John and Teresa Kerry. They might need to barf today.
And by all means inform Bob Schrum so that he can expound on the nausea-inducing Edwards clan in his next book.
His first book illuminated far too much about the Edwards.
Bet the local papers want to avoid any discussion of that.
Elizabeth Edwards' self-indulgent sideshow expired about 6 months ago.
Furniture?
Why is this woman not investing in a program to assist poor women with terminal cancer who cannot afford adequate health care?
As she lives off the money extorted in courtrooms full of ill-educated NC juries who went along with her charlatan "wandering" hubby's channeling of fetuses.......running good doctors out of business.
Furniture?
Indeed.
These low rent urchins need a few props.

Tue, 06/02/2009 - 16:08 — TarheelDragon"terminally ill?" How in the world can a terminally ill person have the energy to open a new business which takes 80-100 hours a week just to get OFF the ground?
Lord forgive me.... methinks this woman's "illness" was all a front to help her cheatin' hubby get elected as Prez!
Look for a "miracle cure" to put her back into the mainstream here shortly.
Elizabeth Edwards' furniture store
Tue, 06/02/2009 - 15:50 — barbie50The story says that the original store in Japan is managed as a charity. Does Saint Elizabeth plan to manage this store as a charity and do some good for someone other than her and her ambulance-chasing, cheating husband? Or, is this going to be yet another effort to feather the Edwards' nest?
