This was no April Fool's joke, rain or shine (and we had plenty of both that day), PAPAYA! was determined to open the doors this past Friday, April 1st for the Grand Opening. And grand it was! Family, friends, well-wishers, tourists and the curious shopper flocked to the new store PAPAYA! LIVING for champagne and cupcakes....and some fabulous shopping!
The store is a beautiful and ecclectic combination of PAPAYA! merchandise and well-known lines in the gift, beauty and jewelry industry. Not to mention some amazing imports from Guatemala and Mexico....tunics, pillows, purses....gorgeous. This is luxe boho at its best.
Eli, Gina and Anahata Katkin: a proud and happy moment for the family!
A peek inside the front window....
If you are in town or if you are coming this way, we would be thrilled to see you and share our excitement with this new venture..33 North Main Street, Ashland, OR 97520
Congrads! You two and crew did a wonderful job on the store. Hope to come down there this summer.

I was the first customer through the door and when the curtains were pulled back from the window - it felt like magic. Thank you for bringing such an amazing store to Southern Oregon! I can not wait to bring my friends.

Don‘t waste your time on a man/woman, who isn‘t willing to waste their time on you.
