Struthers couple offer one-of-a-kind, affordable decor at Ashli's Attic


STRUTHERS

Struthers’ locals have noticed that a new business made its home at 11 Poland Avenue.

The storefront had been vacant for more than a year. Ashli’s Attic, a Struthers’ couple’s home-decor and refinishing business, moved into the location officially Monday, and both its store owners reported they’ve got walk-ins every day.

Ashli Zinkhon, co-owner of the shop, said she and Adam Reuss, her boyfriend and co-owner, have been working for about two months to clean the vacant storefront for their business. She said the shop has a completely different feel from when they started cleaning.

Rustic, homemade decorations and furniture now line the walls of the shop, ready for customers to purchase. The back room is filled with customization projects customers send to the couple.

The chalkboards, picture frames, side tables and chairs scattered along the walls of the shop mostly cost within the $15 to $30 range. All have a unique, hand-finished paint job done to them that either Zinkhon or Ruess added to it.

“We want to offer locals one-of-a-kind type home decor – things not everyone will have,” Zinkhon said. “And a big thing is to keep prices reasonable since I want the average person to be able to afford to come here and buy something nice for their home.”
