Best Colorado Deal of the Week: Karma Interiors
How many times have you driven past the huge “STOREWIDE SALE 30%-60% OFF” at Karma Interiors, 160 Broadway, 303-282-5161, www.karmaInterior.com? Stop in next time. (There’s always a parking space out front.) Introduce yourself to Misael Bautista, and be sure to say “Hi” to his wife and young son. Most important, take a good long look at his magnificent inventory of vegetable-dyed, handmade rugs from Yayla, which supports educational opportunity for weaving families and others in India, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Is it sweater weather yet?
Fall doesn’t arrive until Sept. 21, but the fall lines are already on clearance at Coquette, 3003 E. Third Ave., 303-355-7770, where the deals included dresses from Elana Kattan, Komorav, Lily and Three Dot, originally priced at $129 to $270, now $49 to $190.
And speaking of summer’s end…
