Shawnna Willis opened Gracey’s Boutique on Saturday to bring children’s clothing to California. The boutique is full of boys and girls clothing and accessories, natural products and some home decor pieces.

Gracey's Boutique had its grand opening Saturday at 302 Southeast Terrace.

Owner Shawnna Willis opened the shop to give the community of California something it was missing - children's clothes.

The store has boys and girls clothing all local to the United States, natural products, decor pieces and accessories.

"I decided I wanted to carry natural products because I don't like all the chemicals," Willis said. "I wanted to carry cute clothing, but not cheap, junky clothing."

Willis said she started the store after she had two miscarriages and needed something to keep herself busy. She named Gracey's after her daughter, whom she lost in 2018.
