The owner of a clothing, accessory and home décor business is closing her Lumina Station store this month.

Jenna McKnight said the change is a positive one that will allow her to devote more time to the downtown location of Aqua Fedora and her new business, AQUA Home Staging.

“Since we had recently taken on the whole home-staging thing, I was getting spread pretty thin,” McKnight said Wednesday. “I didn’t want the shopping experience to go by the wayside. I want the store to be great, so it would be easier if I had just one retail location to make sure I can focus on making it great.”

McKnight (at left) is revamping the downtown Aqua Fedora, 30 N. Front St. She had moved the downtown store to Front Street in 2012 after first opening her business in 2009.

“My heart is downtown because that’s where we started, and I feel at home there,” McKnight said.

The last day of business for the Lumina Station Aqua Fedora, located in Unit 40 of the shopping, dining and office center at 1900 Eastwood Road, is scheduled to be May 9. A sale in advance of the closing will be held this weekend, beginning Friday.

The downtown Aqua Fedora will be closed May 11-12 as part of its renovation, reopening May 13, McKnight said.

As she prepares to leave the 2,200-square-foot Aqua Fedora space the store has occupied at Lumina Station for three years, McKnight is also working to build her home staging business.

McKnight said her sister, Realtor Julie Phillips of Lanier Property Group, encouraged her get into the home-staging business, and McKnight has staged a home with Lanier Property Group Realtor Fran Downey that has been featured in one of Downey's advertisements.

“I’ve always loved interior design. This is the first time I’m actually doing something with it,” McKnight said. “I’m able to use my creativity to do quirky little things and do my own vision. I get to play with a blank canvas of a house.”
