They’ll also have drawings for gifts from Johnny Was and Chan Luu, plus gift cards to nearby restaurants. Owner Kathy King loves the energy of the local community, bringing many Colorado designers into the Barbara & Company fold. “There’s so much talent in our state. We enjoy sharing these designers’ works with our customers.”
