Renee’s, a third-generation family owned and operated fashion and furnishings retailer in Mattituck, owned by the Gildersleeve family, first opened in 1978 as a boutique selling women’s clothing and accessories. It is run by Debra Gildersleeve and her husband William, who transformed it into a luxury department store. They fell into the furniture business by accident by using different pieces of furniture to display jewelry and clothing, and customers then began asking if they could buy the displays. Debra works with clients personally to design an array of rooms, choosing everything from grout colors to lighting fixtures, in addition to furniture and home accessories. The showrooms feature hundreds of brands and thousands of pieces in endless styles, including modern, rustic-chic, traditional, contemporary, industrial, and of course beachy designs. Debra reflects, “Offering design ideas to clients is one of the main aspects of our work!”

The shop is quite unique, featuring one-of-a-kind vintage furniture from the 1920s to the 1990s. Giving furniture a fresh, exciting, and unexpected look, they also offer a variety of home décor such as stained glass, lamps, candles, hooks, framed wall hangings, and some humorous signs. In addition they do repairs, restorations, painting, and refinishing. Since their mission is to recycle and reuse, they do not use any harsh chemicals and only eco-friendly paint and finishes. Joanne reveals, “We have repurposed an old sewing machine cabinet into a portable wet bar, and dry sinks to changing tables. Someone once brought in an old church pulpit and we repurposed it to a bar! We love to bring old pieces back to life.” therepurposeproject.com
