Sadly, another Milwaukee business is closing its doors at the end of this month. Anomaly Design Shop, the Brady Street gift boutique, will close Feb. 1. Located at 816 E. Brady St., Anomaly opened in 2006 to sell kitschy, design laden gifts, paper goods and accessories inspiring creativity.

A press release from co-owners Sara Schumacher and Dan Petry explains that the current economic situation clearly has impacted the closing but the duo also wishes to further pursue work in graphic design and wholesale product business.

Don't worry, you've still got a few days to stock up at Anomaly. Sales run today through the end of January; with savings growing greater as the looming day of closure draws nearer. Check the store's Web site for details.
