Plant Crafters' last sale: Liquidation auction to be held April 1

The Plant Crafters era in Westlake is over. After 30 years on Center Ridge Road, the Burnett family decided to close their garden center and retire.

Known for their high-quality home decor and gift items, owners Molly and Bruce Burnett will miss the generations of customers they served. "Plant Crafters was a labor of love," said Bruce. "We truly enjoyed providing our buyers with items you couldn't find in the big box garden stores."

A live public auction will be held on Saturday, April 1, 10 a.m., to liquidate everything remaining in the Westlake store. Items include nursery stock and related horticultural items, firewood, a forklift, vintage and antique furniture and thousands of home and gift items.

The timing is perfect with spring just arriving, and everything will sell to the high bidders regardless of price.

Auction goers can preview the facility located at 26185 Center Ridge Road from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, March 30 and 31, or beginning at 8 a.m. the morning of the auction.
