Liberty home goods and juice store to open second location in North Kansas City
A gift shop based in Liberty is set to open a second location this month in North Kansas City.
Lemonality, which sells fresh squeezed juices, home goods, party supplies and stationery at 10 W. Kansas St., is opening a second shop inside North Kansas City’s Iron District on March 14.
Owner Tawni Jedwski, 34, opened Lemonality in 2022 after having an online Etsy store. At that point, she had gotten tired of selling online and wanted to open a brick and mortar store instead.
“At that point, I had never worked a day of retail in my life, so I truly had no clue what I was doing. I just knew I wanted it to be a fun and a happy place,” she said.
Jedwski sells both local products made locally and from around the country, emphasizing small businesses she can relate to.
The new storefront will be tiny, inside the Iron District, 1599 Iron St., an outdoor food court made of repurposed shipping containers. Jedwski said she is being strategic with shelving inside the unit to maximize the amount of things that can fit inside.
“We wanted to get closer to downtown. There’s a lot of people that don’t know about us, and we’ve been around for almost four years, and the juice and lemonade thing has been a really fun addition to our store,” Jedwski said.
Lemonality introduced the drink bar two years ago in Liberty to add another fun twist to the store. The menu has two sides: customizable freshly squeezed lemonade and cold pressed juices. There are six staple juices on the menu, and rotating flavors of the week, according to Jedwski.
“You choose your sweetness level,” she said. “We do lots of specialty flavors, so we try to do themed with the holidays or with events in Kansas City.”
Shoppers can expect the second Lemonality location to have a good mix of merchandise sold in the Liberty location, including puzzles, candles and Kansas City-themed items. It will not, however, sell party supplies and balloons like at the Liberty location, according to Jedwski.
“We want people to say, ‘Wow, we’ve never seen this before’,” she said. “‘This is so different, I’ve never seen this company or brand,’ and that’s just what I try to do.”
Jedwski hopes in the future to expand to another unit in the Iron District to have space for a second fresh juice bar. Until then, the second location will sell bottled juices freshly squeezed at the Liberty location.
The shop will be located next to the next to Melt Box ice cream and will be open Thursday through Sunday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
