Popular OP antique furniture booth moving to new Brookside shop: ‘Really beautiful'

A popular antique furniture and interior design store that was previously a booth inside a Johnson County antique mall, is moving to its own storefront this week. Hydrangea House , which has over 11,000 social media followers, opened inside the Glenwood Antique Mall at 9030 Metcalf Ave in Overland Park last year. Mother and daughter duo Jessica Carpenter and Abigail Gaughan initially got a 164-square-foot booth and quickly expanded to a 2,000-square-foot space to better serve shoppers looking for curated vintage furniture and carefully reupholstered couches and chairs. “We just want to sit and talk to people, and it’s really hard to do that in an antique mall. If you’ve ever tried, it’s very challenging to have a conversation with somebody and sit down with them and talk to them about their house,” said Gaughan, the owner of Hydrangea House. Carpenter, the Hydrangea House’s Chief Creative Officer, is an interior designer by trade. Customers regularly seek her advice on anything from basic interior design tips to what color to paint a house’s exterior. “We have somebody who drives from Iowa the first weekend of every month to come see us, and she’s just adorable,” she said. Gaughan and Carpenter came

Johnson County café closes ‘with a heavy heart' after a year in business

After a year and a few months in business, a Johnson County international café has closed. Taiwanese-based chain 85°C Bakery Cafe , which has locations across the world, closed its Overland Park location on Halloween. The former bakery and coffee shop had signs on its door Monday morning that alerted fans to its exit. “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of our bakery …” the notice read in part. “We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all our customers for your loyalty, trust, and support over the years.” The lights were off and product had been moved out of the store. In June 2025, the location opened at 12061 Metcalf Ave., serving individually packaged pastries: jumbo guava cheese strudels, milk butter puff pastries, cocoa-dipped Danishes, pineapple cake and more. The opening day was received with long lines and excitement from fans who had been to 85°C’s locations in Hawaii, Texas and beyond. Around that same time, international chain Paris Baguette opened its first area location at 11137 W. 95th St. near Oak Park Mall. That chain, based in South Korea, now also has locations at 15895 Metcalf Ave. in Overland Park and 1360
