Pea Pod Consignment Gallery to open in downtown Wellington

WICHITA — Before driving to Wellington to look at some property for a second consignment shop, Three Pea: Organize, Design, Stage co-owner Gary Streepy put his interest level at about a five on a scale of one to 100.

“So now we’re doing one,” he says, laughing.

Streepy and Kristen Awe are opening Pea Pod Consignment Gallery at 115 S. Washington in Wellington on Sept. 14.

Their Wichita consignment shop of the same name is within their Three Pea business at 1646 E. Second St.

“I have enough furniture to completely stock that store,” Streepy says of his new 4,000-square-foot space.

“It’s going to be exactly like our store here.”

Pea Pod sells consignment furniture, lamps, accessories and area rugs.

“We do some pretty cool stuff,” Streepy says.

He says the Wellington space is pretty cool, too.

“I love downtown deals,” Streepy says, pointing to the tin ceilings the space still has from years ago.

“Quite honestly, I don’t have to do a single thing to the building.”
