March 14, 2003 marked the grand opening of Giggles, a vibrant addition to Decatur's retail scene co-founded by Lou Ann Jacobs of Del's Popcorn Shop and Mark and Wendy Morthland. Nestled in the heart of downtown, Giggles quickly established itself as a go-to destination for whimsical gifts and joyful finds.
With a diverse array of offerings including cards, jewelry, and eclectic gifts, Giggles curated a selection that reflected its founders' vision of a "fun and funky" atmosphere. Lou Ann Jacobs described the store as "giggly" and aimed to create a space that exuded happiness and delight.
The store also featured popular items from Del's Popcorn Shop, enhancing its appeal with delicious treats and gourmet popcorn tins that complemented its whimsical theme. This collaboration brought together the best of both worlds: unique gifts and beloved local flavors.
Giggles continues to uphold its founding principles of joy, creativity, and community, welcoming patrons to discover unique treasures and indulge in the cheerful spirit that defines both Giggles and Del's Popcorn Shop.
