Historical Tidbits

Bartlett Interiors traces its beginnings to 1960.

That’s when longtime Boulder residents, Joe and Betty Barnhill opened Barnhill Interiors at 1595 Folsom St., where the store remained until 1989. Jane Bartlett, a schoolgirl friend of the Barnhill’s daughter, worked at the store after graduating from Colorado State University in 1975.

After a decade of successful relationship building with hundreds of residents in and around Boulder, she bought the store when the Barnhill’s retired in 1984. Jane’s sister Nancy, joined the business in 1984.

About Jane Bartlett

Jane BartlettI remember it like it was yesterday. Betty Barnhill handed me a beautiful fabric remnant and said, “I know you’ll sew this into something beautiful.”

Betty and her husband Joe opened their store in 1960. Back then, it was called Barnhill Interiors. I went to school with the Barnhill’s daughter, Diana. I sewed much of my own clothing because, even then, I was quite tall and hard to fit. Diana and I often stopped at the store, and Betty sometimes presented me with a piece of fabric, so that I could make it into a piece of clothing. That’s how my love affair with the store started.

My sister Nancy and I are lifelong Boulderites. We were born and grew up in Boulder, which was much more of a small college town back then. I have lived my entire life, except for college at CSU and a couple of false starts in large chain department stores. It wasn’t a good fit – trust me. So, when the Barnhill’s offered to hire me as a designer right out of college, I didn’t hesitate. My roots and my heart are securely anchored in Boulder and its people. That won’t change.

I bought the store from the Barnhill’s in 1984. My entire career has unfolded there and I couldn’t have scripted things better. The residents we’ve served, the long-standing, deeply personal friendships I’ve made, and the satisfaction I feel each time a client tells me “I love what you’ve done” – makes me know I’m in the right place. Though we decided to close the store in the summer of 2022, we are still working with our clients on Interior Design Services.

About Nancy Bartlett

Nancy BartlettMy summers in Boulder as a child were filled with morning swim lessons at Spruce Pool and guessing who’d be that year’s Pow Wow Queen. I’ll never forget the summer day when the city paved the street we lived on. No longer did we live in the country, but we now lived in a city. Like my sister Jane, I’m a lifelong Boulderite.  (I don’t count the years I spent in Ft Collins attending CSU, nor the following four years in Colorado Springs.)

About the time I was considering a career change and moving back to Boulder, Jane was in the process of buying the store from the former owners, the Barnhill’s. Our sister Lois, made the not-so-subtle suggestion that Jane could use some help and, since I was looking to make a change … you get the picture. I’ve been with Jane, handling the administrative functions plus sharing the design work since she bought the store in 1984.

What amazes me to this day is how we bond with our clients. We have the capabilities and resources of a much larger business, but we don’t act “big”. We’re just us, working with each client on their terms, trying to go well beyond just doing a good job. When a repeat customer contacts us, it’s like picking up a conversation with a good friend. We take their ideas and preferences and help them visualize a successful outcome.
