The T Shop is Lakewood’s neighborhood flower and gift shop, founded by Lori Trent in 2009. The Trent family has proudly called Lakewood home for over 30 years, staying active in local events—especially the beloved Lakewood 4th of July Parade.
Lori grew up in Arizona, where she studied Advertising and French at Arizona State University. After moving to Texas with her husband, Matthew Trent, they opened Matthew Trent Jewelry in 1988. While Matthew created unique jewelry pieces, Lori managed the shop’s business and marketing side.
Years later, Lori started creating special gift-shop setups for parties at their Cedar Springs location. In 2009, she seized the opportunity to open her very own standalone shop in Lakewood—and The T Shop was born.
Today, The T Shop has become Lakewood’s "Happy Place," offering thoughtfully curated gifts, fresh seasonal flowers, and succulents. Located in the historic Deiner Mills building (formerly the Lakewood Library), The T Shop continues to grow alongside the community they love.
