Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

We are often asked why it is taking so long to open shop, but if you think about how far we've come in only one month, you can see that it's not so long.

We have had a lot to do - knocking down walls, moving doors & a good old-fashioned scrubbing down was necessary to fit a boutique into a space previously used as a waiting room.

The paint was an easy choice - the Gold has followed us through 3 home renovations & currently resides on the walls of our new home here as well. The Sienna color was derived from my favorite lipstick color, believe it or not. I have always had an eye for color and I think I made an excellent match for this space.

The space in the back of the room was converted from a hearing test room into what will come to be known as the "Barkery". A counter topped with clay tile and shelves lined with cookie jars will consume the space where we are anxious to spend our days.

Things have been moving right along, and the cement was reconstructed at the front door, to which some old carpet took residence - it is defenately looking LaDeDog! and I am so thankful to be able to put the time and love into making this the perfect little nook for us.
