Today was so good. I'll tell you why… after almost two months of remodeling, sorting, cleaning etc… i saw the first glimpse of our new store looking like my 'dream store'. It's not easy to create a cozy and inviting retail space in a 6,000 square foot building, but it's really happening! I'm so happy. I'm super thankful to Emma and Jeremy for helping me create the atmosphere. Everything from the music to the Autumn scent to each and every display is a product of hours and hours of hard work and thoughtfulness. It's truly a labor of love and a team project. It feels like our home. I can't wait to share more. We're moving at lightning speed getting this place whipped into shape and ready for the grand opening on October 29th. Do you want to see photos tomorrow? XO.
