Pics....continued

New store pics...interior



Not that different from our old showroom....the difference is in the "behind the scenes" parts of the store.

New Closeout Gifts!



When you relocate your business, a funny thing happens...all sorts of odd bits and pieces turn up. Containers left over from big projects, off-season inventory that got lost in the shuffle and things we just plain bought too much of (6 cases of stuffed gorillas? Really? What was I thinking????). And often, our vendors will discontinue an item in one of our standard gifts, which forces us to redesign it - which in turn leaves us with orphan inventory.

Now that things are getting back to normal, we had time to create some fun, creative gifts using up some of that inventory - and we've added them to our "Closeout Gifts" section at deep discounts...at or below cost.

We've added some beautiful new gifts to our regular catalog as well - take a look!

...and we finally have a number on the building. We appreciate everyone's patience in tracking us down at our new location.

Our new signs are up!



Absolute Sign and Awning did a TERRIFIC job on our new signage! Thanks Corinna!

Landscaping



As we wind down the last of our projects inside the building (and the last of the frost warnings...hopefully), we're starting to tackle the outside. I spent last weekend pulling up 2 foot tall weeds, lugging in soil, and planting new shrubs and perennials in the front of the store. This weekends project: start working on the area that runs the whole length of the building along our parking lot.
