I took some pictures to track the progress of the store and wanted to share them with you. The inside of the store has changed a bit now with the addition of a storage area and dressing room but those pictures will be in another post.
First, here is a picture of the building itself. We are located right on the corner, with a 4-way light right out the front door. You couldn't ask for better business exposure.
This is the inside of the store. It's one big room with a bathroom, a small storage area, and a back door being located behind the door on the far left in this picture. It totals 940 sq ft. Not big by any means but perfect for our venture...
This is a picture from the other end of the room, looking out towards the front door...
After changing out the locks and giving the place a thorough cleaning, the signs went up to let the neighborhood know what's ahead...
Opening up a business takes a tremendous amount of time and effort but so far it's been well worth it, and the true fun hasn't even started yet. We have so so much to do but are planning and shooting for a July 1st opening. I'm heading back down to Long Beach tomorrow for another week and hopefully we can start pricing and organizing things by the end of the week. It's all a step by step process but now we're getting into the fun stuff!
More pictures and info soon!
