another week closer
We are finally entering the pedal to the metal week at our new shop in Ann Arbor. Everything is finding it’s place (including the awning) and this week it’s all about getting pretty products placed in the shop.
Here’s a quick tour of how things are coming together… 
My dear friend, Aly stopped by on Saturday & yarn bombed our lengthy limbs we have scattered throughout the store. I’m also loving these cool vintage inspired spools to hang our handbags.
The kitchen space is starting to fill up. Our lovely little craigslist kitchenette didn’t come with burners so we just fastened these pots to the stove top as permanent display pans.
I had lots of fun filling up our bath hutch with jars of Hydra shower bursts, soaps, teas & chill pills. The dressing room curtain is actually sheet from Target dressed up with fancy fabric & yarns. (We’ll be carrying Ellembee tees) I’ve mastered pounding nails in mortar… after bending numerous ones first ;-) Also so excited to be offering Cellar Door soap here too!
Necklaces will soon be hanging on clipboards and our smaller side of the shop is starting to take shape too. This is what Katie & Elliot will be doing the rest of the week as our new crew prices & displays things feverishly. Now I need to go to bed so I can refuel and head back to the firefly frenzy tomorrow.

Thanks Melissa – We are pretty excited how it’s turning out :-)
Your magic touch is turning this store into a wonderland of color. I can’t wait to visit!
Thanks Lynn! It’s been loads of fun starting with a blank canvas. This has inspired us to give Berkley a facelift this spring too!
So excited you’re coming to my neck of the woods. We moved from Bloomfield Township to Superior Township a year and a half ago. Welcome to the neighborhood. :)
OMGoodness!! Your shop is so incredibly cute and cheery I can hardly stand it!!! Mostly because I live out in Oregon now and I can’t visit it person. You rock! Love, Love, Love it! Congratulations!
Thanks Kelly! We can’t wait to bring our world of whimsy to Ann Arbor :-)
I am so happy you are coming to Ann Arbor. I do not get to Berkeley very often but I do go to A2 all the time. Your shop looks like it is on a familiar site. Is it in Kerrytown area across from Zingerman’s ? I sure hope so because I am there every week. Good luck, I know you will do well.
Hi Cindi,
We are at 419 Detroit St. right across from Zingerman’s :-) Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Looks so good! What is the Ann Arbor address? Want to bring my co-workers for a shopping extravangaza !
Thanks ! Welcome to the “hood” !
Thanks Pat! We are at 419 Detroit St. right across from Zingerman’s. Looking forward to making your day brighter very soon :-)
