The store

You may have heard rumors of my opening a store.  They are true.  I have made a new partner who is also the investor.  He owns the building in which we are in.  It is the upstairs rooms of the Towne Cinemas in American Fork, 120 W Main Street.

They were simply old storage rooms full of junk two weeks.  They are somewhat small but will work great for how I sell my suits.  I should have been taking before and after pictures but I haven't.  The painting is complete, save a few little touch ups.  I want to thank all of my friends and family that have helped me along the way.  We just finished laying the carpet Saturday.

We are going to paint the stairs black with red and white flakes in it; this is set to happen Tuesday.  The walls are white and the ceilings and finish moldings are black.  We have our inspection for fire code this week.  I hope to hang all of the racks as well and set up the cash register area and such by mid week.  Lights should be up and installed by Wednesday.  We still have to order mirrors.  If you think of any details I might be needing let me know.

I am really excited for this!  Our hours are Monday-Friday 3-9 and Saturday 12-7, or by appointment.  I am taking classes this summer and plan on studying a lot at the office when it's slow.  And if it gets busy I have a few guys that want to already sell for us, but I'm not going to hire anyone if I can't afford to...
