Open
I don’t have a lot of time to write – the store opens in 5 minutes! I have to say, that while it wasn’t too terribly stressful or extra difficult, the month of July has been the LONGEST month of my life! But I am so pleased with what I accomplished.
Here is the store in all it’s glory, look here for the before pics. I’m still waiting on 3 shipments of yarn, some back orders, some more books and some patterns, but most everything is in.

That is the cutest yarn store ever! It looks like it would be so much fun to shop there. If I lived anywhere near you, I would definitely visit (and spend) often. :) Great job with the painting. Even my husband was impressed!
