So its official!  My sister and I are opening a Brick and Mortar shop and though the stress is high the excitement is even higher!  I have been selling my work for years at boutiques across the nation and have toyed with the idea of opening one myself.  My sister and I began discussing the idea and decided to take a stroll in MainStrasse village of Covington, KY.  By chance we walked by a shop with a rent sign in the window that was right on the main square.  After some serious thought we decided to take the leap.

We have spent a lot of time at Target and Ikea as well as at the shop to try and get it ready to open August 1st.  My sister took on the painting task and the result is a beautiful heather gray.  I got the fun task of permits and license hunting which is not an easy task on a 5 week time table.  Josh and Adam are taking on the website building and I am positive the results will be wonderful just like all the other projects Handcrafted builds.  We have contacted several artisans and already have many onboard that we are very excited about.  Stay tuned to my blog as I will be doing a feature blog post every day about different individuals consigning in the shop all the way up until the grand opeing August 1st of Pivot Boutique and gallery.
