A NEW LOOK!







Good Afternoon Everyone!!


I have finally for the past week finished the painting that I intended to do in my shop.



Last Saturday I had a psychic come into my shop! Just by chance mind you. I was already in the process of this line of thought and figured who best to ask if I might be on the right track with my shop by adding some color!!!


Well, I asked and away we went. Everything that I was thinking about doing was on target with the happenings of the next couple of weeks.


I will show some before and after pictures of the front and inside. You will have about 3 pages to go thru and I will mark the pages.


I have had a blast painting this week and I LOVE the colors that I added as well. Once I have totally finished the outside. I am going to have the same kind of lettering that you will see on an old banner cut out and put on the outside of the wall above the shop. WE are talking BIG letters so that they stand out infront of the color purple. YES purple! It's a big difference from the metal that was on their before and the ugly look that it had as well. I still have the awning in front of the shop because right now I am using that as scafolding to do the work. I will still have it up for another two weeks probably until I get the letters cut myself and then glued on to the wall.



Well I have some other work to do tonight, I hope that you are enjoying these blogs and updates (well I will try to be more intuned with my own diary (blogs)) and hope to hear from you soon.



Remember, I have pictures to show you. Here goes.--well a couple on this page as well.




First will be an old look---then a partial new look




This is how the store front looked on my side as well. This old building used to be the old Vandergriffs Jewelry Store way back when. This purple building now.....is MY NEWLY RENOVATED LOOK. I stuccoed the walls on Sunday and then painted it purple today.
As I mentioned the awning will have to stay up for a couple of weeks until I get the lettering done. But pretty cool don't you think? I sure do!!


Later aligator.
