Some pictures of the store--still a work in progress!


Here's the front, we actually have BOTH store fronts--way more space than we need. We're trying to figure out to do with the space on the West (right hand) side.


Here's the view as you walk in the front door. This is before we painted.

Here's the same view after we painted and brought in our front counter


Here's the view from inside, behind the counter looking out the front window


This is the kids play/waiting area, in the process of being painted. It's right off of the main store area, you can see the entrance in one of the earlier pictures.


This is the office/storage room we'll be using


And this is the bathroom. Little scary, trying to figure out how to pretty it up ;)



And now onto the other rooms. The whole place is an impressive 1200 sq ft, but it's divided into about 6 different spaces/rooms and was clearly designed as 2 separate shops. We're trying to figure out something productive to do with all the extra space. Bummer that it's not large enough to offer the homeschooling community.


This is a back storage room that leads out to a back entrance. We have been in discussions with the West Vancouver Buyer's club about possibly using this space as a drop-point/storage area.



This is the "cloud room" and doesn't have much use at all. It's not very large and I don't think the buyers club needs it. We may use it for overflow storage or a play area for Lilly. We've also been thinking about using this space as our office and using the current office as more store space if we want to grow some more.


This is the long creepy hallway between the cloud room and the other front area. Seems like a big waste of space. Not sure what to do with it at all.

And finally, here is the front entrance on the west side. Unfortunately there is no easy access between the 2 sides (you have to walk down the hall and through the storage area). Not sure how to utilize this space at all. Buyer's club may be able to use it, we'll have to see what they decide.

    just colored paint in the bathroom will go a long way!

  2. Yeah, I think we will paint it :) We've offered the other side to a buyer's club that I use--they should be able to use the extra space to grow and add more vendors. Hope it works out!
