Seems like I already mentioned this somewhere. Anyway, there's an empty store front uptown (actually theres at least 3, but that's beside the point). It's right next to another gift shop, which is next to the coffee shop. I'll be sort of on the corner, next to a large, open, paved area. The owner is giving us 2 months rent free for cleaning up, repairing and painting the place, then he only wants $175 a month. Shoot, my ebay business can support the overhead! Mil has a bunch of crafts to sell. Sil makes cards. I have another sil to ask about her hand made beads and jewelry and yet another sil that makes benches and works with some MR kids that make birdhouses. I'm going to add mt angels and other inspirational things as well.
Uhg! The munchkins call. No rest for the weary, huh?

Karen, I'm so glad you have decided to give this a go. But...what does B&M stand for?
And yes, you did write to tell us a few days ago that you were thinking of opening a store. Congratulations, and best of luck!
