GRAND OPENING


Hi everyone:)
Hope you are all enjoying the Summer. It it going by way to fast again this year or is it me?

Well, as you know Nicole and I are opening up our little dream shop, Maison St. Germain, La Boutique. It is VINTAGE STYLE WITH ECLECTIC FLAIR. We enjoyed doing it so much online and now wanted to actually open up a store front. It will be a bit more personal for us to actually meet our customers in person. Something we really look forward too.
We just love everyone who stopped in to peek and the wonderfully kind and encouraging words.

SO!!!!!!!! We will be having our 'SOFT OPENING' tomorrow on Wednesday!!!! AND our GRAND OPENING on Saturday July 28th 12:00!!!

I wanted to show you some more photos of what we have been very busy creating. Now remember it is only 640 square feet so we have to pack a lot of personality into one small space. We are so happy with how it turned out and it will be changing weekly:)

As I mentioned in a previous post, we hand painted diamond on the floor and used lots of color throughout the store. Oh, we still have 'whites' but with lots of pops of color:)
Our VINTAGE VIXEN clothing line too:) And vintage clothing, shoes, scarves...............Something for everyone. Nicole wears vintage almost every day and would be more than happy to help you with finding a great outfit.

Hats, mirrors, furniture, home decor and more!

We re purposed many things too. We just love doing that.
The men even have their own masculine area:)
We turned this antique crib into a settee with a feather/down covered mattress. Sooooo comfy. After working long days on the shop, it sure was temping to crawl into and take a little nap:)
                  Vintage hats, sunglasses and jewelry makes it a fun shop.
Kitchen decor and chic feeders. I use my chic feeder at home as a planter for chic-n-hens.
                        Isn't this oil painting gorgeous!!!!!! We just love her.
           An assortment of fabulous lampshades made with vintage trims.
We will have coffee and cookies on this great little white table on Saturday and hope you pop in to visit:)
   Hope you enjoyed the photos and can't wait to see you!

'Till next time...............
