The construction on the new store is slowly coming along!
We are so anxious to move in.
Come on in a take a peek!
We hemmed and hawed over the paint colors and decided to stick with the original black trim with the brown walls. Everyone has white trim, black will be unique :)
The wall on the left was one of the newly built walls, and new track lighting that will eventually shine on pictures...
Soon to be black french doors that open from the retail area back to the work areas. You can see another new wall and new french doors inside leading to the new assembly room...
and the front retail area will soon have hardwood floors...

(and this will be fun!! ...want us to email pics in .jpeg format? or would even a link to a photo we've uploaded to flickr work?)
I wish I had a vintage pearl piece to take a picture of!! (And FYI - I think the date for the announcement is off by a month) ;)

I need to order so of your gorgeous jewelry! And snap a few photos :)
I'm so excited to see the progress, congrats!
LOVE the brown with black trim. I'm sure your shop will be gorgeous! Looking forward to the finished pics :)
Gosh, Erin...that is SO smart to have your customers send the pictures! Congratulations on the new store. Can't wait to see it.
How many times can you enter the contest? I have more than one necklace from you.
You can send as many pics as you would like!
I would sooo LOVE to do this, but I have yet to get a piece of your fine jewelry! One day! Hopefully soon..I don't have kids though, so I don't know what I would get. I would use my dogs' names, but I lost them in the break-up :( So sad!! What are some other things that people without kids get?
I love the black trim! The walls are a similar color to the ones we have in several main areas of our home and I love it...so easy to work with.
so excited for your new store! what an accomplishment!

We are so excited about your new store! We will definitely work on a picture to send you! Chris Ann & Kristin
Just ordered mine! Wish I would have it in time to send you a photo!
Erin, I haven't taken my necklace off since I got it months ago but I took it off today to photograph it! They turned out pretty good, I hope you like them, I'll be sending them this weekend.
Question: We are considering a second child. If/when this happens am I about to send my necklace back to you to add a new name and another bird?
I LOVE the black trim!!!! LOVE it!
