We own a paper boutique…..
The dust is eradicated! T and I spent hours yesterday cleaning the shop and then set about finally putting up the greeting cards. I feel like we have been waiting forever for this. Somehow placing the greeting cards marked the end of “we are opening a store” and the beginning of “we own this cute […]
No more dust!
Our window display shelves were finished Friday. I think they look great- ingeniously built by our handy man Mike. That officially marks the very last of the things that could cause massive amounts of dust to circulate the store. Yippee! We started the cleaning yesterday, today we are on a mission to completely eradicate every […]

Improvements
What do you think of the new look? While this is not our final final- it is a definite improvement over our previous cookie cutter blog. We do have a beautiful logo (designed by Erika of Delphine) and have just not had the time to have a proper “ta da VigRX” moment. Honestly- I think […]
Back from Holiday
We are home from holiday and have spent the last 48 hours diving back into the swing of things. It feels good to get back to sweet paper and this blog, which has been grossly neglected yet again. I was spurred into a new post when I found myself paralyzed by a candle order form. […]

We are selecting floors, paint, deciding where lights will go, and buying furniture that does not fit…. It can’t be all good all the time right? We happened upon an “estate sale” this weekend and picked up a pair of very cool mirrors and an amazing antique china cabinet. The cabinet is great, once it […]
