Mill Update

There is only a few weeks left until we will be open for business and things are starting to come together. We decided for now the best thing to do was rent space in town until we get going. We found a great space in an old woolen mill that is rich in fiber history. We thought that this would be really neat to have a new mill inside of an old mill. By doing a lot of the work ourselves we are saving on some rent as well. Today we got all the plywood up and put a coat of paint on 3/4 of it. Being 61/2 months pregnant during all of this I can only do so much, so I need my husband to paint the ceiling (I'm a little clumsy so I don't dare go that far up a latter). This weekend our plan is to go on the biggest shopping spree to home depot (what guy won't love this; buy tons of stuff and his wife won't complain) to buy the sinks, faucets, buckets, shelving, and so many other things that I can't think of right know because I'm so tired.
The one thing that we did forget to do is take before and after pictures of what the space looked like. It has changed so much with just a coat of paint. I can't wait to see what the mill is going to look like when it is all done. I am going to try and get down there tomorrow and take some pictures that I can't post here and also on my web page so people know what the building looks like when they come to visit. Well I must go, My little girl will be up bright and early ready to play.
