A Brush For Every Purpose
There is a bit of a running joke in the shop that we have a brush for everything. We like to joke about it but the truth is, we do! We have brushes for cleaning dishes and exfoliating your face.

We just wanted to share a few images from the shop and give you some information about when you might be able to visit us there again. Myself, Angie, and Luke loaded everything from the shop and brought it all over to the Arcade on Monday morning. We spent the day cleaning and drilling and getting all the furniture in place. Then I spent the following two days bringing more...
