Preparation - Inside
The inside of the building was great when we first
saw it (the before pictures below are actually photos from our first
tour through the building). We replaced the lighting (including
the ceiling fans) and painted the entire space.
Although the task was daunting, we had an enormous
amount of help from a great group of volunteers.
Before
We rented a beautiful space with wood floors and
a tin ceiling.

We took down the old lighting and ran conduit for
the new lighting . . .

Here's the back corner, which includes a bathroom
and dressing room.

The ceiling after we painted it (sorry, we don't
have pictures of what we looked like after painting the ceiling
with a paint sprayer, but you can imagine) . . .

Our new lighting . . .

The first wall painted!

The front of the store . . .

The newly painted dressing room. Thanks to betsy
berkey for the wonderful stencil work!

The back of the store, fully painted. We replaced
the old ceiling fans, too.

After
The floor cloth in the entryway was designed by
betsy and painted by Kirstin.
