Let the move commence...

Today is the day. Danny from Winmar promised us that he'd have us back in the shop the first week of December and here we are on December 3rd working to that goal.

Moving into the temporary location had it's issues but moving back has proved more challenging. With the Downtown Association event Moonlight Magic, we needed to have our store decorated for Christmas by mid-November. Where the challenge comes in is this - we have three large fully decorated Christmas Trees. How exactly *do* you move three decorated trees? The answer - palette wrap which is basically cello wraps bigger badder brother. A special thank you goes out to Duane van Staalduinen from Staalduinen Wholesale who came up with the idea and means for palette wrap!

Over this weekend, we will be moving back to our regular location at 324 Queen St. E. There will be a temporary disruption in phone and debit/credit services this afternoon but we don't anticipate that they will be long.

We will post updates throughout the day.
