Page/Howell family + lovely Laura + Beer + Pizza + Paint

= an explosion of color and character at BCRC! Somehow getting paint on the walls made it seem all the more real. And we've received our first shipment (and therefor our first invoices...eek!) of shoes and apparel. The flooring will be installed next week (and it is a good thing we scheduled this after the not-so-tidy paint party!) Elodie was a trooper...second only to our fab friend Laura who had just landed from England and donated one full day of her precious vacation to us! Enjoy the photos and MASSIVE THANKS to everyone who pitched in!

the primer was very peach...
Paint fumes and alcohol...mmm.


Steady Hand Bethany (and Baby Howell) trimmed and trimmed and trimmed.

Hot Orange on two walls and Sunset Beige on the other two. Bright and sporty? We hope so! One woman wandered in and inquired as to what color orange it was because she'd been hunting for the "right orange" for her living room. Not sure it is such a spiffy choice for a living room, but that was all the confirmation I needed of our bold color choice:)
The Big Kahuna (the 18 inch roller, that is)

And Elodie did all she could to amuse herself.
