This week the shop where I work part time is having a complete make over ... a total re-fit ... change of name and everything ... its going to be great, but its got me thinking about my old shop ... I used to have a gift shop in Redruth, Cornwall selling my handmade jewellery, cards and other hand made and fair trade gifts. I have dug out some photos to show you ...
I can't believe it was 10 years ago ... I loved having it and had some lovely customers ... one of whom I bumped into last month ... and she remembered me even though I am now in a totally different county.
... this is the window ... looking in from the outside ...
... my till area and seating for tired customers ...
... my greetings card ...
... fair trade gifts ...
... my dad built my shop fittings and most of the stands ...
... under the window ...

ReplyDeleteYour shop was beautiful! I would love my own little shop to sell things in, it'd be really exciting. Lovely how you were remembered after such a long time too. :) xxx
