I got my shop! pics inside!

This isn't really about grooming, this is about my shop so I hope it's ok here.
So I FINALLY got my shop!!! Got the keys today! Just went in after my horse show and did some looking around, seeing exactly what shampoos they had, trying to decide how we want to lay it out to accomodate everything, make things as easy and flowing as possible. Made a few bows, tried painting my dogs toe nails (he hated it cause he is very sensitive to smells and that stuff stank so I only did his front feet and did them REALLY quick)
We get our phone hooked up Saturday and hoping to kind of open Monday or as soon as we get our first booking. We can't use the number that we are fairly certain we will get on our ads yet cause they said they couldn't garuantee that number till we actually had our phone hooked up. Our computer we bought with everything didn't see to be starting properly but it just might need to have things reinstalled. We are trying to make appointments for debit/credit machines and get a fire inspection done.
Anyways tons more I need to think of and get done but here is the shop as it is right now.

Little retail area to the left as you walk in

this is to the right as you walk in, but this will be changed around as we are moving our front desk up a lot more

See those funny things off to the left in the last picture. Well they are wierd like stalls. Right now we will use one-two as add on rooms to our doggie daycare pens. the others will get kennels in them for grooming (so we can shut the door so the shop tays quieter from barking dogs in their kennel)
Eventually we want to remove these completely when we get more groomers and actually close off that area to make a long kennel room.

Grooming area and supply cabinet and such

I will add update pictures once we get our shop organized and running and the way I would like.
I am also working on a new and improved website. I actually am completely done but am having difficulties with getting the domain name, long story.
Anyways enjoy and tell me what you think!!

WOW Mystic!!! It looks lovely!!!!!!! I'm so glad you finally got your shop! I had no idea your plans were so far along, lol. It's a beautiful place--but I'm going to suggest a new paintjob for those walls when you guys get a chance.

Now, where is it at and when can I come get Middie groomed? :lol-sign:

Very cool! Congrats!

 

[MysticRealm]

Thanks guys, Yes the color on the walls is actually quite nice, it gives it a very elegant spa like feel. I want to move stuff around and add some grogeous black and white posters and pictures.

Congratulations! It must have taken a lot of work to get as far as you have. Make sure you find time to reward yourself!

Thanks, it took a lot of work paper wise and was very stress ful but this is actually how we bought it, so it wasn't really manual labor
