Here (at last) are a few images of the new store.
I have to admit to being a little nervous about what you will all think.
Am I allowed to be a little biased? I think the space looks amazing, and I don't think these snaps do it justice. I am so excited about how it has all come together, even if right now I still feel so exhausted I'm sure I could sleep for days.
No window shots yet. They need tweaking! But what do you think of our wallpapered exterior? It's been a big talking point.
Anyway, I'll share more with you over the coming days if you'll allow.
And in the meantime, I'm so looking forward to browsing your beautiful blogs for a long overdue catchup on everything I've been missing.

ReplyDeleteAmazing Amanda! I miss Welly and your fab store. I go to Designer Guild on the Fulham Rd, but I still think NZ has the edge in terms of creativity! That's the VW flag wallpaper isn't it?

Truly the BEST store in Wellington, probably in NZ. Ones head so often rules in projects like this, but here it is so evident the heart has played a major role and you can feel it. Opening night was like discovering a beautiful treasure chest, and your team were all so proud, it was magic. Congratulations! xx
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jan. The store looks absolutely STUNNING!!! I can't wait to come down and check it out. Was sorry to miss the opening night - invite got lost in a bunch of junk mail. Stunning, gorgeous...Well done. xx
ReplyDeleteThe shop looks amazing, and I can't wait to pop in and see it in the flesh. I am so rapt that it is in a location that is more accessible for me - it means more visits - YAH!

Oh wow Amanda I definitely think you can give yourself a great big pat on the back for this this! It looks fantastic - I especially love the vintage papered (?) walls on exterior, your vintage mirror collection and all the lovely bright colours and that lamp shade is to die for!! Well done. xx
ReplyDeleteThe colors.
ReplyDeleteYes, the COLORS!!!
Maybe because we
are entering the
drab season here
in the Upper Midwest,
USA, but the colors
you are using in the
store just makes me
smile.

It's fabulous, Amanda, ever so colourful and inviting and pretty. I'd live in there and be the crazy lady who was always just about to pay at the cash desk when she saw something else that she MUST have and went off to a corner to exclaim over it. However did you manage to weatherproof the exterior wallpaper?
ReplyDeleteLooks superb Amanda - great work!
ReplyDeletewowsers - love the wallpapered exterior! The shop looks wonderful - congratulations - you must be thrilled (and a little exhausted)! I can't wait to pop in when we're back in Welly for Xmas.
ReplyDeleteah you see I completely missed that the store was ready Amanda. Wow it looks stunning. You must feel so proud!
