  1. That's a really nice article. I'd be running in for sure if I was in the neighbourhood. It'd be a relief to customers knowing that you deliver locally ... sometimes working out how to get something fabulous home is the biggest dilemma.

    Want that table!

    1. We were so pleased to be contacted by 360 West. I was expecting just a few lines, so you can imagine how happy I was when I saw a full page!

  2. Good article. The rhino is perfect for NaNoWriMo.

    1. Yes, the rhino might provide some inspiration. Do you participate in NaNoWriMo? I never have, but I just might this year. Of course, I've signed up for a string of Coursera courses through November, so that might prove challenging...but it does sound like fun.

    2. I do not do WriMO, no time. I have been trying to talk my sister-in-law into it. She loves to write.

    3. I almost signed up today after responding to your comment, but I decided to sleep on it. If I didn't have all the Coursera courses lined up already, I wouldn't have hesitated, and I suspect I'll still sign up.

  4. Great article Dana! It's so exciting for the store and your blog to get a write up! And your home tour got a mention too - nice! I also like how Joe delivers locally for free. There isn't much left in the world for free, but good old fashioned service and a smile certainly goes as long way.x

    1. The article certainly covered all bases, so we were very pleased! Joe really does try to accommodate his customers. Occasionally he talks about hiring a delivery service, but I think he really likes to see the customer's reaction when he sees his purchase inside his home.

  5. Very exciting Dana! Great article and mention of your blog and home tour also. If you were local, I'd probably camp out in the store, you'd never get rid of me.

    1. Yes, we were very excited! If you camped out, you'd be in good company. Lots of people get in the store and start talking to Joe and find it hard to leave. A couple showed up right at closing time the other day. Joe unlocked the door and turned the lights back on and visited with them for an hour and a half. :)
